135: Using Your Resilience and Persistence to Forge Your Path with Tayo Rockson

Is your current job situation aligned with your career and life goals? Or is it starting to feel like a detour from the path you envision for yourself?

It’s not too late to get back on track with your journey to your dream career. Remember every experience is a learning one and your strengths develop from your experiences.

Just ask our guest, Tayo Rockson, how his life’s experiences- from childhood through college and to being rejected from over 85 jobs, have given him a strong set of unique strengths and skills that he has adapted and mastered over time.

Listen as he shares his story of how he literally and figuratively veered off the road to what he is meant to be doing with his life and career, and how he got back on track to continue pushing to stay true to his process to reach his goals.
