ASK A CAREER COACH: How Do I Bounce Back?

Have you ever felt like your career story hit a dead end?

One moment, everything is falling into place, and the next, it’s all unraveling. Maybe it’s a job you didn’t get, a project that failed, or a layoff you didn’t see coming. That sinking feeling can be overwhelming—and the story you tell yourself in those moments can either hold you back or move you forward.

When we face setbacks, our brains naturally create stories to make sense of them.

But those stories aren’t always kind. “I failed.” “I’m not good enough.” “This is the end.” These thoughts feel true, but they aren’t the full picture.

What if you could rewrite the story? What if this wasn’t the end, but just one chapter in a bigger narrative about resilience and growth?

Rewriting your story doesn’t mean ignoring the pain—it means reframing the way you see it. Acknowledge the setback, seek connection, and challenge the negative self-talk that says you’re not enough.

Because setbacks don’t define you. How you choose to move forward does.
