Reframing Failure & Focusing on Our Environmental Consumption

After taking a couple of weeks away from the podcast, I’ve had some time to reflect on my own perceptions and opinions surrounding failure. It’s an interesting one, as taking a break away from something I really love doing should never be seen as a personal loss. However, it’s brought up a lot of thoughts on how I view myself when I do feel like I’ve quote, unquote, failed. 


In today’s episode, I want to share my advice on how we can all reframe these concepts in our minds and ‘de-clutter’ the thoughts that run rampant in our own brains. A lot of our busyness and stress can often come from a need we have to constantly bite off more than we can chew, and many times it leads to us overworking ourselves and feeling those effects tenfold. 


I also share how the current books I’ve been reading relate to our current environmental crisis and give some insight into what we can learn from nature and apply to our own lives. If you’re keen to learn more, then tune in to Episode 10 of Flowerhood! 


In This Episode You Will Learn:


  • Why I’ve taken some time away from the podcast (2:12)
  • Why I tend to take on more projects when I’m already busy (3:28)
  • What I’ve asked myself in regards to my own workload (4:26)
  • How we can interpret the actions that our parents have modeled growing up, in our adult lives (5:25)
  • What I’m going to do to resolve my stress moving forward & How nature has helped me stay grounded (7:20)
  • Why busyness is a symptom of our own ‘mental clutter’ & What we can learn from our lack of judgment towards nature (10:08)
  • Why I passionately believe in reframing the idea of failure (13:11)
  • Some background on the books I’m currently reading, ‘Consequences of Love’ and ‘Our House is on Fire’ (17:05)
  • My thoughts on where we choose to place our focus both environmentally and personally (21:49)
