She emphasizes the importance of pausing to process feelings, reshaping one's narrative, reconnecting with networks, and creating a structured bounce back plan. The conversation is a powerful reminder that layoffs can serve as pivotal moments for personal growth and new opportunities.   💎 Gems It's normal to feel shocked and angry after a layoff. Layoffs are about systems, not personal worth. You can build a new narrative around your layoff. Practice your story out loud to shape perceptions. Reconnect with your network before applying for jobs. People hire who they trust, so build connections. Create a structured 30-day bounce back plan. Research potential employers before applying. A layoff is a mini disruption, not a dead end. You are still capable and valuable after a layoff.   📖 Chapters 00:00 Navigating Layoffs: A Personal Journey 02:52 Reclaiming Your Power After a Layoff 06:07 Building Your Bounce Back Plan   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.
