Welcome back to Aspiring Entrepreneur, the podcast for early-stage business owners who want to build something meaningful, stay connected to their “why”, and grow a business that actually feels right.

In this episode, Paul Culshaw and Tracey Parnell discuss a reality every entrepreneur faces: mistakes, setbacks, and things not going to plan.

We explore how to shift your perspective when challenges come up, and why the way you respond to setbacks will shape not only your business but your mindset too.

Because here’s the truth: there’s no such thing as failure, only learning.

We’ll be sharing three key takeaways to help you reframe mistakes as stepping stones, so you can keep moving forward with resilience, clarity, and confidence.

What you’ll hear in this episode:

➝ Why mistakes are part of the process and not the end of the story.

➝ How to reflect on setbacks without getting stuck in them.

➝ The mindset shift that separates those who give up from those who grow.

➝ Our own stories of things going wrong and what we learned from them.
