We carry so much more than we show. The quiet fears. The weight of the past. The sting of mistakes. The scars from things that hurt us more than we ever admitted out loud.

Why Your Next Move Beats Your Last Mistake
Mistakes happen. Some small, some seismic. But here’s the truth no one says enough: your next move matters more than your last mistake.

Mistakes
