In this personal vlog, the speaker recounts a period of severe depression that escalated into back‑to‑back asthma attacks, ultimately causing her to lose her voice for a month. While attending church, a particular song and its lyrics moved her to tears, prompting a spiritual breakthrough in which she recognized that speaking is a God‑given gift she had been neglecting due to imposter syndrome. She attributes the syndrome to family members repeatedly telling her she talks too much, which has made her doubt her own voice. The speaker then invites viewers who also feel silenced by imposter syndrome to share their stories, emphasizing that she now earns a living by speaking and encouraging others to embrace their own speaking gifts.

Chapters

Another song, this one right here. I remember when I was dealing with depression and I was very, very sad. It had gotten so bad that I had back-to-back asthma attacks. I lost my voice. I couldn't speak for an entire month. I remember I went to church and I heard this song, and these lyrics right here really got me. Come on, my soul, oh, don't you get shy on me. Lift up your song. 'Cause you've got a lion inside of those lungs. Get up and praise the Lord. Oh, I literally could not stop crying because if anyone knows, asthma attacks your lungs and that's something that I was dealing with. I was like, God, what is happening? And he began to show me that I was taking advantage of one of the gifts he'd given me is speaking. But it was because of imposter syndrome, my family telling me, stop talking. If you are someone and you know that speaking is your gift, please drop a comment below 'cause I know how it is. You have imposter syndrome and it has come from family telling you you talk too much. Remember, I get paid good money to talk, okay? So let's continue this journey together.
