Hi my name is Lacey! I have studied mental health counseling and psychology, though books cannot afford you the same kind of learning that you gain from successfully navigating life's struggles. On this channel I will share tips and information that could be helpful in developing better life skills and ways of coping, both from a counselor perspective and a human perspective. Because counselors are human too.

Imposter syndrome can be painful and debilitating. When it comes to our struggles knowledge is power. I encourage you to learn more about imposter syndrome if you are someone who struggles with it. In this video I will share 3 things I discovered that helped me to change the way I think about it. I have also listed some of the resources that I have found on imposter syndrome and where the information I provide was pulled from so that you can read more if you like.

“People are your mirrors” That’s interesting
hi lacey..You know what? I am a regular viewer of your UA-cam Channel. I have seen all your videos and your content qualities are very good. I learned lots of things from you. Your channel has great quality contents but still it is not delivering its right audiences due to SEO problems. You should focus on your SEO so that You can get a big fanbase
Thank you! I am so glad you found it helpful.
create content with such difficulty. But no video views at all. You must do SEO to get organic views subscribers. SEO that means Search Engine Optimization. it's a very powerful and effective work for UA-cam channels and UA-cam views if you every video
@@freelancersultana Thank you! I don’t know much about that but I try and research it some.
@@laceycsonnier you know .your thumbnail, video quality is good..If you are your video title description text section very well. within few days you can see your videos will show on the UA-cam Top level when your people will search in UA-cam Server. They can easily get your videos on the Top.If you any question feel free to inbox me
Thank you!
I see an amazing woman, wise and humble, who really cares for people and always asks the best from herself, without forgetting she’s human. A beautiful human, my friend. I love listening to you.
good advice
Interesting topic ! I like it .. Keep it up !
I can relate, although I'm still very young-16 years old-my whole life revolved around the mindset that I am less than, it was probably from the fact that my grandfather refuses to acknowledge me and constantly compares me to my cousin-who is just 6days younger than me-but at the end of the day, who is he to define me? I'm the only one who knows who I am (not yet [maybe]). My vacation is quite busy as I have to study vigorously for an exam, I came across this video and said to myseld "Why not try to encourage yourself a little?" Well I'm glad it worked. Thank you so much. I hope you keep telling people your story and helping them cope

Definitely helpful
Thank you for sharing and helping me understand.
Fantastic Video. What a unique approach - to view sobriety through the grief lens. I would definitely recommend this video to my clients. Lacy has such a calm, warm and succinct message delivered professionally. Thank you.
