For anyone who's been fired as f*ck, this episode is for you! We are joined by Laura Brown and Kristina O'Neill, media legends and authors of All the Cool Girls Get Fired, to talk about the painful experience so many of us have experienced. They share their stories of becoming friends, working in media/fashion in NYC in the 2000s, ascending to editors in chief of InStyle and WSJ Magazine, and then being fired from their dream jobs. We discuss how to cope in the immediate aftermath, the importance of telling people and asking for help, and why employers are more empathetic than ever to terminations and resumé gaps. We also talk about networking and leveraging your contacts (even when you're employed), how to figure out your next steps, and why getting fired could end up being the best thing that ever happened to you. Before Laura and Kristina join us, we share our own stories of being fired and how it impacted our lives then and now. Enjoy!
