You put this so well! : 'When you catch yourself carried along on a mental path that upsets you, notice what’s happening and gently bring yourself back to something you want to focus on.' Your article absolutely resonated with me as you can imagine. So glad you are on a happier path now
I really connect with this take on imposter syndrome, especially the idea of rejecting the label of "syndrome" altogether. It’s refreshing to see someone push back against the notion that feeling out of place means something is wrong with you. The way you’ve transformed those inner critics into allies is proof that we have more control over our thoughts than we often realize. Your approach of embracing your unique mind and focusing on self-love really hit me as well. I can see how shifting perspectives like that can be transformative. Thanks so much for sharing this. Gives me much to think about in terms of how I handle my own inner demons.
