It's been exactly four weeks since I lost my job at 56. If you think you know what that feels like, I can tell you right now - you don't.
This is the raw, unfiltered story of the day I lost my job and the emotional rollercoaster that followed. No script, no polish - just the honest truth about what really happens when your career suddenly ends.
What you'll hear in this video: • The exact moment I found out (it wasn't what I expected) • What a PIP really means and the impossible choice I faced • The emotions that hit you that nobody talks about • Why I chose severance over fighting for my job • How I told my wife and her reaction • What the weeks after feel like (spoiler: I still wake up thinking I have to work)
This isn't about giving advice - it's about sharing the reality so you know what to expect if it happens to you.
