The Balanced Mind- Mistakes

Loading player...
We are taught that making mistakes is bad, but human beings do not come with an instruction manual. In this episode of The Balanced Mind, professional counsellor Deon Bicycle breaks down why getting things wrong is an essential part of living—if you know how to look at it.
Stripping away the complicated therapy talk, Deon shares simple, science-backed strategies from Stanford, Cornell, and Harvard to help you untangle your self-worth from your slip-ups. You will discover the crucial differences between minor practice runs, high-stakes blindspots, and the quiet danger of doing absolutely nothing at all.
