Fail Often and Loudly

In this episode I open up with a raw experience between myself and my daughter to illustrate what a fear of failure and protecting yourself from it can look like from the outside.  

I explore what we get out of the "keeping ourselves safe" mindset and how we use it to avoid things that make us uncomfortable.

I give some tips on the mindsets that create the super power of being super comfortable with falling flat on your face in a very public way and our role as parents in creating and sustaining a fear of failure in our kids.

Action Steps:
