About this listen

Good morning and happy Monday. Thank you for joining me for another episode of "M" is for Mondays.

Today, I'm sharing a story about a monumental, Messy moment from my past—one that still stirs up feelings of shame, fear, and anxiety as I revisit it. But from that same moment came profound lessons about asking for help, leaning on the support of others, the importance of using my voice, and how to overcome failure (which, in fact, is an essential part of being a scientist).

In this episode, I open up about the time I almost flunked out of grad school—a journey through culture shock, feelings of inadequacy, and, ultimately, triumph (and the birth of Dr. K!).

Tune in for this story as we unpack what it means to fail forward.

I'd love to hear how this story resonates with you. Find me on Instagram @dr.k.diggs and let's connect.
