INTRODUCTION

Show Objectives - Adulting In My Purpose helps young leaders who aspire to become business owners prepare to take their first steps into entrepreneurship. Throughout this show, I will share lessons I have learned about entrepreneurship that every young leader needs to know before their journey begins. 

Everybody enjoys a success story. But, listening to these stories doesn't do us any favors because those tales aren't the whole picture: the struggles, the tough breaks, the defeats that set the stage for the eventual big win. Failure is all apart of the entrepreneurial journey. Every successful business story starts with failing. For this episode, we will discuss ways you can embrace failure as an entrepreneur and how to overcome it. 

Key Issues - Owner Perspective:
Your character is defined by your response to adversity. Since failure is a fact of life, there are ways to deal with it so you'll be able to overcome the setback. It's a process that can take some time, but responding healthily to lost opportunities is the only way to get back on track.
