Career Goals (Currently Loading...) | Layoff Fest Ep. 2 (w/ Will Murphy)

Getting laid off doesn't come with a clear next step. There's no roadmap, no checklist, just a lot of uncertainty and a question you can't stop asking yourself: what now? In Episode 2 of Layoff Fest, Brandon and Ezra sit down with Will Murphy to talk about what it actually feels like to be in that in-between space. Not the polished LinkedIn version. The real version. Will opens up about navigating unemployment, the emotional weight of job searching, and the strange limbo of not knowing what comes next. It's a conversation about finding your goal, momentum, and trying to stay grounded when your sense of direction disappears. But it's also about what can come out of that uncertainty. The small mindset shifts, the moments of clarity, and the realization that feeling lost might actually be part of the process, not a failure of it. This isn't a story about having it all figured out. It's about being in the middle of it, and continuing anyway. If you've ever felt stuck, unsure, or like you're falling behind, this episode will probably feel very familiar.
