Failure is where you learn.</p><p>In the spirit of celebrating failure, Natalie talks about moving overseas, not listening to her intuition, attempting 75 hard, and playing it safe in life.</p><p>TIMESTAMPS</p><p>00.00: how social media lacks authenticity & honesty </p><p>00.40: why we should start celebrating failure </p><p>00.54: the japanese concept of kintsugi</p><p>01.11: how social media makes us fearful of failing publicly</p><p>01.51: attempting 75 hard</p><p>06.59: one of the most dangerous approaches to life: playing it safe</p><p>09.30: the “career” is one of the most stifling concepts created by humans</p><p>11.33: being addicted to overstimulation (screens & nicotine)</p><p>15.05: not listening to my intuition when i moved from australia to europe</p><p>20.35: being a cuc* for goggins-esque, mind over matter attitudes lol</p><p></p><p>Cover art: “Not to be reproduced” by Rene Magritte (1937)</p><p>Recommended reading: “The body keeps the score” by Dr Bessel van der Kolk & “Make something wonderful” by Steve Jobs.</p><p></p><p>Futurist Frequency is a tech & wellbeing podcast that helps you disconnect from technology to reconnect with yourself.
