Imposter Syndrome - The Perfectly Timed Kick We All Need .

Hi , I'm thrilled to connect with you today!

I recently wrapped up the last of five ConvertKit workshops hosted by Jessica, and I must say, I was a bit sad to see them end. Jessica is incredibly knowledgeable and an excellent teacher. In my humble opinion, she truly has a knack for "doing all the things" and doing them well.

It came as a surprise when Jessica opened up about experiencing Imposter Syndrome. Perhaps it resonated so deeply because of my own uncertainties about achieving my goals and feeling like I might not measure up to others. Her honesty was refreshing and comforting.

It's a common feeling, isn't it? That mix of excitement and uncertainty when stepping outside our comfort zones. But it's also how we grow and reach new heights. Moving forward, I'm going to view that familiar twinge of doubt as a sign of growth. Although I might be dubbed "the Introverts' Introvert," building this Fiberarts community has stretched me in the best ways possible—and I absolutely love it!

As we continue on our creative journeys, let's remember that feeling a little out of our element sometimes is just part of the process. It's the stretch that leads to growth. Thanks for being a part of this vibrant community, where each of us, with all our unique talents and occasional doubts, can find encouragement and a place to thrive.

Eye Candy - YUM:

I stumbled upon this picture by Amalia Versaci on Pinterest quite some time ago. Unfortunately, I couldn't track her down to give proper credit—apologies to Amalia!

Creating this belt was a blast! If you, like me, always have bits and pieces lying around, this project is ideal. My friend absolutely adored her funky belt!

Why not try something new?

This is crazy good! The pattern, if it can still be found is in Russian. Such talent!
