To know your spirit is to embark on a journey within, a path where your deepest fears, hopes, and strengths are laid bare. It’s an awakening, an unspoken recognition that the real essence of our being lies not in the roles we play or the things we achieve but in the quiet strength of our spirit.

The Pressure of Perfection: Are South Asian Parents to Blame?
Imposter syndrome is a common experience that many of us hesitate to acknowledge. It stems from our unique life choices, societal conditioning, and the perceptions we hold, which shape our reality. This feeling of inadequacy often leads individuals to attribute their successes to external factors like luck or chance, rather than their own abilities. In South Asian households, particularly for women, there is a cultural expectation to downplay one's achievements and to adopt a humble demeanor, influenced by patriarchal norms. This article explores how parental influence contributes to the development of imposter syndrome in the South Asian context, highlighting the societal pressures that encourage women to minimize their accomplishments.
