Janelle Brownis throwing in the towel on her trailer home — for now.
On Sunday, theSister Wivesstar shared a videoto Instagramtelling her followers about her “first reaction” being “failure” when it came to using her trailer this year.
“My first reaction is that this has been a failure,” Brown admits, explaining that she hasn’t spent a lot of time living in the trailer this summer.
“I just really really overestimated how much free time I was going to have and be able to come up here,” theSister Wivesstar explained.
But she’s not getting down on herself about the decision.
“We always want to beat ourselves up for things that we try and they don’t work,” she says. “We feel like, ‘Oh, I should have been smarter,’ but hindsight’s 20/20 right?” Brown then admits that she has “learned a lot.”
“I proved to myself that I could do this,” she says, before adding that “there was probably a lot of things I’ve learned, or confidence I’ve gained, even though I hardly used this trailer at all this summer.”
Brown tries to find a lesson in the situation, saying she needs to “allow grace for when you have something that goes cuckoo.”
She concludes that “failing forward is still motion,” before signing off with a grin.

Brown kicked off her summer in the RV in May, and foreshadowed her lack of free time to use the mobile living space.
“The trailer is ready to go for the summer!” theSister Wivesstar wrote inan Instagram post, adding “It took a few weeks. Some of it was finding the time to break away and drive up there.
“Once I hit the road I’m ALWAYS glad I did,” she continued. “Some of it is the self doubt that still creeps in and tells me I’m crazy for breaking out of my routine and trying something really outside my box.”
