the matcha diaries

how i've failed myself


Listen Later

this was a difficult one … inspired by Elizabeth Day’s podcast “how to fail”, this is part 2 (part1: leo, part 2: cara) of our episode series were we asked ourselves the tough question “what are your biggest failures” ? A question that might seem simple to the eye… but it pushes someone to think about their past, their experiences, things they regret.. but most importantly the lessons that they have learnt, and how those failures are vital to their current successes.

 the two failures we discuss in part 2 are: 

  1. saying no to a lot of things growing up (because I cared a lot of what people thought of me) + ultimately missing out on a lot of experiences
  2. closing my self off in relationships + friendships
  3. a note from cara: recording this episode in itself taught me that it is okay to take space, and made me realise the importance of believing in your worth and the value you bring to those around you. If you ever don't feel like you're good enough, that your voice and story isn't worth sharing, then I want you to know that you're not alone BUT we have to start believing in the reasons we are put on this earth and all the greatness that comes with our presence. 

     p.s if you want to join our book club and come meet us in person... you can join us here!
