About this video
Erin Willett's advice to her twenty something self: "There are going to be part of this life that suck, and parts that you’re going to fail at. But, you have to have to be grateful for them because you’re going to learn something from them. When I was that age, I would let things that I didn’t get right the first time around break me or discourage me, so much so that it would prevent me from ever trying that thing again. But I would tell myself to just keep pushing through those struggles and know that there are still lessons to be learned and positives that come from those moments. Be grateful for everything, even the sucky parts." Erin Willett is a singer and songwriter who appeared on NBC’s The Voice in 2012 where she was a semi-finalist on Team Blake. Most recently Erin appeared on The Biggest Loser where she lost an incredible 87 pounds and placed fifth.
