    I lost my job in 2019 too when I was 25. Lucky I trained us a plumber. I opened a plumbing company. And started farming. I don't regret

    I lost my job in 2020, and for a moment, I thought I was gonna die. 3 years later, I can say that job loss was a need because it woke up, and since then, I have become more aggressive. I learned to put myself out there and swim in the ocean even if I couldn't swim.

    I had put my job first , imagine even coming in at 6:30 and leaving at 8:00pm yet no one even asked me to do it …I lost the job in December 2022 with all the hard work
    I also couldn’t leave the house for like a month. I enrolled for an advanced learning program in my area of expertise . I volunteered to help a director who had a startup unfortunately he didn’t get back to me, applied for jobs … I either got no response or regret ..it was tough few weeks but God renewed my strength and restored me 😅

    Hi Coach Susan. A very educative and encouraging channel. I was in Banking in fact a Branch and lost my job in 2019. I was clueless when I ventured out and went about losing money in badly thought-out businesses. I applied for jobs, that was before covid and suffered rejection in about the three interviews I participated in. This experience coupled with the manner my exit from the bank was handled, led to my sinking into depression. I thank God, I have traveled the road to recovery and have started a program to do financial education for clients. Can you really assist me to figure out how to effectively create content and package pieces of training? thank you for the work you are doing.

    I can also say incorporating talents and gifts to make a living comes in handy in tough times... personally I have been surviving with selling crocheting and actually I have inspired some people thus opened a channel to upload free tutorials 😍

    It's a farmiliar "storyline" for many young Kenyans today; experienced it too but I had just quit on my own, without a plan. Then later figured out.

    Totally agree about pivoting!!! I didn't lose my job though, I made the decision to quit. I did electrical engineering (graduated in 2016), pivoted into virtual assistance in 2017, and now do podcast management and coaching. I coach aspiring women virtual assistants. Quitting employment was one of the best decisions I ever made.

    You are a gem. I lost my job at 25 and was thinking of doing online writing but the challenge by then was that I didnt have a laptop. In the midst of sourcing for a laptop and applying for other jobs, I got another job offer first before the laptop and so I took the job. Let me tell you I prioritized buying myself a laptop just in case I😂. I haven’t used it for online writing since I still have a job but I know at least I won’t start from zero like last time when I didn’t have a laptop. And for sure, you never die from job loss. I thought I’d die. Yes it’s very depressing but in the end, it all works out according to God’s plan

    I once lost a job, hustled for 2 years, finally got my foot. I finally got a job, I worked on a my skills, it has made a career and side incomes. Your own skills are what matters, that you can earn on your own. Employers value what you bring into their credit not you.
