The Instructor

The F-Word (no, not that one!)


Listen Later

Today, we’re diving deep into the “F Word” – and no, I’m not talking about your favorite swear word! We’re getting real about failure and how it’s not just a pitfall but a launchpad for growth. I’m joined by the wonderfully insightful Deucalion McGregor-Sims, who’s all about flipping the script on failure. We’ll tackle some juicy questions like, what does failure even mean? Spoiler alert: it’s all about learning from those epic faceplants! Plus, we’ll share our own tales of flops that turned into fantastic lessons. So grab your metaphorical helmets, folks, because we’re about to embrace the glorious messiness of life and learn how to bounce back better than ever!
