283: Overcoming Fear of Failure | Part 1

THREE PERCENT CHANCE
About this episode

Today on the show we're talking about fear. Specifically, we're talking about a fear of failure. It is a common theme that I started to notice several years ago; I am super blessed that part of my job is to travel all around the world and speak at conferences. It's one of my favorite things that I get to do.

In the Q&A sessions at the end, inevitably women would always stand up and raise their hand and start talking about failure. What happens if I fail and what will I do then? What if it's all for nothing? No matter where I went in the world, I would encounter one person after another who was sort of drowning in this "what if" failure scenario.

So if that's you, if that is something that you struggle with or you know someone who does listen to the episode or send it along, make sure that you subscribe if you dig the content.
