  So, as I continue to do on an almost daily basis.

  Please try, and if you fail, try again.

  And again.

  And again.

  And maybe even again.

  Never give up, because if you don’t get up from off the ground after another failure, you’ll surely miss the miracle when it comes.

  About the Author

  AMANDA DE CADENET is a creative force with a lifelong career in the media. She began as a host on British television at the age of fifteen and became a sought-after photographer shortly after—as a result her impressive photography career already spans nearly twenty years. She is the youngest woman ever to shoot a Vogue cover and has photographed many of the most influential figures in popular and political culture.

  As a media entrepreneur, Amanda is the creator of The Conversation, a series that showcases her in-depth interviews on real topics with celebrated women. Whether it’s in conversations with Lady Gaga, Sarah Silverman, Zoe Saldana, Chelsea Handler, or Gwyneth Paltrow, or in discussions with devoted followers of her social channels, Amanda consistently delivers an honest and authentic voice. The series has aired in eighteen countries and is featured online, with over ten million viewers. In January 2016, Amanda conducted an exclusive one-on-one interview with presidential candidate Secretary Clinton.

  In February 2016, Amanda launched #Girlgaze, a digital media company utilizing user-submitted content and highlighting the work of female Gen Z photographers and directors. #Girlgaze is dedicated to closing the gender gap by creating visibility and tangible jobs for girls behind the lens. With over one million submissions and counting, #Girlgaze has expanded into original content, IRL events, and EComm.
