Do you define yourself by your successes or your failures?

Many of us tie our self-worth to our accomplishments or setbacks, but what happens when success fades or failure strikes? The truth is, neither defines who we are. 

Today, I am flying solo to talk about why you should not be attached to success or failure. Through personal stories from my entrepreneurial journey, I will share the struggles of losing friendships during tough times, the painful lessons about ego and loyalty, and how I came to understand that our worth is not tied to what we achieve–or fail to achieve.

In this episode of The Greatness Machine, I will unpack the importance of detaching yourself from the outcomes of success and failure, how to protect your emotional well-being when dynamics shift, and why loyalty should always be seen as a gift, not an expectation. I will also explore how failure, when embraced with the right mindset, can be a powerful catalyst for exponential growth, and why success is simply a result of the right actions rather than a measure of your worth.
