Our life path rarely follows a straight line, and detours can leave us feeling isolated and embarrassed, especially in the workplace. If your life has taken an unexpected turn, you may not know how to communicate that to the people you work with. In many jobs, the pressure to be fully present and capable can make it feel risky to admit when you’re struggling.   Today, hosts Dr. J.J. Peterson and April Sunshine Hawkins introduce a new series of "Deep Dive" episodes releasing Thursdays throughout this first quarter. These short episodes provide action steps and a more in-depth exploration of topics from the week’s prior episode. In this deep dive, J.J. and April open up about how they embrace setbacks in life and in the workplace, as discussed in their conversation with Ashley Menzies Babatunde in Episode #133. Listen in and learn how you can apply these powerful perspective shifts to your personal and professional life.   --   CLARIFY YOUR MARKETING HEADING INTO THE 2024 AND CREATE YOUR FREE BRANDSCRIPT: Storybrand.com/sb7   TURN YOUR WEBSITE INTO A SALES MACHINE WITH THE ULTIMATE WEBSITE TEMPLATE: BusinessMadeSimple.com/Website   HIRE A STORYBRAND CERTIFIED GUIDE TO HELP CREATE THE MARKETING AND MESSAGING YOUR BUSINESS NEEDS TO GROW: MarketingMadeSimple.com   HELP US DELIVER EVEN MORE VALUE EACH WEEK BY COMPLETING OUR HERO MAKER SURVEY: StoryBrand.com/Survey   STORYBRAND INSTAGRAM: instagram.com/StoryBrand
