In this episode of the Failure Is Knowledge Podcast, Robert Kennedy explains why he named his company Kinetic Communications—connecting kinetic energy (movement) with his last name, and how his work focuses on moving people “from where they are right now to their desired state.”

Robert shares how he went from working in the mental health industry to becoming a science teacher, then starting businesses while teaching—including an online music promotions portal and a web development company building websites for independent artists who didn’t have an online presence.

He explains that he wanted the freedom to control his schedule, but also had to learn business by seeking education through books, research, and relationships.

The conversation follows a failure arc where Robert describes moving and then losing his job ten days after arriving in Maryland, with three children under the age of five.

He shares how that moment made him feel like he let his family down, and how it pushed him into contracting, building an e-learning company, scaling too quickly, and experiencing hard lessons—including being sued—while continuing to evaluate what happened and apply what he learned.

Robert also breaks down confidence as “repetition with the expectation of success,” explains how to handle nerves before speaking, and why he tells people to stop being hypercritical about things others already accept.

He closes by defining Failure is Knowledge as failures being feedback—information you can capture and apply to your next steps.
