Michelle Gomez Vroom Veer Stories

Dream come true moment; published her first book on Amazon--Own your Brilliance:  Overcome Impostor Syndrome for Career Success (see link below for a free download link)
Cut her teeth in the transportation and logistics industry; which turns out to be male-dominated; this is industry is easy to get in and hard to get out; much like the mafia
Logistics was the industry that let her use the skills that made her weird; attributes like obsessive perfectionist working hard to get things from point A to point B on-time and under budget.
After working in Logistics for about 12 years she had grown up; got married; had two kids; realized that her identity most 80 percent 20 percent family and 0 percent for Michelle
Realized she was not happy; she was exhausted; weight loss/gain; hair loss high anxiety--BURNOUT!
Job environment became toxic; work was no longer fullfulling her needs and desires but was still 80% of her identity; started to question who am I?  What am I doing?
Impostor Syndrome is difficulty in internalizing success; on the outside and on paper your life/career look amazing; inside your head you are constantly afraid of being found out to be a fraud; phony; schlub, impostor
The fear of being found out drives you to win one more day; you need other people to tell you that you are ok; but you never really believe them
Michelle's father was abusive; an addict and a womanizer; her brother was also an addict and went to prison; Michelle was the first-born child and took on a lot of responsibility to succeed at everything to support her mother
Michelle tried to be perfect and fix her family; later she realized that it was not her burden to carry; everyone has their own stuff
Applied for graduate school and got accepted; but needed to quit her job to do; pray for an opportunity that would allow her to slow down; that showed up as a great work from home job with no direct reports--perfect!
Developed her good morning routine; reading; writing; praying, mediation
