Failure doesn’t mean you’re a failure — and this episode proves it. This week on Miss Matched, Nicole sits down with Marsha Druker, community builder, podcaster, and the force behind Fuckup Nights Toronto. For the past eight years, Marsha has built a space where entrepreneurs, creatives, and professionals share their biggest mistakes instead of their polished success stories. Together, they dive into why failure is really just feedback, how Marsha’s own layoffs and pivots shaped her path, and how to separate the idea of failing from being a failure. They also explore the power of community in turning setbacks into comebacks and the lessons learned from hundreds of unfiltered stories.

From crying over test scores as kids to losing jobs and relationships as adults, Nicole and Marsha get real about what it means to fall, get back up, and find purpose in the mess. If you’ve ever felt like you’re “not good enough” after a setback, this conversation is your reminder that failure isn’t the end — it’s just part of the story.
