Understanding layoffs
Being laid off can shake your confidence, create uncertainty, and trigger feelings of rejection or loss of identity. The emotional toll often goes unspoken, leaving people to cope in isolation. Peer support offers a compassionate community for those experiencing this life change. In peer sessions, you can share the emotional impact, talk through practical challenges, and receive perspective from others who’ve been there. It’s a chance to process your experience, gain clarity, and find encouragement for what’s next. You don’t have to face this transition alone.
