What if the setback you’re cursing right now is the exact detour you needed? In this episode of Architecting, I flip the script on failure. When the universe pulls the rug out, it’s not rejection—it’s redirection. Learn how to take the opportunity to rebrand, define success on your own terms, and stop tolerating what never served you. This is your permission slip to rethink what you’ve been settling for and reclaim your career as something that actually fits.
- What you thought you wanted might not be aligned with your actually purpose, which may be what's blocking you from making the moves that would bring it in. Look for the "something better."
- Sometimes we need the experience of what we don't like or want to better understand what we do.
- Look for hidden takeaways from setbacks such as soft skills gained, or experience in areas that might seem like they are tangential to your main job. Look retrospectively for how these things differentiate you in a way that showcases your authentic self.
- Your next opportunity shouldn’t be a “bounce back” but a bold pivot forward
