Episode 6: Is Imposter Syndrome Affecting Your Art?

As artists continuously aspiring to new creative heights, it’s only natural to question our status along the way. “Am I going the right way?” and “Do I belong here?” are questions worth considering. But if you find yourself struggling to answer these in the affirmative, you might relate to what is known as “imposter syndrome”. We cover this topic in Episode #6.Imposter syndrome can be debilitating, with feelings of inadequacy and self-doubt. We may feel like we’re posing as an artist and, in spite of our success, fear the imposter within will eventually be exposed.It’s important to realize imposter syndrome is a normal part of being an artist, or human for that matter. The mindset, though, is generally self-induced, imagined, and unfounded.If you’ve had thoughts or feelings of being unworthy of the praise your art has delivered, you’re not alone. Mama Judy and I share some of our experiences and how we overcame bouts of imposter syndrome.
