Free Lunch & Learn Workshop – Thinking Toolbox: Failure

Wednesday, May 16 // 11:30am-1pm

It’s so hard for us to deal with, that we don’t spend a lot of time thinking about the relationship we have with failure. The irony, though, is that failure is one of the most important things to your brain. If you never failed anything throughout your lifetime, you couldn’t walk, talk, ride a bike, or relate to people; everything that’s meaningful to us has a string of failures that’s a part of our story. Instinctively, we all know that failure is important, but we don’t want to talk about, think about and certainly not experience it, definitely not in front of other people. Join us for a lunch and learn workshop, where we’ll dive a little deeper into the science behind failure, and a tool that you can use to help you reframe your experience with failure.
