Life comes in seasons which could include giving you a beautiful detour. That’s what I took away from this conversation with Ringmaster Johnathan Lee Iverson. In this episode we discuss letting your tribe come to you, embracing change in your career, and that if you understand that life comes in seasons, that understanding may just help you not to panic pivot.
