Hard wired human behaviours meets serendipity when David Robertson joins the show. David shares the insights of an Executive Coach, serial entrepreneur, business owner and well travelled family man.

#64 How to recover from a bad situation in 12 hours
At some stage you're going to find yourself in a dark situation. It'll feel like you simply can't get anything right or that it'll be like that forever. The truth is something different. You can turn a situation around, often with the power of hindsight and humility. Hindsight because it's hard to think in the moment, and humility because if you're prepared to accept you don't know everything, or you can give a heartfelt apology, then a better future is on the way.
