Episode Summary:

In this special Q&A episode—launched on International Women’s Day—Angela Vassallo kicks off her weekly Q&A with Angela, where she answers questions from women navigating transformation, reinvention, and business growth.

Today, Angela tackles three powerful questions on overcoming fear of failure, rediscovering purpose, and building resilience after setbacks. She shares personal insights, real-life experiences, and strategies to help women push through fear, stop worrying about judgment, and take bold steps toward reinvention.

Key Takeaways:

Pushing Through Fear & Judgment

• Fear of failure, rejection, and criticism are the top three things that hold women back.
• The biggest mindset shift? Your social media isn’t for your family and friends—it’s for the people you’re here to help!
• Judgment will always exist, but focus on who you’re serving, not who’s watching.

How to Begin Your Transformation When You Feel Stuck

• Many women in their 40s & 50s are asking, "What’s next?"
• Feeling misaligned is a sign that reinvention is needed—it’s about finding what truly aligns with you.
• Start by reflecting on your unique skills, strengths, and past experiences—you already have the tools to create a new path.

Building Resilience & Bouncing Back After Setbacks

• Failure and struggle are part of the process—the obstacle is the way.
• Every setback has a lesson. Instead of resisting challenges, see them as opportunities for growth.
• The key to resilience? Learn to bounce back faster every time. Keep moving forward, even when it feels hard.

Navigating the “Messy Middle” of Reinvention

• Transitioning into your next chapter isn’t a straight line—it’s a process.
• Whether you’re experiencing career shifts, an identity crisis, or the impact of menopause, it’s all part of the reinvention journey.
• The most important decision you can make? Decide you’re going to push through and create the life you truly want.
