Navigating Life's Setbacks: Insights from "The Setback Cycle" with Amy Shoenthal

Modern Mom Probs

As a journalist, author, and marketing executive, Amy brings to the table her profound understanding of life's challenges, particularly through the lens of her new book, "The Setback Cycle: How Defining Moments Can Move Us Forward." In this conversation, Tara and Amy uncover the wisdom that can help us all move through life's inevitable setbacks with resilience and grace.

Amy illuminates the four critical phases of the setback cycle: establish, embrace, explore, and emerge. She stresses the importance of recognizing when we're experiencing a setback and the power of introspection to unearth the underlying reasons. It's not just about acknowledging the setback; it's about fully embracing it, which sets the stage for exploration and, ultimately, emergence.

Amy's insights are a reminder that setbacks are not the end but rather a pivotal point that can propel us forward—if we approach them with intentionality. True growth comes from working through the entire cycle, and Amy's book provides the tools to do just that.
