Fear of failure is something we all face—whether you’re launching a new project, taking a big career leap, or simply stepping out of your comfort zone. But what does fear of failure actually look like in your life?
For some, it’s that relentless inner critic, overthinking every decision. For others, it shows up as procrastination, perfectionism, or imposter syndrome. It might be people-pleasing tendencies, a fixed mindset, or a deep-seated fear of feeling shame or embarrassment.
But here’s the truth: there’s no such thing as failure.
As Tony Robbins says, failure doesn’t exist—it’s simply feedback. Thomas Edison, after countless attempts to invent the lightbulb, famously said, “I have not failed. I’ve just found 10,000 ways that won’t work.”
The key to overcoming fear isn’t avoiding it—it’s building resilience. When you embrace the idea that you can’t fail unless you try, you begin to shift your mindset. As Susan Jeffers’s book title reminds us, Feel the Fear and Do It Anyway.
Augustina Tetsola’s coaching is designed to help you work through these barriers. Whether it’s overcoming a fixed mindset, silencing that inner critic, or building confidence, Augustina provides the tools and guidance to transform fear into fuel for growth.
