S4 Ep. 6 - Adjust: Pivoting for Change

Welcome to the True Talk Café Podcast S4 Ep. 6 - Adjust - Pt. 2 Pivoting for Change

Show agenda:

Today, we’re diving into the second part of our Acknowledge, Adjust, Align series—and this one’s all about the power of the pivot. We'll talk about how to shift direction when the plan hits a wall—or when we hit a wall.

Episode Recap:

• Recognizing the Need to Pivot 
  • Sometimes the hardest part isn’t making the pivot—it’s realizing that you need to. Staying too long in a comfort zone can cost you opportunities.
  • Questions:
    • Have you ever ignored a sign that it was time to pivot?
    • What are some internal cues that let you know a shift is needed 
• From Setback to Setup – Using Detours as Data
  • Let’s normalize setbacks. Every successful person has hit a wall—but the game-changer is how you respond. Pivots often start with a problem.
  • Questions:
    • Share a time when a setback forced you to take a different path—what happened?
    • What tools do you use to reflect and learn from challenges?
• Micro-Pivots – Small Shifts That Spark Big Results 
  • Not all pivots need to be dramatic. Sometimes it’s a tweak in strategy or mindset that unlocks new results.
  • Questions:
    • Have you made a small pivot that ended up having a big impact?
    • How do you evaluate whether a micro-pivot is working?
• Strategic Realignment – When Your Vision Evolves
  • Questions:
    • How has your personal or professional vision changed in the last year?
    • What’s something you had to walk away from to align with where you are now?
• We've provided some tips to help you while navigating a pivot.
