Show Notes

Imposter Syndrome is a real thing, and when you straddle multiple cultures and you're not even sure who you're being an imposter of, it can be really confusing.  This week I welcome the brilliant and engaging Denise Soler Cox (https://projectenye.com/) to chat about her journey into embracing her identity, and sharing the discomfort of that with her fellow Enye'.  (Children of immigrant parents born in the US.)  Denise had a dream for a LONG time, and finally stepped into the Discomfort Zone and started to dance, and the rest is history!  In this fascinating and energizing episode we talk about

  • Her film making project, and how it was a long time coming.
  • The incredible response she’s been getting by helping Enye’ feel seen.
  • Her battle with Imposter Syndrome, and how she overcame.
  • The moment she decided to take that long-held dream and make it happen.
  • The dichotomy between conflicting idiologies
