    The other day, I listened to this really wonderful podcast the other day called “ A Slight Change of Plans” where host cognitive scientist Maya Shankar talked with her guest Adam Grant about “Unlocking your potential”  What particularly stood out with me was how they talked about failing taking neuroscience into consideration. 

  • „from a neuroscientific perspective  the best way to boost brain plasticity is to fail at things", says Maya in the episode. 

    Today I want to explore how this applies to us podcasters and how this neuroscientific approach to looking at failing can also help us to uncover our full potential as podcasters. 

    Failing is something that every podcaster experiences, yet very few of us like to talk about. Whether it’s forgetting to hit record on a perfect interview or realizing your format just isn’t clicking with your audience, these moments of "oops" and "oh no" are actually gifts in disguise.

    By the end of this episode, I’ll show you why failing is one of the most valuable things you can do for your podcast, including your first 3 steps to start embracing failure to reach your podcasting goals.
