When survival becomes an identity and success — your prison
Why do I feel like a fraud when I built everything myself?
Felt like a fraud despite real success. Chronic back pain. Emotionally unavailable. Success as armour.
What changed: physical symptoms gone. Vulnerability as a source of strength. Able to receive love. Anti-fragile — while staying soft.
“I built everything to prove I didn’t need anyone — what a trip. I feel so much relief now. I finally met the real me.”
