Entrepreneur Emily McIntyre was wracked by pain and self-doubt when her business failed. It took some time to see that the failure, also held great opportunity. The big things in life, she says, the biggest successes and biggest failures, call on us to be bigger. They help us clarify our vision and access our potential. But how can we find our vision and cope with the setbacks? In this episode, the leadership consultant, speaker, and entrepreneur explains how we can fail better to discover our vision, realize our potential, and "enjoy this point, this point of potent, intentionally." Failure is so close to success, McIntyre says. If we can see the opportunities there.

Are you harder on yourself than you are on others? Do you believe that the more critical of yourself, the better you will perform or more motivated you will be? Dr. Ashley Kuchar is a former collegiate student-athlete and the founder of Fail Better Training™. As a mental performance coach, she is passionate about helping athletes (of all levels) learn how to respond to challenging situations in ways that foster resilience rather than rely on harsh criticism. Ashley completed her PhD at The University of Texas at Austin, working alongside Dr. Kristin Neff. During her doctoral degree, Ashley developed a resilience program called RESET. She tested the 6-session program with over 250 NCAA student-athletes and found that it supported adaptive coping, well-being, and sport performance. In 2019, Ashley was one of five graduate students to receive an NCAA research grant to aid in the development of RESET (formerly "Fail Better"). In this podcast, Ashley and Cindra talk: The research-supported reasons we should practice self-compassion 3 components of self-compassion How self-compassion is a learnable skill How the best approach mistakes And how to reduce your inner critic HIGH PERFORMANCE MINDSET SHOWNOTES FOR THIS EPISODE: www.cindrakamphoff.com/586 FOLLOW CINDRA ON INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/cindrakamphoff/ FOLLOW CINDRA ON X: https://twitter.com/mentally_strong TO FOLLOW DR.

Seanna in her own words: “I am Seanna (pronounced like Shauna) and I am deep into my healing journey. I am a survivor of multiple severe traumas and some debilitating psychosis. I have been to some of the darkest places and led a very limited life for some time. As well as medication and therapy, I have found that carving out an intentional life and staying true to my values has helped me to not only survive, but truly thrive. After spending two months as an inpatient in a trauma clinic, I discovered embodied healing practices, and later qualified as a breathwork facilitator. I aim to live a life that is aligned with who I am, focusing on physical, mental, emotional and spiritual wellbeing as well as a life full of adventure. In 2022, I thru hiked the Israel National Trail over two months on my own, which is over 1,000 km. The inner journey was even more powerful than the tangible one, and now I give talks on overcoming adversity and being guided by intuition to live your best, most intentional life.” Content Warning - During this episode; mental health, trauma, self harm, dark thoughts and psychosis is discussed.

Run towards failure! If you want to be successful, you have to become familiar with failure. It's part of the deal. No successful business owner has gotten to where they are without a bad launch, no professional athlete has gotten into the big leagues without a bad game, no actor has landed an award-winning role without being told NO a hundred times before. I'm certainly no exception, and neither are you. Failure is a precursor, inevitability, a rite of passage to success. In this special, extended episode of The Mindset Coach Academy Podcast, I dig deep into the psychology of failure and the big questions surrounding it. For example: Why do we avoid failure? Hint: It has to do with our caveman/lizard brain How do the stories we tell ourselves about past or future failures define us? How can our fear and avoidance of failure act as a mirror? What becoming familiar with failure do to our brain? Psychologically speaking, what's the best way to “run toward failure”? From failing in the WNBA to failing in business, I talk openly about the times I let myself down. I share the stories I used to tell myself about failure, and how they've changed over the years. Finally, I give you tons of actionable tips to help you reframe the way you think about failure. Listen to this extended episode and join me as I run towards failure! Ps.

What is your relationship like with failure? Do you consider yourself to be a risk taker? Or are you someone who likes to play it safe and stick to what you know? When things don't work out... what do you make it mean? Do you tend to keep going, when the going gets tough? Or, do you sometimes feel overwhelmed and shut down?In this week's Infinite Capacity Podcast episode, host Andrea Morton examines how our thinking about failure can impact our willingness to put ourselves out there to try new things.Morton explores how the emotions connected to our fails can have a big impact on our level of resilience, grit and perseverance in the face of challenges.This episode also takes a look at how motherhood can inadvertently become a 'failure enabler' as Moms get wrapped up in our children's goals and dreams. Lots of powerful questions here to help you make a breakthrough in your own relationship with failure, so that you can take action!

We've got halfway through the number one albums of 1993 and have come across this beast which was at the top spot for seven weeks that summer. Is that because it's totally amazing and the British public were right to keep on buying it? Or is it because they did an Elvis cover that was lightweight enough to get on the radio constantly? It's a mystery. Thankfully alongside having to discuss this record we get to talk about other acts such as Clutch, Cypress Hill and, er, Snow. We'd also like to take the opportunity to plug some of our previous podcast guests who have new podcasts out themselves at the minute: Sean Mcloughlin who joined us for our ABBA special has a new one up and running with fellow comedian Jonny Pelham called Failing Better and their guest on the current episode is Ed Gamble; and Rob Mulholland who joined us for our Hip Hop in 1991 special is going great guns with his new podcast Dead Men Talking alongside co-host Freddy Quinne (warning - this one is not for the easily offended). So do go and check them out if they sound up your street.
This week Nic and James take a different approach to the issues and bring things a bit closer to home. The two use the segment "Failing Better," to share their small wins and victories as junior faculty and acknowledge how far they've come. Nic confesses his love of spreadsheets (send him your tips and tricks!) and James hits his stride with administrative work. Truly, they're learning and learning good! (Don't burst their bubble, please.) Then, in an absolutely sobering fashion, the duo discusses the massive coordinated effort across the U.S. to ban books at every level. The children's books first, then the young adult fiction, and finally the adult romance novel you've tucked away under your bed out of fear of being found out that you do, in fact, love a trashy scene. Who doesn't?! But, seriously, we should all be concerned. Ideas are dangerous, but banning books is even more dangerous. We recommend you urge your local library to not ban books or, if possible, buy a banned book. Need recommendations? The links below should help you out.

"Yippee!" is probably the last thing you want to yell when you encounter failure. Your exclamations are probably more of the four letter variety. But Kat Koppett wants you to at consider celebrating failure and on this first episode of Failing Better, she'll tell us why. Koppett is a trainer, facilitator, improvisor, applied improv expert and eponymous founder of Koppett, where she's traveled the world teaching improv and creativity to companies like Facebook, Apple and JPMorgan Chase. She's also one of the forces behind the MopCo Improv Theater, a leading force in the Upstate New York improv scene. You can hear some great discussions about failure and other improv topics, check out Kat's podcast, Dare To Be Human. Also on this episode: Mary shares one of her greatest public failures. Spoiler alert-- it involves goats.
There's more that unites us than divides us. One of the many things we have in common? Failure. There comes a point in everyone's life when things don't go as planned -- in big ways or small ones. And while we're afraid to admit our own failures, we love to hear stories of failure, and resilience of others. So maybe failure can be something more than just a moment where we didn't get what we wanted. Maybe failure can be more than just a tool for learning. Maybe failure can help unite us. Maybe.
Kat Koppett has traveled the world teaching companies like Apple, Facebook and JP Morgan Chase how to use improv for creativity. She's a teacher, presenter, coach, mentor. She'll join us next on Failing Better.

The Sea That You Cannot See by Dganit Elyakim dedicated to Haitham Khatib How do you deliver a message of hope in our forlorn reality? Maybe the answer lies in the sea, which is completely indifferent to the nations that “rule” its beach shores, they rise and fall, like the sea waves. I asked my friends to describe the sea to their beloveds from the other side of the barrier, the ones who are prevented from approaching it. The actor, director and writer Mohamad Bakri described the sea to his friend Hassan; Hanan Zaid Elkilani, a young, emerging art student, portrayed the sea to her father's friend, Prof. Ahsan Eldick, from Nablus; Maya Felixbrodt (viola) played for the freedom fighters Ahed (16) and Nariman Tamimi from Nabi Saleh; Adaya Godlevsky (harp) dedicated her playing to the children of Palestine; and Samira Saraya painted the sea in words and sang for her family in the refugee camp in Jenin. Dganit Elyakim is a composer and an artist. Her music depicts various aspects of the human and digital paradigm. Her oeuvre includes chamber, vocal, and electroacoustic compositions, as well as music for theatre, dance, new-media and video. In 2016, she released her debut album “Failing Better”. Lecturer at Shenkar College and artistic director of “The Unbearable Lightness of Coherency” concert series. In 2018, she will be a guest artist at La Cité Internationale Des Arts in Paris and at Styria Artist in Residence in Graz. Lascia Vibrare: There's a Family Living by Eran Sachs Dedicated to Michael Zupraner At the center of this piece there is a field recording of a family, captured from a distance. On first listen there doesn't seem to be anything particularly special about this recording; but over the course of this reportage it becomes apparent that the act of documentation may register more than one might have initially suspected. Eran Sachs is a composer, improviser and sound-artist working in Jerusalem and Tel-Aviv.
