In this deeply personal episode, I share my journey from being "swallowed whole" by my failures as a young mother to understanding that failure is actually a beautiful sign of expansion, growth, and devotion. More importantly, I explore how our own relationship with failure directly shapes the relationship our children will have with it for the rest of their lives.This isn't about becoming perfect. It's about becoming authentic. It's about giving ourselves—and our children—permission to be beautifully, imperfectly, courageously human.If you've ever felt crushed by your own failures or worried about how your struggles affect your children, this episode is for you.Resources Mentioned:The Art of Accomplishment with Joe Hudson - artofaccomplishment.comPhil Stutz's "The Tools" - Book and Netflix documentary "Stutz"Andrew Huberman's work on neuroplasticity and learningChanging Your Relationship with FailureI want to give you some concrete practices you can start using today:1.
