Jen and Dagda dive deep into the concept of failure and why it's actually a crucial part of success. After a redacted rant about Seattle (seriously, don't ask), they discuss Dagda's conversation with Miss Z about her fear of failing. Dagda shares three personal failures: bombing his pilot's ground course in high school due to laziness, failing biology despite acing every test because he didn't do homework, and his most significant failure—EOD school in the military. The conversation explores self-sabotage, the importance of humility, and how every failure puts you exactly where you're supposed to be. They also touch on Tesla's driverless cab plans, Kevin Bacon aging, parental comparisons, and the ancient philosopher Diogenes who chose extreme simplicity after being banished from wealth. A raw, honest conversation about embracing failure as a teacher, not an enemy.
