The Art of Professional Discomfort: Turning Insecurity into Strength
Have you ever felt like an impostor in your professional life? You're not alone. When Esquire magazine unexpectedly called me in 2005, I was convinced they'd discover my inadequacy within a month. Despite being editor-in-chief at Southwest Airlines' in-flight magazine, I cataloged all my supposed shortcomings: growing up on the "wrong side" of Dallas, attending a tiny evangelical school, graduating from University of North Texas instead of somewhere prestigious. This "impostor phenomenon," first identified by psychologists in 1978, affects even the most accomplished individuals - Meryl Streep, Tina Fey, and Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor have all admitted to feeling like frauds. What I discovered through my journey is that professional discomfort isn't something to overcome - it's a powerful force that can become your greatest strength when channeled correctly. Standing nervously at Columbus Circle before my Esquire interview, I realized I'd forgotten a suit jacket - a fashion disaster for a style magazine interview. In the elevator to the thirteenth floor, facing Ewan McGregor's judgmental stare from a framed magazine cover, my palms were sweating profusely. The gleaming hallways seemed to mock my small-town background. But something unexpected happened during those interviews. The editors were normal, warm, interested - not elitist or dismissive. They evaluated my personality through casual conversation rather than intense questioning. One editor shared stories about his own humble beginnings in journalism. Another admitted to being intimidated when he first started at Esquire. I left thinking substance mattered more than my missing jacket or pedigree.
