A layoff isn't just the loss of a paycheck; it's the loss of stability, identity, and routine. It's a deeply personal upheaval, one that triggers the same emotional responses as other major life transitions. In The Layoff Journey From Dismissal to Discovery: Navigating the Stages of Grief After a Job Loss, seasoned advertising and marketing executive Steve Jaffe-who has navigated the emotional and practical challenges of career transitions firsthand-guides readers through the seven stages of grief: denial, anger, bargaining, depression, acceptance, reconstruction, and renewal. This book offers a roadmap to navigate the emotional terrain of job loss with clarity and purpose.Drawing on personal stories, real-world examples, and actionable insights, Jaffe shares how the transformative power of intentionality can help readers reclaim control over their journey. Each chapter delves into a specific stage of grief, providing practical strategies for moving forward, whether it's learning how to process feelings of inadequacy, harnessing anger to fuel action, or discovering your "why" to shape a meaningful next chapter. Through relatable stories and helpful exercises, this book offers inspiration for reframing setbacks as opportunities for growth. Whether readers are seeking to rebuild their careers, pivot to a new path, or simply regain their footing, The Layoff Journey equips them with the tools to emerge stronger, more focused, and ready to thrive. With a blend of empathy, encouragement, and empowerment, The Layoff Journey transforms what feels like an ending into an invitation to craft a new beginning-one shaped by resilience, self-reflection, and discovery.
