Summary: So many times I've changed the direction of my life by changing my job. Sometimes because I chose to leave the position, sometimes because the position was dissolved by company changes... No matter how you leave or lose a job the transition to new employment can be rocky and pose resilience challenges. More and more we are hearing of people losing their jobs by no fault of their own. Suddenly without income, many times people find themselves in such a difficult situation with the inability to know how to move forward. Questions arise such as ‘How do I tell my family’ to ‘Do I need to develop a personal brand’ to ‘Will I ever find a job?’ With so much uncertainty and so many questions, individuals need to find answers as quickly as possible. And, that is what The Wall Street Coach, Kim Ann Curtin, joined me to discuss: tips, ideas and suggestions for how to rebound after losing your job.
