I generally feel confident in my work, but lately when I make mistake, I just overthink everything afterwards. I start worrying about people judging me or not wanting to work with me on my own team and client. Some people say “imposter” syndrome might be affecting me. I wish I could just get over something and move on.

Hey PwC, what you're experiencing is being human. Chances are a lot of what you feel is in your head (and heart). Even if there are people judging you, so what? There are over 7 billion humans. A few ants judging you ain't shiet in the grand scheme of things.

Learn from your mistakes and make adjustments. And imposter syndrome? That mofo is here to stay. Get comfortable with him. If he acts up too much, punch him in the stomach and check his azz. You feel what you feel but you CAN absolutely PRACTICE how you REACT to those thoughts. Confidence isn't a permanent state for anyone. It's a mindset you practice every day in every thing. You got this, PwC, let's fukin gooo, champ!

Happy wife happy life is a really toxic saying. I’m just shocked how this has become the standard saying for men in relationships. I have friends of mine saying this all the time, and I have just thought it’s so cringe and always want to say my thoughts on it but always decide to hold back. However, imagine the saying reversed - happy husband happy life - that would lead to all kinds of uproar. To me happy wife happy life means I need to sacrifice my wants and needs to make my wife happy.
