Reframing Failure: Why finishing is the win

Lauren is sharing something really personal — the behind-the-scenes doubt I’ve been battling as I prepare to launch my newest children’s book, Ben Versus the Alphabet.

I talk about the pressure of not being a bestselling author, the fear of not being seen, and the real struggle of trying to promote a book while also being a full-time teacher. But more importantly, I share the mindset shift that’s helping me push forward anyway.

This episode is for the dreamers, the doers, and the people with big hearts who feel small in the middle of the process. If you’ve ever felt like your efforts might not be “enough,” this one is for you.

Let’s talk about the power of finishing what you start, the impact of showing up scared, and why one person helped is sometimes all the success you need.
