I’m not really someone who posts on LinkedIn, but I wanted to share this in case anyone else has ever felt the same, because imposter syndrome is terrible.
Last September, I was laid off, which was a huge shock, especially since I had just moved cross-country and wasn’t expecting to be without a job. The job search that followed was the hardest I’ve ever experienced (sending support to anyone currently in the same boat).
After months of searching, I finally landed a new job. However, a few weeks in, my manager left, and the imposter syndrome hit me hard. Suddenly, I was on my own, relying solely on my knowledge and instincts. Despite the challenges, I was recently named the MVP of Q1!
I just wanted to express my gratitude to this incredible community. I’ve always been a team of one since moving from sales to customer marketing, and I owe so much of my success to the support and resources I’ve found here. Thank you all for being such an amazing source of inspiration and help!
YESSS CARA! I'm not surprised to hear this at all...you're awesome and I'm glad your coworkers know it too!
I remember meeting at the obsession event a few years back - you deserve the success and more!
Wooo 🥳
CARA — Never stop being you because you’re amazing and taking logos & getting quotes all day long!!
Yay, I’m so happy for you. I hope the success keeps coming!!
Oh and today in a business course I heard this; Imposter syndrome never ends. So keep an eye on who’s one step ahead and just keeping moving. Pick excellent over perfect and take action.
Boost! Go Cara!
@Mary Green (Owner CMAweekly) someone recently told me the phrase “don’t let perfect be the enemy of good” and has totally helped my workflow!
