Cafe Grit 065 Talking Failure with Mike Goggin
Show Notes

Failure, discomfort, and vulnerability are all ways that we grow. So why do some people struggle with all three?

In Episode 065 of the Cafe Grit podcast, I talk again with my good friend Mike Goggin about failure. 

We dive into several questions around what seems to be an increasing trend of younger folks being challenged with things like discomfort and change.

Why is failure and learning from our mistakes important?

How does inexperience with failure and discomfort impact us in our early careers?

👉🏽 How can we mitigate new career fear of failure and help young employees become more comfortable with being uncomfortable?

How has remote working (and the pandemic years) impacted our young generation's ability to cope with the reality of failure and how we navigate it in the workplace?

This was a great topic and thank you to Mike for another awesome episode!

What are your thoughts on GenZ and dealing with failure, discomfort, and vulnerability? What about failure in general, is it a path to growth? 

For all you GenZ and late Millennials, do you feel like your generation is misrepresented as having difficulty dealing with negative situations, particularly failure?
