Feedback is fuel and failure is simply just feedback. I mean, that is all it is, essentially.

Failure is an opportunity to get feedback so that you can not just get back to where you were,

but maybe even above the water line of where you were. It's this mindset shift of recognizing that it's

not about perfection. And I think, you know, Rachel, when we think about women, that this

sometimes is something that we think we're supposed to have it all, do it all, you know, be the

perfect mom, wife, employee, teammate, whatever it might be in your world.

And I think we've got to pull back and say, you know what, maybe it's just about progress

and not perfection. And I think if we can make that mindset shift to not, you know, it's sort of

80% today is better than 100% tomorrow. Like we just have to go

versus think that it's all got to be in a neat, tidy little box with a bow on it.

Hey guys, it's Rach. Welcome to the show. I'm so glad that you're here with us today. And I have a favor,

which sounds kind of harsh if we just met, but I'm assuming that most of you have been a part of

this community for a hot minute. And so I got to ask, are you subscribed to the podcast?

Subscribing to the podcast you listen to regularly is one of the best things that you can do for hosts like me.

It helps to support the show and the staff that works on it.

It ensures that you never miss an episode when we drop a new one.

And here's a cool thing about subscribing.

If you do it and then you hate this show, just unsubscribe.

It's one click away.

In the meantime, if you're listening, we would so appreciate it if you you know, when I did your podcast, I tried to interview you and you were like, slow your roll.

We'll actually do this formally.

But I feel like you have so much wisdom and knowledge to offer this
