This week on Content Inc., Joe shares a powerful reminder for every creator: feeling "behind" or "not good enough" is not a weakness. It is often a marker of growth. Fresh off the afterglow of CEX, Joe reflects on a conversation between Jay Acunzo and Ann Handley about imposter feelings and self-doubt. Even when we are recognized and quoted, we can still feel like we are falling short. To bring it home, Joe draws inspiration from the legendary golfer Bobby Jones, who once admitted his game felt like it was in "horrible shape" during a stretch when he was dominating every major tournament.

Feeling broken can be the best evidence you are leveling up. 👉 Jay Acunzo's LinkedIn post: [link] Bobby Jones Book Recommendation Key Takeaways: Everyone feels behind, even top performers.
