The Most Valuable Failure I've Had This Year (Jo Moment)

from Balance & Beyond · host Jo Stone

I cancel a workshop after ticket sales fall flat, and I unpack why that “public failure” ends up being one of my most valuable lessons this year. I show how to separate disappointment from self-doubt so we can move faster, learn more, and stop paying the hidden cost of personalising outcomes. • cancelling a workshop after strong early signs but no sales • perfectionism wounds and the urge to make it mean something • how personalising failure becomes expensive over time • why speed matters and self-doubt slows us down • the difference between disappointment and losing confidence • treating outcomes as experiments to protect self-worth • using feedback and data to refine and try again • the question that reveals what we are ignoring If this resonated, share it with a friend who needs to hear it today. And don't forget to subscribe to Balance and Beyond for full episodes and more of these bite sized breakthroughs.Send a text message to JoThe Balance & Beyond Podcast Hosted by Jo Stone, founder of The Balance InstituteFor women who are already succeeding, but beginning to wonder if they're willing to keep losing themselves in the process.We know high achievers, because we are one.
