This is an Elizabeth Day and Sony Music Entertainment original podcast.
Thank you so much for listening.
This episode of How to Fail is brought to you by Dove Whole Body Deodorant.
Hello and welcome to How to Fail with me, Elizabeth Day.
This is the podcast where we look beneath the bonnet of success and we see the engine of failure and how it motivates us to do ever greater things.

In 1998, I took a photograph of Natalie Imbruglia to her hairdresser and told him I wanted to cut just like hers.
It was perhaps a mark of her cultural impact that I know I was one of many thousands of young women doing exactly the same thing.
A year previously, Imbruglia had released one of the seminal singles of the decade, Torn.
It sold more than four million physical copies worldwide.
In her homeland of Australia, it became the most played song on the radio, being played an average of 75 times a day over the two decades following its release.
Imbruglia had started out as an actor, quitting school in a small New South Wales beach town at the age of 16 to pursue her dreams.
She landed a part as builder's labourer Beth Brennan in Neighbours in 1985 and stayed on the hugely popular soap for two years before moving to London.
Here she signed her first record deal.
Her debut album, Left of the Middle, went multi-platinum.
Five further albums followed, but it wasn't always easy.
In 2009, she took a six-year break from music to concentrate on acting, appearing on stage and in film, and also as a judge on the Australian X Factor.
Since then, she has released further music, become a mother to a son, Max, and won the Masked Singer.
Now she returns with her seventh studio album, Algorithm, which, Imbruglia says, was by far the most fun I've ever had making a record.
And yet, she admits, it also happened to coincide with the most challenging time I've had with my mental health.
