My Background
If we’re being honest, confidence wasn’t something that came naturally to me. In fact, it’s probably the last word I would’ve EVER used to describe myself growing up! I was painfully shy, struggled to even speak up, and stepping outside my comfort zone felt impossible.
In college, my imposter syndrome hit me square in the face. Surrounded by talented designers and artists, I felt like I didn’t measure up. I worried that I would never amount to anything. Needless to say, the downward spiral of imposter syndrome really started to kick in.
Graduating only made things worse. I struggled to find a job and, if I’m completely honest, I was so intimidated and riddled with self-doubt that I often stopped myself from even applying. It was a tough time, and I slipped into one of my lowest points without even realizing it.
Then, I got a lucky break: a dear friend who believed in me passed my name along to a recruiter. Despite my fears, I flew across the country to interview, and—to my complete shock—I landed my DREAM job as a bedding designer!
I still remember crying in the Flatiron District when I got the call. I truly couldn’t believe my luck!
Even though I was afraid of the challenges ahead, I knew this was my chance to build a better life. I threw myself headfirst into my new life in NYC, determined to make it work.
New York or Nowhere!
My Corporate Career Journey
When I first entered the corporate world (wide-eyed and naive!), I thought hard work, a good attitude, and loyalty would get me where I wanted to go. Oh, how wrong I was!
The truth is, imposter syndrome had me COMPLETELY paralyzed. Instead of focusing on design, I buried myself in admin tasks and avoided the creative work I was actually hired to do.
❌ I felt like everyone around me was more talented, and I was just lucky to be there.
❌ I was terrified my ideas weren’t original enough and constantly second-guessed my work.
❌ I felt like a massive fraud and avoided any work that would make me feel exposed.
❌ I kept my opinions and ideas to myself, too afraid of being wrong.
❌ I worried that any success I achieved was just a fluke and that I didn’t really earn it.
I was so scared of failing at what I loved that I hid behind what felt safe.
But this came at a cost. I stayed stuck in this self-destructive cycle for almost FIVE whole years! I watched as others—who’d been at the company for far less time—were promoted above me. I felt angry, hurt, ashamed…
And then finally, MOTIVATED.
That was my wake-up call. I realized I needed to take RADICAL responsibility for my actions and career. I was stuck in #victimmode, waiting for things to happen instead of taking charge.
And that’s when everything changed.
✨ Instead of waiting to be noticed, I confronted my boss and department head about my career goals. I realized no one would know my ambitions if I never expressed them! I had to advocate for myself and let them know I was dedicated.
✨ I took on independent projects and managed several small accounts. This pushed me to step out of my comfort zone and become more comfortable taking ownership of my ideas.
✨ I began managing a small team, learning leadership and project management skills that helped to boost our success. I started stepping into hard challenges knowing that I could handle anything that came my way.
✨ And I faced my biggest fear: public speaking. Presenting to clients terrified me (hello, shaking voice!), but it also made my confidence soar and transformed my performance.
The results blew me away. In less than three years, I went from Junior to Senior Designer and DOUBLED my income. Looking back, I’m amazed at the transformation! It was so powerful that I knew I had to share what I’d learned to help others experience the same growth.
