Episode 6- The F Word !
F for Failure.
Not a word to be used lightly. We all are unsuccesful at some things at some point - does that make it or us a failure.
I hope by rethinking and reframing this word and owning our less successful things in life we can learn, grow and move onto bigger and better.
Also owning a failure means we can share and feel just a bit better about ourselves.
