In this Hot Seat session, long-time community member Sam Lavin opens up about an unexpected and deeply challenging moment in her career: being fired for the first time. The experience shook her confidence and left her scrambling to address the immediate financial strain. Feeling scattered and unsure of her next steps, Sam and I worked together to untangle her priorities.

We explored practical strategies to help her focus on what’s most urgent while still carving out time for her long-term goals. Along the way, we discussed how to channel the anger and frustration of this setback into productive actions that move her forward.

I highly encourage you to listen to our conversation about resilience, clarity, and finding balance during times of uncertainty.
