Laid Off, But Not Lost

I know how it feels.
You give everything to a job — loyalty, late nights, a piece of your identity —
and one day, it’s just… over.

The calls stop.
The access is gone.
And suddenly, you’re sitting in silence, wondering what the hell just happened.

I’ve been there.
Laid off.
Blindsided.
Watching teammates tear up, some leave without a word, and others pretend it’s fine.

And in all of it — no one hands you a plan.

So I made one.

📘 What this is:

Laid Off, But Not Lost is a real-world survival guide — built from personal experience and designed to walk with you through the mess, not just past it.

Not corporate fluff.
Not cold steps.
Not a hustle script.

Just calm, clear, honest help.

🛠️ Inside, you’ll get:

✅ An Immediate Action Plan — what to do in the first 72 hours
✅ A budget + expense tracker — to breathe, not panic
✅ A resume & LinkedIn refresh checklist — no more guessing
✅ Templates for reflection, clarity, and confidence
✅ A real strategy for job-hunting that won’t burn you out
✅ And something most guides ignore: emotional recovery

🎯 This is for you if:

• You just got laid off — or know it’s coming
• You feel lost, angry, embarrassed, numb — or all of the above
• You want to move forward, but don’t know how
• You need real steps — without the overwhelm

I didn’t write this because I had answers.
I wrote it because I needed one.
