#130 Thanking The Comma for What Came Next with Peter Moore

About this episode

Peter Moore shares his journey of self-discovery and inspiration after being laid off, emphasizing the importance of viewing life changes as opportunities rather than setbacks.

In this episode, we talk to Peter Moore. He describes himself as an enthusiastic adventurer with a sense of humor. Peter lives in the United States. Peter tells us about sitting on a comma after being laid off from an important job role. Identifying so much of his career with his affiliations and access, Peter felt cut off from not only his work, but his colleagues and work friends and more. While sitting on the comma, he experimented with new directions until the comma brought him the inspiration he craved. Tune in to hear what Peter means when he says “it’s a comma, not a cliff”.
