I wish my 7 year old nephew would understand your genuine words of wisdom.

He struggles a lot with failure to the point he transforms from a sweet boy to an enraged tempest destroying everything in his path.

I really enjoy reading your articles. Your words have a "fair dinkum" quality to them that clearly expresses your lived experiences and learnings, and cuts out the BS.

Keep it up, Anna!

Failure is a hard one isn't it, we only really learn that the consequences of failure are rarely (if ever) as bad as we think, once we've failed. Hopefully as your nephew gets a little older he learns that it builds character and resilience. I'm sure he will ☺️

And thank you for that encouragement. It means a lot and reminds me that the hours slaving over the keyboard each week are worth it!

Oh no 😂 I feel for you! Although as long as the link was damning I'm sure you're all good 🤞🏽

Thanks Anthony! These were some of the failures I find easy to share, there are plenty more I’m drumming up the courage for! Appreciate your feedback 🩷
