FAR OUT #91 ~ Let’s Talk About Failure

Episode Description

Collectively our failures are often much more interesting and useful to explore than our successes, yet we rarely talk about them.

On this episode, we dive into some of the devastating failures we've experienced, what they taught us and how they look now from the benefit of hindsight. We explore what it means to fail and why the word failure can often be a limiting and narrow way to label our experience.

Let's get into it!

Listen and explore:

• The difference between failing and being a failure

• Julie-Roxane’s issue with the word failure

• Three ways Alasdair failed epically, all in one year

• Julie-Roxane calls off an engagement

• Two levels to look at failure from

• Failure’s relationship to the ego

• How our current circumstances can be directly traced back to specific failures
