Most of the time, we only get to hear about people’s successes.

The highlight reels, so to speak. We see the big moments. The impressive stuff.

While I’m all for celebrating wins and focusing on the positive, it’s vital that we don’t feel shame about our mistakes or missteps either.

Because let’s face it. We all stumble and fall. We all have errors in judgment.

We all do things from time to time that, in retrospect, make us cringe and say “What was I thinking?”

The truth is, in order to experience growth and progress in any area of life, you’ve got to take risks and put yourself out there. Consistently.

That means you’re going to stumble. You’ll find yourself embarrassed from time to time. And yes, you will have flops. Guaranteed.

The only real question to ask yourself is this.

Are you going to let an embarrassing mistake, flop or fumble take you down, or will you use this method to get right back in the game?

Today, you’ll hear a few of my more foolish moments from recent years and my go-to approach for bouncing back.

Never forget, we’re all human.

We’re messy, brilliant, emotional, love-and-ego filled creatures doing the very best we can in any given moment.

Now, I’d love to hear from you.

What’s the biggest faux pas you’ve made that you can now laugh at? Maybe it’s an event or it’s something you do on an ongoing basis.

Tell us all about it in the comments below.

Thanks for being generous and kind in the comments.

I’m particularly excited to hear your stories around this topic.

With all my love,
