So encouraging Cara Peterson! I was in a similar position of getting laid off, landing a new job and then my manager left and it was HARD. And yes imposter syndrome is so real! Now I report directly to the CMO, which is a great opportunity but I also realize I have to change the way I communicate to someone at a higher level. I've put tons of pressure on myself to always have the answers. But I'm learning that she cares more that I'm thoughtful, engaged and always improving rather than perfect. She's also someone who values people who GSD, so I just have to keep moving!
TLDR; +1 to everything you said and congrats! 🎉
