In this episode, Scott tackles the fear of failure and why it hits men so deeply. When our identity is tied to competence and performance, even small mistakes can feel like personal collapse — driving defensiveness, withdrawal, overworking, or escape. But failure was never meant to define us; it can form us. Drawing from Scripture and everyday fatherhood, Scott reframes failure as an opportunity for growth, humility, and restoration, reminding dads that their worth isn’t settled by their last success or mistake — and that how they recover from failure may be one of the most powerful lessons they ever teach their kids.
