216. Why Your Low Failure Tolerance Is Keeping You Stuck (And How to Fix It)
Manage episode 505797420 series 2964084
Do you know what to do… but still fall short of your goals, again and again?
In this episode, Dara breaks down a concept that might just change everything: failure tolerance — your ability to try something, not get it quite right, and keep going without making it mean something terrible about you.
Using her own vulnerable story of struggling with Instagram (yes, even as a coach), Dara reveals the emotional trap so many of us fall into: showing up like “good students” instead of empowered women. She shares what finally shifted for her, how she’s applying this mindset to her current goals, and how you can build your own tolerance to failure — the essential skill for lasting weight loss, creative growth, and real life transformation.
You’ll hear:
Why being “a good student” doesn’t guarantee results
How perfectionism sneaks in as resentment, shame, and powerlessness
Why failure is not personal — it’s essential
The difference between diet thinking and growth thinking
How to start failing forward instead of spiraling
If you want to stop living on autopilot and start rowing your own boat — this is your episode.
