Keep Creating: Turning setbacks into what’s next with Melissa Bernstein + Tami Simon WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 2, AT 8 PM ET | 5 PM PT How do you know when to keep trying, and when it’s time to try something else? Join us for a candid conversation about failure, self-trust, and making the call when the answer isn’t obvious. As cofounder of Melissa & Doug, Melissa Bernstein has spent more than 35 years turning ideas into successful products, and living through thousands that didn’t work. Her biggest lesson became a simple practice for work and life: keep creating. When something fails, you learn from it and keep creating. When the way you’ve always done something stops working, you adapt and keep creating. And when it becomes clear that it’s time to let something go, you take what you’ve learned with you and begin again. Because sometimes the thing you need to let go of isn’t the dream itself. It’s just the way you thought you were going to get there. ▶️ https://innermba.soundstrue.com/keep-creating/ MELISSA BERTSTEIN is an entrepreneur, creative, and working mother of six.
