Overcoming Imposter Syndrome in Business & Creativity

Have you ever walked into a room full of creatives, leaders, or entrepreneurs and thought to yourself, “Do I even belong here?” That feeling—known as imposter syndrome—is something so many of us face, especially as creative entrepreneurs carving out our own paths.
In this video, I’m sharing my honest experience with imposter syndrome: what it feels like, how it shows up in our creative work, and the strategies I use to keep moving forward even when self-doubt creeps in. Whether you’re a dancer, writer, business owner, or any type of creative, this conversation is for you.
We’ll talk about:
✅ Why imposter syndrome is so common for creative entrepreneurs
✅ The difference between healthy humility and destructive self-doubt
✅ Practical steps to silence that inner critic and step into your power
✅ How to reframe your perspective so you can keep creating boldly
If you’ve ever second-guessed your worth, questioned your talent, or struggled to own your seat at the table, you are not alone. My hope is that this video leaves you inspired, grounded, and ready to embrace your journey with confidence.
