In this episode Amy shares how failure builds character, compassion, resilience and creativity.

Sometimes the fear of failure is worse than failing. It’s truly not about how far you fail, but how high you bounce back that counts. Failure sometimes sets us back and causes us to hit the reset button, shift, pivot or do something different. Remember the cave you fear to enter holds the treasure you seek. Trust yourself, move through the fear and believe that the challenges you experience in life will only help you become successful.
