Episode 23: You're NOT a Failure
Oct 31, 2022
Have you ever viewed yourself as a failure? We all do. You’re not alone.
So why do we dwell on it as such a negative thing? And how can we change from viewing something as a failure to making it our new superpower? I’m going out on a limb, and I am going to challenge conventional thinking around failure. My goal is that by the end of this episode, you can start to think of failure like a Grateful Warrior. This way is to view failure as YOUR path to success, and I’m going to share 5 ways to help you get started.
How do we get there? Well, let me show you.
