Layoffs | The Hardest Thing No One Tells You About
Let’s be honest — the call hits harder than you think it will.
One moment, you’re leading teams and driving outcomes.
The next, your screen goes blank, and so does your sense of identity.
But here’s the truth no one tells you: the hardest part of a layoff isn’t the job loss.
It’s the identity freefall that follows.
And if you don’t pause long enough to process it, you’ll start reacting — applying, rewriting résumés, chasing anything that feels like control — instead of rebuilding with purpose.
This solo episode is about what happens after the call.
The silence. The confusion.
And the quiet chance to begin again — on your own terms.
In this episode, you’ll hear:
The Mic Drop
This isn’t the end.
It’s a reset.
And what you rebuild from here will be stronger — because it’ll be built on purpose.
