Brenda was 57 years old when she was suddenly laid off from a major Philadelphia law firm in 2011 after 20 years. This is the story of how she learned the new terrain of seeking employment, repackaged herself and how you can too.
The first thing Brenda did was spend “a month on the couch.” She was shocked, devastated and describes it as “losing a chunk of identity.” She doubted her worth as a professional. This was not wasted time, but a necessary recharging period that pays off when you get ready to go for it. It may be important to give yourself permission to rest, think, discern and gear up.
