You didn’t plan to leave. You planned to stay. Maybe you were aiming for one more promotion or just a chance to build something solid again.
But then you get called into a meeting with your manager and HR. “It’s not personal,” they say. The layoff hits you hard.
The ladder didn’t break. It disappeared. And now you’re staring at the space where it used to be, wondering what to do now that there's nothing to climb. You quickly decide that the job was a failure. That YOU are a failure.
Not so fast, pal. Let’s talk about what happens when you go out on a low note with an abrupt exit. That blank space can be scary, but it also holds the possibility for something beautiful.
