Fresh Take: Amy Shoenthal on "The Setback Cycle"

What Fresh Hell: Laughing in the Face of Motherhood | Parenting Tips From Funny Moms

If setbacks are so common, especially in the trenches of motherhood, how can we learn useful lessons from them? Amy Shoenthal, author of the new book THE SETBACK CYCLE, offers a framework for navigating setbacks and becoming stronger because of them.

Amy Shoenthal is a journalist, marketing consultant and a contributor to Forbes Women and Harvard Business Review.

Shoenthal and Margaret discuss:

• Why our brains learn more from setbacks than successes and why people who have setbacks are better at problem solving
• Shoenthal's four-phase framework for navigating setbacks
• The "motherhood penalty" that women in the workforce experience
