EP.8: Rebuilding After a Layoff
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Marketing leader and CliftonStrengths Coach Helane Cohen joins Coach Karol to unpack the emotional and practical realities of today’s layoff landscape after her own 14-year career at Microsoft.
Learn how to let go of outdated beliefs about job security, navigate ageism, and separate your personal value from your corporate title. Helane also shares actionable strategies for standing out in a crowded job market—including how to use a Personal Walking Deck to connect with hiring managers and why you should build a side hustle before you need one.
If you’re navigating uncertainty or preparing for your next chapter, this episode offers a roadmap for rebuilding your confidence and career.
