her insight about the process of learning being just as valuable as the end result was really great to hear… I tend to focus a lot of on outcomes and I agree it takes away from the journey.
I can totally relate to her childhood determination. when I was a kid, I was fearless about trying new things. somewhere along the way I lost that. this talk is making me want to reconnect with that part of myself.
her breakdown of how fear of failure affects different age groups was so fascinating! It's clear this is a thing everyone faces but how it manifests differently throughout our lives is really interesting!
This talk made me reflect on how I've been approaching failure in my own life. I know I can be really hard on myself so I’m going to try to shift my perspective and see setbacks as opportunities for growth rather than personal flaws.
her story about the rockets audition was so good! such a great example of how persistence and creative problem-solving can help you overcome seemingly insurmountable obstacles
the way she connected her experience as a dancer to overcoming challenges in the business world was brilliant... to me it shows how skills and mindsets can transfer across different areas of life and makes me wonder what lessons from my own background I could apply to current obstacles!
I've been letting the fear of failure hold me back for years, but hearing her perspective made me realize how much I'm missing out on. I really want to do something to change that.
I love the idea of breaking down big goals into small, daily actionable steps! I get overwhelmed by the big picture a lot of the time so I think this might really work for me
I like to think that I've stayed pretty fearless since being a kid and even though failure hurts, I pick myself up and keep trying because to me, failing at something is the first step towards being awesome at it
I appreciate how she addressed the darker side of failure, like her experience with the inappropriate boss. It's a good reminder that not all failures are our fault, and sometimes walking away is the right choice. Important perspective to keep in mind.
The part about kids showing off their imperfect attempts really resonated with me. I've gotten so caught up in trying to be perfect that I've forgotten the joy of just trying and learning...
I never thought about how my relationship with failure has changed since childhood. This talk has me wondering how different my life could be if I approached new challenges with the same fearlessness I had as a kid.
Yes, if more people viewed their perceived failures as part of the process, they'd see what they were truly capable of accomplishing in life. Failures are only failures when we stop showing up.
I get what she's saying about failure and how it leads to growth and I do agree that challenging times can help us with our development but it's also a really good thing to just know our limits and when to call it quits
I'm fascinated by the idea of reframing our relationship with failure... It's so easy to get caught up in the negative emotions, but viewing it as a necessary part of the learning process is a really productive and powerful mindset.
The way she broke down the impact of social media on our perception of failure was spot-on. I've definitely fallen into the trap of comparing my behind-the-scenes to everyone else's highlight reels. Gotta remind myself that those perfect posts aren't the full story.
I found the story about standing up to injustice empowering. It's a reminder that integrity is worth fighting for, even if it comes at a personal cost.
The statistics about how many people avoid trying new things due to fear of failure are honestly heartbreaking. We're all missing out on so much potential growth and joy!
It’s alarming that we’ve collectively allowed something that happens to everyone (failure) become something that is feared and allow it to control us. That being said, by openly talking about it, we can take back control over our selves and push through to our greatest accomplishments.
It's sad how many people are held back by their fear of not being perfect... I feel like if more people saw those stats and understood how common it was it would be really freeing for everyone
Yes, I agree. I believe we need more transparency in what it took to achieve our “success” stories, sharing the perceived failures and missteps encountered.
Great speech - very inspirational and really relatable! So proud of you for constantly overcoming your small failures in order to reach your much bigger and impressive goals.
It’s all about having a healthy relationship with failure and intentionally doing things to grow your confidence or make yourself proud! This talk was soooo good!!! 🎉 Bravo Laura!!!
Such a great talk! Having been there with you from the rockette audition dance in the back office, and probably meeting you for drinks after you threw water in his face...so proud of you!
It's far scarier now for people to fail with confidence with social media. It's good for people to normalize it so that others know it's part of the process. Wonder what ever happened to the horrid boss? Hope he's in jail.
Thanks for weighing in here. I don’t believe we are actually in disagreement, however. My point is that we need to view the concept of failure differently than the end. If we “cut losses” we are essentially correcting action, rather giving up, and accepting failure as the final or end. It’s my belief that failure is part of the learning process, not the end.

Imagine what you can build, create, and accomplish when you start trying new things again and stop judging yourself as you learn them.
her breakdown of how fear of failure affects different age groups was so fascinating! It's clear this is a thing everyone faces but how it manifests differently throughout our lives is really interesting!
What she says about the difference between perceived failure and actual failure really struck me. I've definitely made that mistake in the past
This talk made me reflect on how I've been approaching failure in my own life. I know I can be really hard on myself so I’m going to try to shift my perspective and see setbacks as opportunities for growth rather than personal flaws.
Setbacks are where the real lessons in life come from. You've got this!
her story about the rockets audition was so good! such a great example of how persistence and creative problem-solving can help you overcome seemingly insurmountable obstacles
thank you, feeling motivated to be more open about my struggles and growth process.
Wow, that story about the creepy boss was intense. Well done to her for standing up for herself in that situation
Thank you for watching and commenting!
It's so easy to get overwhelmed by the big picture, I can see how focusing on consistent small actions would feel much more manageable
Yes!! It’s consistently moving towards your goals, one small, step at a time!
@@lauracasselman5224 truth bomb!!!!

This talk has me thinking about ways I can be more authentic online and maybe even share some of my "learning moments".
The learning moments are what we all need more of! Please share.
I love the idea of breaking down big goals into small, daily actionable steps! I get overwhelmed by the big picture a lot of the time so I think this might really work for me
Small steps, stay consistent, deliver on promises to yourself, and celebrate all the wins (even the small ones!!)
The call to reject the 'highlight reel' narrative is such a good one! Embracing our imperfections is what leads to authenticity 💜
Yes, social media can have positive moments, but it is largely damaging to many people. The highlight reel narrative being one of the darker sides.
I like to think that I've stayed pretty fearless since being a kid and even though failure hurts, I pick myself up and keep trying because to me, failing at something is the first step towards being awesome at it
Wonderful!

Isn’t it wild how we can perceive failure as our own, when we were only impacted by someone else’s? Dark as it may be, walking away becomes our win!
I appreciate the honesty about the struggles with failure, it's refreshing to hear someone talk about setbacks without sugar-coating
Thank you. I believe they're part of the process and certainly part of life.
her energy was infectious! you can tell she really believes in what she's saying and t's inspiring to see someone so passionate about helping others ❤
The part about kids showing off their imperfect attempts really resonated with me. I've gotten so caught up in trying to be perfect that I've forgotten the joy of just trying and learning...
Yes - the trap of being perfect is one we need to free ourselves from so we can get back to learning and growing.
Powerful Must Watch Talk!!
Thank you, Jessica!
This is a great reminder that sometimes what feels like a failure in the moment can actually be a stepping stone to something better.
Stepping stones to our greatest wins!!!
I never thought about how my relationship with failure has changed since childhood. This talk has me wondering how different my life could be if I approached new challenges with the same fearlessness I had as a kid.
The work she did in terms of reframing failure was really commendable... it's a crucial mindset shift that many could benefit from.
Yes, if more people viewed their perceived failures as part of the process, they'd see what they were truly capable of accomplishing in life. Failures are only failures when we stop showing up.
The part about social media creating unrealistic expectations really hit me hard. I've definitely felt that pressure to only show my successes.
I wish we would all start posting our failures like badges of honor!
I get what she's saying about failure and how it leads to growth and I do agree that challenging times can help us with our development but it's also a really good thing to just know our limits and when to call it quits

YES! And mindset matters greatly.
@@lauracasselman5224 it sure does... thanks

Sometimes, even I still get wrapped up in comparison. That’s usually when I know it’s time to limit my time on social and focus on my life/work. 😊
This is a really awesome talk! Thank you for inspiring me to push myself out of my comfort zone more often.
You’re worth the push.
Solid advice! Failing hurts but it's the first step towards success!
Failing hurts until you accept it as part of getting to where you want to be. Thanks for watching!
The analogy with childhood optimism and grown-up self-criticism really resonates. We could all benefit from embracing our 'cartwheels' more openly!
Yes, let's all show off our best cartwheels without fear of a misstep, so that we can find out what we are truly capable of achieving!
We really do lose some resilience as we grow old. But I agree I feel
Social media is accelerating the issue. Great talk
I found the story about standing up to injustice empowering. It's a reminder that integrity is worth fighting for, even if it comes at a personal cost.
Yes, standing up for ourselves and keeping our integrity is worth the cost every time!
The statistics about how many people avoid trying new things due to fear of failure are honestly heartbreaking. We're all missing out on so much potential growth and joy!
It’s alarming that we’ve collectively allowed something that happens to everyone (failure) become something that is feared and allow it to control us.

Loved hearing about this journey, it's incredible how determination and perseverance can turn dreams into reality!

An inspiring view of believing in yourself! Thank you!

I disagree with the criticism of social media. It can inspire as much as it can mislead, depending on how it's used.
Yes, for some people it can certainly be inspiring.
ISTORIA PRA BOI DURMIR ❤❤❤🤣🤣🤣
ANTOINE, HOW ARE YOU FEELING , NOW! 😮😮😮😂😂🎉🎉
I disagree with the idea that failure is always beneficial. Sometimes it's better to cut losses and move on rather than persisting.
