In this episode of 5 Minutes with Andy, Virtual, Inc. CEO Andy Freed shares one of his most personal leadership lessons yet — how the way we talk about failure, especially to ourselves, shapes the kind of leader we become.

Andy discusses:

• Why the stories we tell ourselves about failure matter more than the failures themselves.
• How reframing failure is essential to growing, communicating, and leading with impact.
• What his own “loser resumé” reveals about perspective, resilience, and long-term success.
