Chapter Three-Turning of Tables Part Two

Chapter Three-Turning of Tables Part Two

Each day is a blessing worth celebrating… even the difficult ones. In this episode, I reflect on life after redundancy, the psychological impact it has on employees, and how leaders should navigate these moments with empathy and accountability. From finding peace in new spaces, to earning my Senior HR certification on the first attempt, this chapter is about resilience, perspective, and redirection. Guided by the wisdom of Desiderata , I share lessons for both employees and leaders facing change.

Chapter 2- Turning of Tables Part 1

In this deeply personal episode, I open up about my journey through redundancy, not just as a professional experience, but as an emotional and psychological turning point. Job loss is often discussed in operational terms: restructuring, realignment, business needs. But rarely do we explore what it does to the person. The guilt. The grief. The questioning. The silent impact on identity. I reflect on how redundancy forced me to confront uncomfortable emotions, reframe rejection as redirection, and discover the strength I didn’t know I had. What initially felt like loss became clarity. What felt like failure became fuel. This conversation is not just about career transition; it’s about resilience, empathy, and the human side of leadership. It’s about how organisations can approach change with compassion, and how individuals can move forward with courage. If you’ve ever faced redundancy, career uncertainty, or unexpected change, this episode is for you. Because sometimes what feels like an ending is actually an alignment.

Chapter One- Finding My Voice...
