Well said! Failure truly is our best teacher and if we allow fear to hold us back, we will never pursue our dreams

That's very true Megan. More often than not, those fears are just perceived and not real ones, and once we start getting past that, we find that things are not what we imagine them to be.

Absolutely! I was terrified to launch my Substack (or any public presence at all). I put it off for almost a full year... Once I actually stepped into it, I discovered joy instead of fear. It really is just an illusion. Keep encouraging us to have courage!

Megan, I know exactly what you mean. For many years I have also hesitated and put things on hold out of fear! But once I put aside the fear and do something, I was immediately relieved. Even though not everything turned out well, but the experience gained is previous.

not sure if I commented this already previously, but I really like the term "fail forward". because of every experience you can take something and learn from it :)

It's common for people to fall, but always make sure to fall forward so we progress on the road, even if it's just one tiny step!

This is such an empowering reminder that failure is not a roadblock but a stepping stone to growth and success. I love the perspective that true failure is failing to try at all—so inspiring Moon.

I'm hoping to share a transformative perspective. When we see failure as a stepping stone rather than a setback, we empower ourselves to take risks and embrace growth. Failing to try is the only true defeat because it denies us the opportunity to learn, adapt, and achieve. Every stumble is a chance to build resilience and refine our path.
