🎙 EPISODE 9 – What If “Imposter Syndrome” Isn’t the Problem…Identity Is?Visiting with Jon Howski.

Most writers don’t stall because they’re untalented. They stall because their identity turns every page into a verdict.

In this episode, Jaime Buckley sits down with Jon Howski (storyteller and software developer) to unpack what “imposter syndrome” is really made of: fear, comfort zones, old damage, and the pressure to earn the right to create.

What we cover:

• Why “I feel like a fraud” is usually fear in a costume

• “Writer” vs “Storyteller” (and why that shift matters)

• How real wins build real confidence (without fake hype)

• Multi-potentialites, focus, and the comfort-zone trap

A practical runway for building readers before going full-time
