This is so good and really made me laugh because I also used to give myself deadlines to "get over" the end of a relationship. Can't wait to read more.

Thanks for reading, Emily! Deadlines to "get over" things is always hilarious in retrospect.

This is so on point. However, different job losses hit differently. I lost my favorite job when I was in my 30s and it took a long time to get over it. I was just laid off (thanks, AI!) in February and have not yet found a job. I no longer worry about the "having purpose" part - now it's more about the paycheck (but also, I started graduate school a year before I was laid off, to become a therapist, unbeknownst to my employer). I'm a new follower, thanks for doing what you do.

Agree completely! I was laid off in my late 20's and I was able to bounce back right away. I was a different age, with different needs, in a different world. I'm sorry to hear about your recent layoff but it sounds like you have a clear path ahead. Thanks for reading!

you get excited about life- whether it’s meeting new people, applying for a new job, going out on your own and build your own company…

at least, that is how I found my energy again and passion for life.
