I know what you’re thinking.

Just 3?!? She must’ve had an easy time then.

BIG disclaimer: This is by NO means an exhaustive list of the mistakes Lisa has made in her twenties (there are plenty more, but we’ll need much longer episodes for that :)

Making mistakes is part of the human experience. It’s such a huge part of life—no wonder there are so many famous quotes about it.

• “The most valuable thing you can make is a mistake—you can’t learn anything from being perfect.” -Adam Osborne
• “We must not regret mistakes. We must learn from them.” -Ramon Bautista
