In this episode, Shanti confesses that she is failing in an area of her life. We use the book "Failing Forward" by John Maxwell as a guide for the conversation, and together we reflect on our relationships with failure. We attempt to embrace failure as an opportunity for growth and redefine what success and failure mean to each of us. We hope this episode resonates with anyone feeling like giving up. Keep going!
