This episode is about why failure takes courage and how sometimes your mistakes can turn out to be a good thing in disguise.

Listen as your 12 years old hosts take you on a journey into a pit where it feels like sharks and snakes are waiting for you!… This uncomfortable place is often referred to as 'the pit of learning'.

Hear interviews with other kids from around the school about their mistakes, courage and some VERY interesting 'Quick Polls' involving sharks, fires and nudity!

The Grow Your Mind animals share a story about a farmer and some instances of so called luck. And the Elephant locks in a few important lessons for our brains to remember next time about failure.
