Description
The Art of Failing: Learning Through Setbacks is a panel-style lunch and learn where local women will be talking about how "failure" taught them something that helped them expand their business, career, or life in general. Rather than viewing failing as a setback, we'll be discussing how failure can be an opportunity.
