โจThe 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.
