Hillary walks through some of the lessons that come with making mistakes, falling short of your goals, and having to pick yourself back up after you’ve been knocked down.

Overcoming Setbacks

It can be easy to talk yourself out of trying new or uncomfortable things, but Hillary shares why it’s important to let go of the “perfectionist gene” and work through your fears.
