I Created This Because I Couldn’t Find It When I Needed It
After decades in a corporate position, I was laid off at 53. Just like that, poof - the title I'd built my identity around was gone. I knew I didn't want to go back to that life — but I had no idea what I wanted instead. I tried the follow your passion advice. The live your best life advice. None of it worked, because the real problem wasn't that I didn't have a plan. It was that I didn't know who I was without the role. That's why I wrote Finding Your Footing — not to give you a reinvention roadmap, but to help you find yourself again before you figure out what's next. No fluff. Just what actually worked for me.
