Episode How to Fail Better in EMS: A Framework for Growth
Stephanie Suzadail's favorite word is "fail." She'll tell you why and how we should embrace it.
In this episode she walks through the difference between failure that builds you and failure that breaks you. Why Sisyphus is a warning, not a role model. Why the best clinicians you'll ever work with have made bigger mistakes than you have. Why high-functioning organizations report mistakes ten times more often than average ones. Why self-identified perfectionists only ever climb to "moderately successful."
