Why do we fear failure so much—and how is that fear keeping us stuck?
In this powerful episode of Shifts and Giggles, Rafer shares a heartfelt story about watching his son struggle (and succeed) through the hardest level of a video game—and uses it to unpack why failure isn’t the enemy. In fact, it’s the path.
You’ll learn how to reframe failure from being something final to something formative, how your brain actually grows more from failing than succeeding, and why perfection is a myth that’s holding you back.
Whether you're facing a setback, stuck in fear, or struggling to keep going, this episode will help you see failure as the gift that it truly is.
