Description

We’ve all heard that experience is the best teacher—but what if I told you that’s only half the story? What if the real power isn’t just in what you go through, but in how you look back and learn from it? Today, Barry dives into why experience alone isn’t enough—and how evaluating your experiences is the secret sauce to real growth. Stick around, because if you’re not reflecting on your journey, you might just be repeating the same mistakes over and over again!
