Failure is an inescapable fact of life and business, but how we respond to it is what defines the experience. Whether failure happens in your art, your business, or your personal life, learning how to navigate setbacks with grit and grace is a major stepping stone on the way to success. 

This week's guest is Alison Hatch, who is sharing the difficult journey she experienced taking over the Photo Native conference. Navigating financial struggles, emotional hurdles, and the sting of failure, her story is a powerful reminder that these challenges are part of the growth process. Alison shares how taking big risks—despite the fear of failure—allowed her to grow both personally and professionally.

Failure is a natural part of business and personal growth. I hope Alison's story will encourage you to keep moving forward, take risks, and embrace the inevitability of failure as an essential part of success.
