Imposter Syndrome is something that can affect anyone. I've been struggling with it the last couple years after losing our twins at 24 weeks and almost losing my wife to a deadly disease called HELLP Syndrome which can affect women during pregnancy. Since then I've been dealing with this growing feeling of imposter syndrome. So, I did what anyone would do when experiencing a life crisis. I started a podcast.
On the Imposter Syndrome Podcast, I talk to musicians, comedians, professors, and more about their internal struggles with imposter syndrome. As imposters, we tend to feel like we are the only ones experiencing it which can feel quite alienating. My goal is to surround myself with super talented and intelligent people to shine a light on this issue so that way anyone who is listening can know that they are not struggling with this alone. It can sometimes feel like we are trying to "fake it till you make it". However, the "faking it" process is usually part of the learning process. So, maybe we're not all faking it. Maybe we're just "Learning it till you make it".

Patrick feels furious about imposter syndrome.
Patrick and I discuss talking to other people about their grieving experiences to help with our own, the difficulty Patrick experienced coming up in his early days as an artist and a member of the BIPOC community, and his new documentary called, "Tell me a story about someone you miss". In this documentary, Patrick sits down in a park and talks to random strangers about their experience with loss and grief.
This episode is an extra special one to me. Patrick came to me as a student after his brother, Jordan de Belen, past away from suicide. Jordan was one of my favorite students. Jordan and I liked the same type of music. And as a voice teacher, Jordan's classes were a wonderful treat for me because we got to sing songs that him and I both loved. I love our classes together. He brought so much light and joy to my week each and every week. Hearing the news of his passing was devastating. I am so grateful for the time I got to spend with Jordan.
This episode is dedicated to Jordan de Belen
