My Property Professor taught a class called ‘Faking It.’ The general principles always seemed to convey that people are afraid of being their authentic selves and often stray from their dreams due to fear of failure. I have always struggled with imposter syndrome. And for the longest time it was something I tried to hide. When I finally told someone that insecurity, I felt free. I discovered that so many people struggle with similar feelings. I wanted to set us all free with that song and bring light to that deep dark secret. It is okay to feel like an imposter sometimes – we all do,” Altman said in a statement.
