How can failure lead to success?
I noticed that as soon as somebody is feeling like there's a failure, they look to point fingers to blame. And I think that's really toxic. I think it's a way to avoid feeling something. I fail all the time. People who are successful just keep going. With the learning disability label, I thought something was wrong with me. But now we can see that actually that disability is an ability. You're going to have other abilities developed. I have ADHD. I have dyslexia and I run a successful company doing what I love, making an impact in the world. And so I just want to remind people, any of those labels, we can unlearn and we can take our power back from them and use them as a way to share our gifts that's only aligned with how we are designed. I left everything I knew.
I ended up leaving this relationship. I left San Diego. I left the graduate program. I followed my intuition. I worked with the fears that came up and I wanted to have a story about why, because it was so hard to leave. And I just remember being in my Honda Prelude with my life packed in my car. And there was a part of me that was confused and there was a deeper part of me that knew I had to honor this. And that was one of the most courageous things that I'd done. And it opened me to the life that I have now, which is beyond my wildest dreams. Welcome back to the Healing and Human Potential podcast, where today's episode is a little different because I'm not the one asking questions. My husband's actually interviewing me. And I have to admit, this one feels extra vulnerable.
I've spent years coaching and supporting others through their challenges. But in this episode, I'm pulling back the curtains of my own struggles and And so I'll be sharing moments that didn't go as planned, the failures, the doubts, the lessons that I've learned along the way. And I know we all face setbacks and while they can be tough, they also have the power to shape us. And so my intention in sharing this conversation is to help you learn about the things that I've navigated through the tough times so that they support you on your journey. I hope it serves you.
We're here with Alyssa Noriega on her podcast. I have the privilege today of interviewing this incredible human being. I am deeply grateful for all the ways you've touched my life. And I'm excited to get to put you in that chair for a little bit.
Thanks for holding space to share support.
So how does it feel to be on that side?
Usually over here. I feel nervous. I feel nervous because I'm usually more prepared. You fly by the seat of your pants. I'm much more like, okay, make this time valuable for others. I mean, I really got into online in 2017. I did 50 webinars in one year. So I'm very much trained of like making every moment count. And I know podcasting is a very different experience. And so I'm just learning to share myself more naturally and unscripted. But my intention is to share authentically some of the lessons I've learned in service to other people for sure.
Beautiful.
Yeah.
Well, I do find myself continuously amazed at how you navigate life. Thank you. And I have a front row seat to that. And I'm grateful that we get to share more of that.
Yeah.
On that note, how do you find yourself navigating things that come up for you, like failure or things of that nature?
I fail all the time. And I think that people who are successful just keep going. So I think that I have a very much a learning orientation to life. And I noticed that as soon as somebody is feeling like there's a failure, they look to point fingers to blame. And I think that that's really toxic. I think it's a way to avoid feeling something. I try my best not to do that so that I can look at everything from a learning, take personal responsibility. This doesn't always naturally happen, but I definitely have that orientation developed. And I would say I've invested in so many different contractors or people to work with, specifically Facebook ads people. who have, I would say, not really necessarily had the best decisions around how to manage that budget, like some pretty large budgets, but I never went into blame. I wouldn't necessarily hire them again. I might talk about, you know, what was our agreements, what was mine, but if I go into blame, I know that then I'm stuck.
