Thank you for this one, Mary! As I step out of my comfort zone and approach this new business coaching/organizational health coaching career, I am consistently confronted with an imposter syndrome/fear-based mentality and the myriad confirmations I have received, encouraging me to move forward in my truth. It is a conflict that I am winning, but it is not easy. This post is a potent reminder and encouragement for me.

A quote from Marcus that I am holding closely is, “You have power over your mind — not outside events. Realize this, and you will find strength.”

— Marcus Aurelius, Meditations

From stoics to pop stars- we’ve got encouragement to keep going! Such a great reminder from Marcus Aurelius— we can only control what we can control. Another great quote I read this week that *really* struck me from Ana Calin here on substack— “if you’re feeling imposter syndrome, good. It means you’re doing something that actually matters.” 🔥 🔥 You’re doing work that matters, Matt! Keep going, keep going, keep going!
