"What if failure isn’t a flaw, but a feature of our human learning system?" In this episode of Business is Human, Rebecca Fleetwood Hession explores how shame and performance-driven identities can distort our future and block authentic growth. Instead of striving for perfection, Rebecca invites us to see failure as a sacred curriculum, the very path to wisdom, resilience, and purpose. Drawing from both neuroscience and scripture, she reframes the way we relate to setbacks in business and life, showing how reflection, not regret, is the path to character and calling. In this episode, you’ll learn:How shame traps the brain in survival mode,  and how stillness helps rewire it for growth.Why reframing failure fuels dopamine and neuroplasticity better than success alone.A spiritual and scientific approach to letting go of guilt and embracing your true identity.
