People that you believe are going to support you are not going to support you. Losing your job isn't a reflection of who you are as a person or how your skill set is. Your purpose doesn't change, it just comes packaged differently. Self-trust is the most important thing. It's okay to have a bunch of different emotions. Your first clients are not going to be friends and family. Change management is also grief management. You can still have the same skills after losing a job. Your mission stays the same, regardless of your job situation. 📖 Chapters 00:00 Introduction to Leadership Beyond the Title 02:55 Navigating Job Loss and Emotional Responses 09:32 Five Lessons Learned from Job Loss 29:07 Embracing Change and Self-Trust   Where to Find TaSheena Sign up for "A Seat At The Table," my Weekly Newsletter that empowers Women Of Color to build their own seats at the table.
