What is Begendings and why does it exist? Well, nothing can begin with an ending and nothing can end without a beginning. It's the proverbial which comes first--the chicken or the egg. In this episode, I discuss my and others' job losses. This results in an announcement of an event I'm hosting, which is a one-woman commemoration to all those who have lost jobs. On Saturday, December 12, at 6 p.m., I will raise a toast to all of us who lost jobs due to Covid or other reasons, especially those who are left reeling and wondering if what they did ever mattered. I will toast to your passion, your heart, your steadfast nature of showing up every day for your work. I will commemorate the end of this part of your life with you as this difficult year begins its end. If you would like to share your first name, location, and field of work, please email me at [email protected]. I will announce you on next week's podcast as one of the many who are honoring a goodbye to careers and jobs.
Our lives are full of begendings, so let's talk about them all because they all matter.
