Ep. 24 Turning a Layoff into a Launchpad and The Advantage of a Supportive Network

It’s so easy to let your identity to get lost your career. And
also dangerous. Brandon Clements, Principal at FQF Advisors,
joined me today and discussed how he moved forward from a lay
off.  And that afternoon in his car while he was hiding from
his family so they didn’t see him at his lowest, this is when he
got a call from someone in his network offering help, coaching,
and a solution.


Brandon explained how he shifted his thinking to this actually
being an opportunity. Brandon has always been a great connector
of people because he connects for the sake of being able to bring
value to them in the future. He does not network in a
transactional way as what’s in it for him. And this community of
people was Brandon’s saving grace in this period of his life.
Don’t underestimate the power of your network!
