What does it actually feel like to run a growing online community — and constantly wonder if you’re even qualified to lead it?

In this episode of Ctrl + Alt + Sass, host Sass gets candid about imposter syndrome, burnout, and the emotional highs and lows of managing a fast-growing RedM roleplay server.

As the sole owner of The Tackroom — a Red Dead Online RP server built around horses, heart, and high expectations — Sass shares honest stories from behind the screen: late-night bug fixes, tough moderation calls, near-burnout breakdowns, and the beautiful, unexpected moments that keep it all going.

We talk about:

• What imposter syndrome actually feels like in leadership
• The mental load of “being the one in charge”
• Moments that nearly made us quit — and what helped us stay
• Staying grounded while holding digital space for others
• Support systems (and memes) that make it all survivable

Whether you’re running a game server, building a brand, or just managing your own creative chaos — this one’s for you.
