What If I'm Not Actually a Good Dominant - Episode 273

About this episode

The episode discusses imposter syndrome among Dominants and offers insights on managing self-doubt in BDSM dynamics.

Ever look at another Dominant and think, "They seem so confident. They always know what they're doing." Meanwhile, you're replaying scenes in your head, second-guessing decisions, and wondering if everyone is eventually going to figure out that you're making it up as you go. Those thoughts are a lot more common than most people realize. This week, we're talking about imposter syndrome in Dominance. Why it happens, why it doesn't mean you're failing, how it can affect your dynamic, and what you can do when self-doubt starts getting louder than reality. Some of the most thoughtful and responsible Dominants have asked themselves the exact same question: "What if I'm not actually a good Dominant?"
