Quotes

When I receive receive recognition for my acting, I feel incredibly uncomfortable. I tend to turn in on myself. I feel like an imposter.

There are still days when I wake up feeling like a fraud, not sure I should be where I am.

I still have a little imposter syndrome, it never goes away, that you're actually listening to me... I share that with you because we all have doubts in our abilities, about our power and what that power is.

Dr Jessamy teaches you the tools to break free from those self-sabotaging thought patterns that are holding you back from your own success.
