Mistakes Build Confidence

What if we embraced mistakes as essential to growth in parenting, education, and leadership?

In this clip from the Now What? with Yogi Patel podcast, renowned Montessori educator and author Paula Lillard Preschlack explains how children in Montessori environments are encouraged to make mistakes, self-correct, and build confidence through their own discovery process.

Instead of being corrected or graded, students learn to trust themselves, and it changes everything.
