When Failure is Actually Protection

NOT A FAILURE, A REDIRECTION

We don’t talk enough about the kind of failure that’s actually saving you. In this episode, I’m sharing the story of how my first business—a coaching practice rooted in fitness and nutrition—never took off the way I thought it would. I used to see it as a failure. But now, I know it was a redirection. A protection. A necessary unraveling of a path that looked right but didn’t feel right.

If you’ve ever felt like something didn’t work out despite your best effort—this episode is for you.
We explore why some failures are actually safeguards, and how to recognize when you’re being invited into deeper alignment with who you really are.


🔑 IN THIS EPISODE, I SHARE:

  • The early days of my business and why I shifted directions

  • How mindset work kept calling me back, even when I tried to ignore it

  • Why “being good at something” doesn’t always mean you’re meant to do it

  • The hard truth about chasing a vision that doesn’t align

  • How failure can be a form of divine protection, not punishment


QUOTE TO REMEMBER:

"The failure of my coaching business wasn’t the end—it was protection from building a life that didn’t align with who I really am."
