Ask Brian #4 - I've Realised My Ladder Is Against The Wrong Wall In My Career But Don't Know Where To Start?

Are you in the wrong job but unsure what comes next? In Ask Brian Episode 4, Brian answers a listener who realises their "ladder is against the wrong wall" and wants to know where to start. He shares why sunk cost keeps people in unfulfilling work, what he learned leaving teaching for personal training, and why a setback in business did not mean he was bad at fitness. Brian also offers questions to help you find a direction, a timeline that fits your circumstances, and the next rung to take without putting pressure on yourself to change everything today.
