Hi, is in English a collocation or proverb meaning something like "You are not just the one who failed but also the one who made it right again"? Can it be expressed in another (more compact) way? Thanks!

Perhaps something like: You were the problem that became the solution. You were the lemon who made the lemonade. You redeemed yourself by making it right.
