3 strategies to transform imposter syndrome [Wise Wednesdays (the Summer Shorts ☀️)]
I didn’t attend my PhD graduation. I didn’t feel it was that big a deal. Now I know that PhDs can exacerbate imposter syndrome and take a serious toll on self-esteem. I can’t help but wonder if that’s why I passed up the opportunity to celebrate mine… Imposter syndrome affects 70% of us at one time or another and is particularly common among high achievers and women. 3 signs to look out for indicating that you may have imposter syndrome are: ✋ You regularly feel that you’re n

You don’t need permission [Wise Wednesdays (the Summer Shorts ☀️)]
You don’t need permission to do what you’re here to do. YOU are responsible for your choices and their consequences. That’s your privilege as an adult human being. Stop waiting for permission, validation or encouragement to do what you’re here to do (or to stop doing what isn’t yours to do anymore). Artists don’t wait for permission. Why should you? Have a great week, Amina

Often it depends on the context and what triggers you to collapse and abdicate your power; or to contract and abuse it. Each with their consequences… Two pol

I know this place. It requires gentleness, patience and a lot of love. It’s the source of deep wisdom and gifts if treated well. The culture tells us that healing is a thing we do as a separate activity to ordinary work and life. Maybe you take some time out and go to a doctor or healer (
