You're a terrific writer - accomplished, hardworking and going places. But there's all this 'stuff' in the way. Some of that is info. Some of that is emotional challenges (fear, imposter syndrome, anxiety). How do you move through it all? With the stuff they DON'T TELL YOU in grad school or writing classes. In Hollywood, there's the OUTER game and the INNER game - and your job is to master both. That's the way to get ahead and live to tell the tale.
