I love that reframe :))) I'm a beginner in my craft (stained glass) and it's intimidating sometimes, I find myself procrastinating because I know I'm likely going to mess up - but ignorance is something that can be fixed with mindful action!

I couldn't have said it better 🤗

Aramis!!! Girl…I love you!!! So many lightbulb moments happen for me when I watch your vlogs. The imposter/ignorance message is definitely for me. Now let me go and get some books and watch more videos and stuff about my craft. 🏃🏽‍♀️😂 Thanks, friend!🫶🏽

dude, i really was gifted with your content today. you are just slightly ahead of exactly where i am with myself as an artist and my art practice. i’ve been avoiding returning to my youtube channel, and you have massively inspired me there as well. i need to sit down with my camera soon 😭

[@aohamer]

Aaww, I'm honored to be that gift for you 💕Keep going in your art practice & KZbin. Both have been transformational for me in so many ways 🤗

Just sending virtual 🫰🏾 🫰🏾 of agreement with your epiphany, “You’re not an imposter, you’re just ignorant- in a technical definition kinda way”. I not too long ago had a similar epiphany- it felt soo ground breaking. I had realized the shame I felt from “not knowing” things as a child, simply because I was surrounded by people- adults and children who expected me to know things I hadn’t even learned, just bc I was naturally talented in other areas. I carried this shame into adulthood not even realizing to what extent it had impacted my sense of identity. I had begun to believe I simply wasn’t capable of achieving some of my biggest dreams, 😢despite having a foundational belief that I was. It was a sitch where literally, I was like did you realize you were letting your circumstances, with the “I don’t know how’s”, dictate your reality? And also, do you know you actually have the power to change this state of “not knowing” by leveraging other types of resources to learn what you need to? And if one fails, keep going don’t stop until you find what you’re looking for. Anyways, thanks for the reminder and for sharing . It was a word ❤.

I love that internal dialog of reflection you had with yourself. The best epiphany comes from that inner work. Glad the message resonated 🙏🏾
