Impostor Syndrome is a serious issue. I do therapy to help me with that.
I desperately need that. That compounded with my entire journey into this field (severe financial insecurity, a bunch of big speed bumps and trying to break in during the beginning of Covid) has taken such a collective toll on me.
It’s so hard to not attach my self worth with the subjective quality of my work. Probably be too type A and emotionally attached to it.

Totally get this
Define a metric for that. If it’s a feeling you just have, maybe it’s not what you want to do deep inside. If it’s a more defined metric might be easier to see where you need to improve and how. Is it getting new business, awards, being part of big projects...
So study screenwriting, read screenplays, dissect campaigns that you admire. Know that you won’t get better suddenly, you will improve little things here and there. Have patience and look back at previous work you did and see if you feel you improved from there.
Fake it till you make it
Is the work fun? Do you like it? Do you get excited about ideas? Chatting strategy w other strategists? If yes keep pushing, it’s imposter syndrome. If no, bounce. It’s not for you.
