153 | Mindset Shift Series #4: Normalizing Imposter Syndrome in Interior Design

Do you ever feel like you’re not good enough to be a designer? Have you ever thought, “What if my clients discover that I’m not as skilled as they believe I am?”


In this final episode of the Mindset Shift Series, I discuss the real struggles that new designers face, such as feelings of insecurity and imposter syndrome.


These feelings are completely normal, and even experienced designers go through them.


So, I share simple yet powerful strategies to uplift you when you're feeling down, help shift your mindset, and boost your confidence. Plus, I also share real stories from my own journey.


If you’ve ever felt like you don’t know enough, don’t have a signature style, or wonder why anyone would pay you for your design work, this episode will help you feel seen and supported.


This is also your reminder that you can do hard things, and you don’t have to do them alone. 🎧 Listen now and share it with a designer friend who could use a little encouragement, too!


Why you’ve got to check out today’s episode:

📌 Learn how to reframe negative thoughts so you can feel more confident

📌 Leverage community and connection to help you beat burnout and self-doubt

📌 Start seeing your progress even when it doesn’t feel like a straight line
