322 | Failing Fantastically: The Skill Nobody Teaches You

Couple Things with Shawn and Andrew

Show Notes

This episode we talked about one of the most important life skills that nobody really teaches us: how to fail well. We shared why failure isn't something to fear, but something to embrace, and how our biggest setbacks often become the moments that shape us the most.

However... one show DOES teach us this and that's Gabbys Dollhouse! During a segment of this episode we had the pleasure of sitting down with the star of Gabbys Dollhouse, Laila Lockhart Kraner, to talk about a puppy-riffic addition coming to the Dollhouse.

Watch Gabby and her little sister Doozie, played by Celestina Harris, in their first adventure together in an all-new season of #GabbysDollhouse, debuting September 14 only on Netflix!

Love you guys!
