Kimya Imani Jackson, PhD, joins Belinda and Shelby to discuss the emotional impact of professional grief. Amid the government shutdown and massive layoffs, it can feel impossible to move forward. How do you begin to build a new career when you're feeling a profound sense of loss? 

Kimya shares how she has found the motivation to pivot and reinvent herself throughout her storied career. And she provides science-backed strategies for processing professional loss and professional grief while simultaneously opening the door to new possibilities. 

This conversation can help you if you’re experiencing professional loss, corporate grief, and a sense of overwhelm after sudden career-ending changes. 

Also in this video:

• Practices that include the burden tree, daydreaming, and dream journals
• Holistic approaches to calm hyper-activated nervous systems
• How professional grief affects not just people who are leaving, but also those left behind
• Cultivating community through hobbies and maintaining contact with friends and loved ones
