Want more balance in your life? Learn to embrace pressure, mistakes, and failure. After a devastating fall from a horse, Lynn Carnes wrestled with the age-old question of whether to ever “get back on the horse.” The fear of another injury, coupled with just enough curiosity to ask “what really happened?” led her on a quest that revealed answers to questions she did not ask and led her to discover tools to face the pressure head on.
