Welcome to the Teen Life Coach podcast. I'm Coach Sammy and I am so glad you are here.

The teen years can be fun and exciting, but also filled with self-doubt, insecurities, and lots of frustration.

I am here to help you along your teen journey and make sure you enjoy your teen years as

much as possible. Let's get started.

Hey, everyone. Welcome to the podcast today. We have another amazing guest for you guys today. His name is Alec Wanz. And he is an author.

He is an athlete. He is a man of all different kinds of trades. And he's going to be talking to us

about failure today, you guys. And he's an expert on failure, probably because he's

failed a lot in life, as we all have. And I think this is such an important conversation because

the more that I work with, more of you, you have such a big fear of messing up and fear of

failing. And I really want Alex to be here today to just talk about

how failure can be a good thing, right? We've got to change our mindset around the way that

we think about failure. So, Alec, why don't you go ahead and introduce yourself, tell us your

story. Tell us all the things. Yeah,

thank you very much, Sammy, for the great introduction and for having me on your podcast today.

I really wish I had a resource like this when I was in high school. I'm 24 years old,

for those of you don't know, so recently out of college a year ago, but Sammy and the resources

you provide are astounding

and you're all very fortunate to have a woman like her in your life so a little bit about me

yes i have done many things and i still continue to do many things and i have failed doing a lot of

things but that does not mean that I'm a failure.

There's a big difference between being a failure, which no one is.

So that's not true.
