  • 41. "Kindness and hard work doesn't have a race, an age, or gender." -Talia McKinney, Million Dollar Listing

    This week on Failing Awesomely, I had the opportunity to chat with Talia McKinney, who you may know from the Bravo show, Million Dollar Listing New York. Talia is a real estate agent on the Ryan Serhant team, host of the youtube show "3 In A Million", Ted X speaker, and Achilles International volunteer. We chat about her journey to moving and working in NYC and how she started her real estate career on the Serhant team just TWO years into her career. Her kindness and authenticity is a beautiful and rare thing, especially in a field as competitive as real estate, but Talia has gained so much success by being her true self and caring for her clients on a deep, personal level. Even though she has a very demanding schedule, she makes times to give back every week through her volunteer work. I learned SO much from Talia and her formula for success = kindness + hard work + genuine authenticity.

  • 40. S.O.S. Living Life Directed by God with Michelle and Drew Williams

    Hi, sweet friends! Heads up, I'm getting over a cold, so my voice sounds super sultry and amazing... Just kidding. It just sounds like I'm sick.

    In this week's episode, I talked to Michelle Williams, author of S.O.S. Living Life Directed by God, and her husband, Drew. We had a great conversation about how Jesus rescues us in our lowest moments. We also discussed the details of her devotional, what inspired her to write it, and what the process was like to write and get a book published.
    As always, I hope you're well, friends. Be well, be awesome!

  • 39. 4 Questions to Ask Yourself About Your Relationship with Alcohol w/ Jennifer Pericolosi
    Hi, sweet friends! Sorry I've been MIA. I recovered from major reconstructive surgery to take my belly flab and make boobs out of it!!! Super happy with the procedure and I'm healing great.
    In this week's episode, we talk to Jennifer Pericolosi about her own personal story that lead her to become sober just over 4 years ago. We discuss together the signs you should look for and the questions to ask yourself about your own relationship with alcohol. Have you ever thought, "Am I drinking too much?" Are you sick of waking up feeling depleted and foggy and like crap after a night of drinking? This episode is definitely a good one to listen to.
    As always, I hope you're well, friends. Be well, be awesome!

  • 38. Ready To Dream, Again with Rachel Bradshaw

    Welcome to the Failing Awesomely podcast! I’m your Host, Lindsey Garcia, and I’m so excited to share my interview with one of my best friends, Rachel Bradshaw. Rachel is an incredible singer and one of my favorite songwriters. She is the daughter of the one and only, Terry Bradshaw, and star of the new hit reality show, The Bradshaw Bunch, on E! On today’s episode, we talk about how we met on another reality show over 14 years ago when we both lived in Nashville. Rachel shares her story of huge success in the music industry and being on top of the world, only to go through one of the greatest losses any of us could ever experience. She talks about leaving Nashville and music all together to come home to Texas and start over. The beauty in all of this is that she found healing with her family and new purpose as she found her way back to making music, this time, completely her way and on her terms.

  • 37. "I'm Martha if she was a squirrel" // Starting Your Day Like Mary

    In this week's episode of Failing Awesomely, Lindsey Garcia shares how her experience with anxiety and a possible panic attack landed her in the hospital this Good Friday and how that's led her to really ask Jesus, "Where is the balance?" The answer is simple, but easier said than done. 

    Join Lindsey in trying to start her days like Mary, instead of being consumed about her long list of things to do and the worries and fears of the future, like Martha. 

    Be well, be awesome!

  • 36. Can You Blend God and Science? // Aligning Our Spirit, Soul, and Flesh with Psychologist Dr. Tiffany Tajiri

    Welcome to the Failing Awesomely podcast! I'm your host, Lindsey Garcia, and I have the privilege of introducing you to our guest, Dr. Tiffany Tajiri. As a psychologist and US Air Force Veteran from El Paso, TX, Dr. Tiffany shares with us how she blends God and science into a therapeutic practice she developed called Rhythm Restoration. This helps her clients align their flesh, soul, and spirit so they can live life to the fullest in relationship with the Lord with less anxiety and more peace and healing. During the interview, we did our own Rhythm Restoration practice and it blew my mind, y'all!

    She is also the author of the book, "Peace After Combat: Healing the Spiritual and Psychological Wounds of War" which comes out this summer. Pre-order the book on Amazon or Barnes and Noble below. Make sure to subscribe to her youtube channel and follow her on instagram!

  • 35. Trauma, Guilt, and Shame: My Sexual Assault Story

    Thank you for tuning in to the Failing Awesomely Podcast. I'm Lindsey Garcia and I'm so grateful you're taking time out of your busy day to listen to my show. This is an episode for the books. It was super difficult for me to be obedient to God in sharing this story, but He's been telling me for weeks that it is time. I hope you learn something. I hope this encourages you to have tough talks with your sons and daughters about consent and what healthy sexual relationships look like. If this has happened to you too, I hope you feel heard and validated. 

    Be well. Be awesome!

    We'd love to hear from you!

  • 34. Learning To Be Brave and Cope with Anxiety

    Welcome to the Failing Awesomely podcast! In this week's episode, Lindsey shares her recent struggle with anxiety and explains why she couldn't release a new episode last week. From Lindsey: "I hope is that this episode resonates with those of you who struggle with anxiety as well. I hope you no longer feel alone and I pray that my story can remind you to take time to do a mental "self check-in" every once in awhile and take care of YOU to better serve the people and loved ones around you." 

    If you enjoyed this episode, please consider giving it a 5* review on apple podcasts and sharing the episode with your friends and family. That would be such a blessing and we would truly appreciate it. 

    Be well. Be awesome!

  • 32. We Are Being Targeted: Mommy Wine Culture 2 with Amanda "Mini" Canter

    Visit DRINKNOPE.com and enter code FAILINGAWESOMELY for 15% off your first order of NOPE beverages now through March 8th 2021. 

    Thank you so much for joining us for another episode about the "Mommy Wine"/Alcohol Culture we live in. Mini and I have had many conversations in recent months about how we are targeted as women not only by wine and spirits companies, but by a society that believes alcohol to be an acceptable, regular part of our daily lives, not just in moderation, but in excess. For some of us, not all, but some of us, that can easily lead to addiction. Our goal is to educate people and change the narrative so that sobriety is no longer seen as a social death sentence and also so that it's not viewed as just a group of alcoholics. Sobriety is simply a healthy lifestyle, sans alcohol.

    We discuss our research connecting women and alcohol through our favorite quotes from the books, "Quit Like A Woman" by Holly Whitaker and "Drink" by Ann Dowsett Johnston. 


    We also share our FAVORITE new alternative cocktail (mocktail) companies:

About Failing Awesomely

From the publisher's feed

I'm Lindsey Garcia and I have a desire to share my stories of failure, yes, failure- in business, relationships, and while chasing big, BIG dreams. To say I've taken a lot of risks in my life would be an understatement. Here's the thing, in every failed attempt, there are multiple lessons to be learned. And coming out on top is not only possible, but I can almost guarantee it.
