In this episode of Lattes & Art, host James William Moore sits down with artist, writer, and certified life coach Shannon Borg for a powerful conversation about imposter syndrome, artistic identity, and the transformative act of reinventing yourself at any age. Drawing from her own journey—returning to art school at 50, navigating vulnerability, and embracing the “essence, evolution, and edge” of the creative voice—Shannon unpacks why artists struggle with self-doubt and how we can shift our relationship with time, confidence, and our inner critic.
Together, James and Shannon explore the mental habits that hold creatives back, the cultural forces that shape imposter syndrome, and the practical tools artists can use to step into their full creative power. Shannon also shares insights from her free class and deep-dive course on imposter syndrome, offering a roadmap for anyone ready to move past fear and into authentic expression.
