Dr. Samuel West: Embracing Failure: A Journey of Innovation and Progress with the Founder of the Museum of Failure

If at first you don't succeed, try, try again. Most entrepreneurs don't achieve success on their first try. But what if you fail several times in a row?

In an eye-opening conversation with Dr. Samuel West—Founder of the Museum of Failure—we explore the connections between fear, risk-taking, and failure. Samuel dedicated his career as a psychologist to understanding the role of failure in innovation and progress. What he uncovered was the paradoxical connection between failure and success. He created the Museum of Failure for people to share stories of their biggest setbacks. But would these tales help others embrace their own shortcomings?

Here's how Samuel started the Museum of Failure and why he believes accepting failure is the first step toward growth.
