Overcome the Imposter Monster

Ever heard of impostor syndrome? It's this sneaky little phenomenon that makes you doubt your abilities and feel like a total fraud, even when you're rocking it. Yeah, it's a real thing, and guess what? You're not alone. Impostor syndrome affects so many of us, from high achievers to everyday folks just trying to make it in this crazy world.

So, let's break it down. Impostor syndrome is basically that voice in your head telling you that you're not as smart, talented, or deserving as others think you are. It's that nagging feeling that sooner or later, everyone will discover you're a big ol' fake. Sound familiar? Yeah, it's a total mind game, and it can mess with your confidence big time.

IRREPLACEABLE YOU

I’m currently wiping away the last tears from my red, puffy eyes. My emotions have been striped bare and I’m feeling deeply reflective. There’s nothing like a good Rom-Com to pull on your heart strings.

“Irreplaceable You” is about a woman who thinks that she’s pregnant, only to learn that she has an incurable tumor instead. No spoiler-alert necessary, you can guess how it ends.

Beyond being a highly emotional empath to begin with, I felt especially impacted by this film because the dying woman is my age. This is a new experience for me.

20 REASONS WHY YOU NEED TO START TAKING OMEGA’S

20 REASONS WHY YOU NEED TO START TAKING OMEGA’S

Reflecting on my journey, I am filled with gratitude at the amount of love, abundance and joy in my life; though it wasn’t always this way. This got me thinking about my struggle with depression. While there are many ways to manage depression, one I subscribe to is a high-quality Omega supplement.

"Really Chivonne, an Omega? That's your solution for depression?"

Not entirely. I also value the importance of a good exercise routine (get your body moving for at least thirty minutes a day), having a great support network - be it a counsellor, good friends or another outlet to share (think Al-Anon), as well as a healthy diet and lifestyle (alcohol, shitty food and pop aren't exactly mood boosters.) And of course, proper sleep (I can't get enough "Z's" in my life.) Make little changes in these areas and you'll definitely start to feel better.
