7. Redefining Failure: Why "Failing" is the Best Thing That's Happened to You

We've all been through it: we fail, we cry, we figure out how to get back up again. It's tough, it sucks, we don't understand why it's a necessary part of our journey. Tough luck, it's 100% necessary to fail in order to grow. We don't HOPE to fail, but when we do we learn, -- so does that mean we ever really failed to begin with? In this episode I'm transparent, sassy, and emotional -- a winning combination-- but most of all, I want to ensure you walk away with reasons why you needed to go through the hard parts of life in order to grow. My personal experience in failure ranges from falling at a state track competition, to bombing college exams, to changing my career in the Navy, and finishing runner-up at MISS CALIFORNIA USA. I'll walk you through four reasons why failure is the best thing that's happened to you, because I've been through it too, and how to redefine what it means to "fail." Strap in, it's an emotional one. You'll walk away with not only a better understanding of my personal journey, but your own, and why you never really failed to begin with.  Like this episode?
