Season 2, Episode 6: If You Never Knock
In this episode of Pediatric Flow, Dr. Jolene Carlton, Pediatric Nurse Practitioner explores the fear of failure and what it really means to move forward despite uncertainty.
As healthcare professionals, we are trained to prevent mistakes, anticipate risk, and strive for precision. But growth, leadership, and entrepreneurship rarely come with guarantees. They require visibility. Courage and movement.
Dr. Carlton, PNP, challenges listeners to reconsider what they call "fear of failure" and reframes it as fear of exposure--the vulnerability of being seen trying.
Through reflection and encouragement, this episode is an invitation to apply, to launch, to speak and to step into expansion--even when the outcome is unknown. Because you don't have to know how every door will open.
But if you never knock, you'll never know.
