Your Career Fear Cycle Ends here

Imposter syndrome is the Gray Hair growing in your 40s

I’ve been going gray since I was 30, my colorist gasping in the chair the week of my 30th birthday. It’s an relatively quick fix for me, the highlighting and gray coverage coloring I use to mask a silver fox look I’m not ready to embrace. I have accepted that it will pop up every few weeks and I make an appointment to get it back to my (natural) color.

What if imposter syndrome is that gray hair of your career, inevitable for 90% of us after 40? Are you willing to find a way to mask it even if you know it might get louder from time to time?
