When Setbacks Become Setups for Growth

Losing sucks—there’s no denying it. That sting of disappointment when things don’t go as planned is tough to shake. I’ve been there more times than I can count. But here’s the truth: losing doesn’t make you a loser, just like winning doesn’t automatically make you a champion. What really matters is what drives you to show up in the first place and how you respond when things don’t go your way.

For years, I let a fixed mindset hold me back. I let failure stick labels on me like “not good enough” or “incapable,” and I let fear of falling short stop me from trying again. But when I started embracing a growth mindset, everything changed. I began to see setbacks not as signs to give up but as opportunities to grow. Instead of asking, “Why me?” I started asking, “What can I learn from this?” That shift didn’t just build my resilience—it transformed the way I approached life.

At The Edge Girl, I want to empower you to see every setback as a setup for your next success. The pieces on our website aren’t just clothes—they’re reminders of your strength, courage, and ability to rise above. Whether you’re celebrating a win or dusting yourself off after a loss, remember this: you’re always growing, always evolving, and always worth it.

Let’s keep showing up, stronger and bolder every time.

Warmly,

Theresa Spann
Founder, The Edge Girl
