Description

Do you ever look at successful people and get stuck in their highlight reel? We then look at our own mess ups and feel alone, broken and not cut out for the job. Hosted by founder and social entrepreneur Liz Bohannon, Plucking Up is a podcast that talks about failures beyond the platitudes and how celebrated authors, entrepreneurs, artists and leaders in their own field moved past mistakes and wrong turns, in order to build lives of purpose, passion and impact. Each week, Liz shares uninhibited conversations with guests including Elizabeth Gilbert, Arianna Huffington, and many more.
