Let’s face it: life is full of hardships. From lost opportunities, to less-than-favorable health diagnoses, to embarrassing workplace mistakes, difficulties and failures can make us feel beaten down and underqualified. But what if life didn’t have to be this way?

Andrea Heuston has spent decades carving out her own path as a female executive, and she has one piece of life-changing advice to share: fail forward. Though it is so easy to feel discouraged or pessimistic when you encounter hurdles in life and business, Andrea has learned that failure equals power.
