The Importance of Teaching Our Girls to Embrace Failure

Since 2014, the Always #LikeAGirl campaign has worked to tackle the barriers to girls’ confidence because research shows that half lose confidence at puberty and many never fully recover. Results from new study among girls ages 16-24 found 50% of girls feel paralyzed by the fear of failure. Always discovered 7 out of 10 girls avoid trying new things because they’re so afraid to fail.
