How does failure fit into the overall equation of mental health? On week twelve of the podcast, we are diving into societal expectations, the false dichotomy of failure and success, and making your own rules. As always, we get rowdy on the Rapid Fire segment before moving onto our weekly rundown of the eight dimensions of wellness. Tune in to learn more about our latest failures and how we constantly renegotiate the concept of success!
