Nice write up, Josh! I really resonated with the idea of feeling selfish/self-promoting and the idea of having to "earn the right to contribute." I struggle with both of these concepts every single day. Some may chalk it up as "imposter syndrome," which, sure, I'm guilty of; however, I remind myself that we're all on our own journey and that helps curb my thinking. While thousands, if not millions, of people have traveled a similar path before, our own unique journey is new to us. With this being said, we have all earned the right to contribute our own story. Glad to see you on here sharing your wisdom with all of us.
BTW - Have you read "Let My People Go Surfing" by Yvon Chouinard?
