Episode notes

How often do you hold yourself back because you’re waiting until you can do something perfectly? What have you learned or accomplished when you finally tried something new, even if it felt uncomfortable or you failed at first? In this episode, I share stories—from learning languages to playing piano live, to earning martial arts belts later in life—about how the best growth happens when we allow ourselves to be imperfect and take that first, shaky step beyond what’s familiar.

Listen to this new 8-minute episode for inspiration to step outside your comfort zone, embrace the discomfort of learning, and discover how failing forward can lead to your best results.
