✨The Other Side of Success is where we share stories of people who win big - and when they failed hard. By sharing true tales from the trenches, we expose an important truth of success: that failure along the way is not only inevitable, but required.

This is true in business, in entrepreneurship, in relationships, and in personal accomplishment - really, in the effort to build ANYTHING that matters.

It's not about glorifying failure, it's about humanizing success. Because, behind every success story, there's a tale of epic failure waiting to be told.

"I didn't think of myself as a failure. I thought of myself as broken."

Britt Frank, LSCSW, licensed neuro-psychotherapist and author of The Science of Stuck, shares her intimate relationship with failure, describing it as an abusive relationship that she couldn't escape. From addiction to professional set-backs, she ultimately broke the cycle and leaned into every misstep along the way to drive her current success.

Chris Waddell was in college when a skiing accident left him paralyzed from the waist down. The moment he learned that he would never walk again was a moment of reckoning, and it was in its own way, only the beginning.

What followed was an incredibly accomplished career as a Hall of Fame skier, 7 Paralympics, 13 medals, and a new mission to summit Mt. Kilimanjaro as an unassisted paraplegic.

Commitment, fear, success, identity, and craft are all interconnected themes that are evident in Chris Waddell's incredible story.

Jacqueline remembers the exact day that she lost complete control over her narrative, her business and her reputation.

She had been publicly celebrated across Australia as noisily as she was eviscerated when her renowned project with Hollywood's Sweetheart - an Oscar-winning actress and producer - ultimately fell through.

Jacqueline has never been able to tell her story, the mishaps and misunderstandings that decimated her business - until now.

And, yes, she's naming names.
