You Plan. Life Laughs. Coping with Failure

In this episode, Fiona explores the universal 'Fear of Failure'—how it stops us from taking risks and holds us back from reaching our full potential. We dive into the psychological roots of this fear, examining how personal experiences, upbringing, societal pressures, and even biology can shape our perception of failure. She discusses strategies to overcome the fear of failure, such as redefining success, reframing failure as a “Pivot Spark,” cultivating a growth mindset, and celebrating small wins along the way. I also emphasize the importance of self-compassion and building a supportive network of people who encourage growth and much more too.
