None of us are perfect. Come celebrate, and learn from our mistakes!
We’ve all been there - so why not be there, together?
The positive way to frame mistakes is of course, “these were just learning experiences”, but it sure doesn’t feel like that in the moment.
We all process mistakes that we make differently. Some people hold onto it. Some immediately move to problem-solving but the true camp pros out there know how to own the suck, not repeat it and set others up for success.
We’re grateful for the vulnerability that Gabz, Travis, Chris and Joe show in this episode by sharing about the small…and not so small screw-ups in their camping careers.
Come commiserate with us in this episode!
