Paulina Paciorek is an art director and phtographer, her fashion editorial work has been featured in publications such as Mirror Mirror Magazine, Holloway Magazine, and Malvie Mag. In this conversation, Paulina and I discuss the importance of self-belief and confidence in one's craft. She shares her personal experiences with self-doubt, particularly during her application process to a school, and emphasises the need to trust in one's abilities and to project confidence, even when it feels forced. This chapter encapsulates the struggle many creatives face with self-doubt and the strategies to overcome it.
