Ever take a career detour that seemed bad at first but led you to a better place? When I was a Director in corporate, I jumped into a role that I immediately knew was a bad fit. My boss hated me and screamed at me daily. But she agreed to a part-time role so I could start my business. I meant for the arrangement to be 6 months. It stretched into 2.5 years. I was underutilized, marginalized, and my confidence took a hit. But it gave me the runway to start my business (along with daily reminders that staying in corporate was not the right road for me.)
