Over Coffee at L'Oréal – Starting out at L'Oréal

In this candid exchange on the "Over Coffee at L'Oréal" set, guest Emma and SeedZ Management Trainees Max and Maryna dive into a vulnerable discussion about setbacks and professional learning. Filmed around vintage microphones in a friendly coffee-shop lounge, they demystify failure in the corporate world, culminating in an empowering mantra on how missteps ultimately serve as our most valuable stepping stones.

Emma (Guest): Failing is learning, and I think you learn so much more when you fail. And failing sucks. It's not easy, it's not enjoyable. We've all done it and we've all kind of felt it...

Max (Host): Trust me, I've been there many a time before. Don't get that wrong.
[Visual: Maryna laughs warmly]
Max (Host): Exactly, exactly. I have a little cheeky saying...
Emma (Guest): Not us, though!

[Visual: Max smiling and playfully defending his track record to the table]
Max (Host): Come on, guys! I've still got the job somehow! I have got a little saying which I always remind myself, which I'll share with you guys now, in those moments of failure when it's happened again and he's done it again... [Visual: Maryna and Emma listen with amusement]
Max (Host): You either win or you learn.

[Visual: Wide shot as Emma and Maryna nod in realization and approval]
Emma & Maryna (Guest & Host): Ah, okay!
