You’re Not Failing Enough… Why Rejection and Mistakes Are Your Greatest Teachers

In this episode of The Bold Moves Podcast, we dive deep into the truth that failure is part of the process. Without failure, there is no growth or success.
We open up about our own experiences that didn’t go to plan and how those “failures” ended up being the biggest lessons in disguise and needed for us to fail forwards and continue to grow and evolve as a person.
We cover everything from sports injuries, competing, business and life and how failing is a crucial part in all of these areas. We explore the connection between mindset, resilience and personal growth. Touching on the difference between failure and setbacks and the differences between the two and how shifting your perspective can completely change how you approach this moments in life, which really are just moments in a lifetime.
This episode is all about normalising failure, embracing setbacks as lessons and recognising that the process and the road to success isn’t linear it’s built on the messy, imperfect moments that push you to grow.
Key takeaways:

• Failure isn’t the opposite of success, it’s a key part of it
• Every setback is a stepping stone toward growth
• You can’t build resilience or confidence without getting uncomfortable
• Reflection is where the real learning happens
• Those who avoid failure also avoid progress
• Normalise failing, it’s a sign you’re evolving
• Celebrate progress, not just the end result
