S1 E42: My First Words After I Lost My Job


Listen Later

"Honey, we're going to have to sell the house."  Those were the first words I used to tell my wife I'd just been fired from my career of 18 years.  The only career I'd known since college came crashing down a few days after my 40th birthday.  

The next few weeks and the first six months set me on an entrepreneurial path that I could have never imagined in my wildest dreams.  Becoming the founder of a technology company that revolutionized an industry.

Today's episode focuses on the immediate aftermath of losing my career.  20 years ago in March.  That time reminds me a great deal of the rollercoaster of emotions many of us are going through now during this season of PAUSE in our lives.  

It was a time when I drew resourcefulness from my prior experiences, found my passion and benefitted from God's timing.
