- In this compelling solo episode, I tackles the intricate feelings of **imposter syndrome** that many musicians face. I explore what it means to seek validation in an art form that lacks traditional metrics of success. This conversation invites listeners to consider the worth of their creative output and whether the world truly needs more music. By examining my own journey and the realities of being an artist, I hope to inspire listeners to confront their doubts and redefine their purpose.
