Overcoming Imposter Syndrome

I'm teaching my Book Passage class in two hours. I've been nervous for months about it, if I am to be honest, but why? I know my shit. I think the thing that worries me is the length of the class -- how am I going to make the most of it? But my schedule is mapped out and my handouts are in order and pretty soon it will be Go Time.

Stoked!

GOOD STUFF?

I THINK. ABOUT MY MOM AND HIM AND SIMILARITIES.

OH SHIT.

YEAH.

FUCK THAT GUY.

IT'S MORE LIKE FUCK MY MOM.

Freedom in commitment

I like my new therapist. Maybe it's because he's a dude. Maybe it's because he's funny and real and gets my sense of humor. Maybe because I can do it from the comfort of my recliner on FaceTime. In any event, he said something that both made sense and made no sense at all: freedom in commitment. 

What does that mean? I always saw commitment as being locked down, tied to something. How can you have both?
