☔️ When It Rains, It Pours! How to Reframe FAILURE and Keep Moving Forward

Ever had one of those weeks where everything seems to go wrong?

This week, RV Queens Podcast host Kate White found herself completely knocked out by a mystery virus—six days in bed, zero energy, and absolutely no productivity. On top of that, unexpected expenses piled up, from truck repairs to insurance bills, and even her visiting in-laws (whom she loves) were sick too. It was one of those weeks.

As Kate rested, her mind kept running in circles, replaying one frustrating thought: I’m failing. She found herself dwelling on everything she wasn’t doing—missed podcast recordings, canceled meetings, unanswered emails. But in the midst of it all, she had a realization: her worth isn’t tied to her productivity. 

And neither is yours!

In this solo episode, Kate shares her personal struggle with rest, productivity, and self-worth, unpacking why so many high-achieving women feel guilty when they’re forced to slow down. She also breaks down the four mindset shifts that helped her escape the “failing storm” and reframe her week in a healthier way.

Key Takeaways

1️⃣ Zoom Out on the Bigger Picture

• A tough week feels massive in the moment, but will it matter in a month? Probably not.

2️⃣ Separate Tasks from Self-Worth

• Failing at a task doesn’t mean you are a failure. Productivity isn’t the measure of personal value.

3️⃣ Look for the Lesson

• Challenges always carry lessons. The sooner they’re learned, the less they repeat.

4️⃣ Expect the Blessing After the Storm

• Life storms don’t last forever, and often, something good is waiting on the other side.

For fellow travelers, business owners, and dreamers who have ever felt behind, this episode is a reminder to give yourself grace and redefine what success actually means.
