Imposter syndrome and financial hardship…

I’m always a “how can I do more?” kind of person (hence why I’m in the position to buy), so when I lose out due to work situations things and for no fault of my own, I feel extremely frustrated and ultimately become super hard on myself.

This is such pivotal point of my life so I’m honestly hoping for a miracle!

I feel like bad things always happen right before a really good thing happens… Or at least that’s what I hope.

Have you ever been in a similar situation?
