Sometimes, leaving your hometown is the best decision to broaden your horizons and discover what you truly want in your career. 🌍 I took the leap, and it completely reshaped my perspective—and I’ve never looked back. 🚪✨ Have you ever left your hometown for career opportunities? Share your experience below, or let’s chat about what’s next for you! 💬 #careergrowth #careeradvancement #careerpath #newbeginnings #careerchange #leavinghome

I got laid off from my job just over 1 month ago now, and my #LayOffs journey has had a boat load of privilege attached to it. I’m in a partnered relationship that is legally recognized (also known as marriage), which affords me a level of legal protection and security. My husband is gainfully employed, and because we are married/a legally recognized couple, I can be claimed as a family member on his medical benefits. So, one less thing to worry about. Speaking of health, I have plenty of it. Neither my body nor my mind require expensive medication in order to function meaningfully. I still have an HSA, which allows me to continue to afford my bi-weekly therapy sessions so I can manage my mental health effectively and process all the tough, I-just-got-laid-off feelings with my amazing counselor. We have enough in our savings account to still afford daycare, so that I can spend the workday searching for full-time jobs and completing projects for Accessible Sexual Health, LLC. I have two master’s degrees. I have a fantastic support system of friends and family. I live in a safe neighborhood, in a safe home, and own a reliable vehicle. Now imagine suddenly losing your job, your sole source of income, and experiencing any of the following: - No affordable health insurance - No affordable or reliable daycare - A disability that requires expensive medication or therapy to meaningfully function - Being the single or sole income earner of your household - Lacking the education or certifications to find gainful employment - Being 1 month away from being evicted - Having no reliable transportation - Being socially isolated This isn’t a brag or flex post. This is simply the truth of the matter. In a culture with little to no social safety net, I am amazingly blessed with an array of resources that many, many, many others simply do not have. So, to my fellow #OpenToWork crowd, if you are experiencing any of these barriers, it is NOT your fault. We simply need more resources to ensure that human beings can safely exist outside the context of a job. And, I believe we need better ways to support job seekers while they are in this transition.

Building a strong support system is key to success, both professionally and personally. At work, we rely on paid staff to help us achieve our goals. Why shouldn't we do the same at home? Yes, hiring household help like a nanny or cook may seem like a significant expense, but it's an investment in our future. By freeing up time and energy, we can focus on advancing our careers and pursuing our passions. In the long run, the growth in our career will far outweigh the initial costs. Moreover, becoming a job creator within our own homes is a powerful way to make an impact. By providing employment opportunities, we not only support our families but also contribute to the larger economy. So let go of the guilt and embrace the idea of hiring help at home. It's not just about convenience—it's about investing in our success and well-being. Here's to building strong support systems and thriving both professionally and personally! #SupportSystem #CareerInvestment #JobCreation

Work is an essential part of life: It provides the means to live, challenges us to develop and use new skills, and in some roles, may even give us the chance to make a difference in the world. But for many, work has usurped the role of community entirely. Co-workers have replaced their neighbors; company mission statements have become their creed. This is a reminder to maintain a separate life. Co-workers aren't family; the company values aren't necessarily your personal values. Here is how to maintain a healthy sense of community and purpose: ⚫ Make time for your family and know what is going on in their lives ⚫ Get to know who your neighbors are and develop good relationships with them ⚫ Volunteer in your community and support causes that are important to you personally ⚫ Ponder the deeper questions and seek spiritual answers to them - this may or may not include religion Work is important, but, it is ultimately a transactional relationship. Invest in your career while also investing in the relationships that will outlast however long you are with your current job. #mentalhealth #jobsearch #layoffs #family #worklifebalance #winterpark #orlando #dontlivetowork #worktolive
