Episode Synopsis

What if falling down isn’t a sign you’re failing—but proof you’re learning? In this episode, we revisit a simple moment in a church hallway: a three-year-old running full speed, taking a hard fall, and popping back up without hesitation. No shame. No overthinking. No worrying about who saw. Somewhere between childhood and adulthood, we lose that fearlessness. We stop allowing ourselves to learn. We expect perfection on the first try. We assume everyone is watching, judging, whispering. But the truth? Most of us are still new at something. Still figuring it out. Still learning how to run. Listen in as we explore why falling is essential, why judgment is mostly imagined, and why courage often looks like standing up—scraped, bruised, and still willing to try again.💡 What You’ll Learn: • Why adults fear failure more than kids—and how to unlearn it • How perfectionism shrinks your life and limits your growth • The truth about how little people actually judge you • Why falling is a sign of boldness, not incompetence • How to rebuild the courage to try, fail, and try again🛠️ Action Step: Identify one area of your life where you’re holding back because you’re afraid to “fall.” Take one step—small or big—toward it this week. Treat yourself like the three-year-old learning to run: with grace, curiosity, and zero embarrassment.📌 Perfect For: • Anyone struggling with perfectionism or self-judgment • Creators, leaders, and learners trying something new • People navigating new seasons, skills, or challenges • Anyone who needs encouragement to live boldly instead of safely
