Embracing Life’s Setbacks As Setups For Success: The Dance of Progress and Resilience

Self-Creation Coach Leanne Letica shares insights from her lifelong passion for dance to illustrate how backward steps in life aren’t failures but essential parts of our personal choreography.

Drawing parallels between dance missteps and life setbacks, Leanne emphasizes the importance of the energy we bring to these moments. She explores both intentional backward steps, like pausing for reflection, and the unplanned missteps.

Leanne provides reflective questions to help listeners reframe their outlook on setbacks, strengthen their mental and emotional resilience, and continue their life’s dance with grace, strength, and power.

This episode inspires women to embrace every step in their journey, reinforcing the idea that every movement, forward or backward, contributes to their unique dance of life.
