When the Detour Becomes the Shortcut

For when you think you're doing everything right and you're still veering off course.
A personal journey — literally — kayaking off Cape Cod, where a perfect metaphor for business, life, and self-sabotage unfolds. Discover how tides, winds, and waves aren’t the only forces pulling you off track. Sometimes, it’s your own blind spots.
If you’re stuck in cycles of frustration, false assumptions, or unproductive hard work, this story-packed episode will give you a fresh perspective on how to plan, launch, and adjust course in your life and business.
