Podcasts about job loss

It's very easy to associate your job with your own sense of self. So it makes that it can be traumatic to be one of the scores of people being laid off in today's turbulent economy. We are joined by the New York Times' mental health reporter, Christina Caron, who has been looking at the effect of unemployment - especially long-term unemployment - on mental health. It can lead to more severe depression, anxiety, marital problems, and substance use. She also has some great tips on what you can do for your mental health if you're in that situation.Then we go to Burbank to talk with Terri Riviera who runs the Horror Community Foundation there. She organizes mental health support groups, led by a licensed therapist, that use horror movies to help people deal with depression, anxiety, and other mental problems. It sounds wild but the groups are very popular, well-attended, and backed up by science. Could it help you to watch The Shining in the company of friendly people and a therapist?

Yet again, Washington's Democratic Socialist representative Sean Scott wants to tax businesses into oblivion with a statewide payroll tax—because apparently $9.4 billion in new taxes this year wasn't enough. While moderate Bellevue Mayor Lynn Robinson warns this will be "detrimental to everybody," Scott thinks he can squeeze $3 billion more from the corporations that actually fund everything in this state. What could go wrong?We break down how Seattle's payroll tax already pushed 10,000 jobs to Bellevue, where businesses can operate without getting fleeced at every turn. Meanwhile, Scott—a proud member of Democratic Socialists of America—argues we need to "spread the wealth around" while completely ignoring that these same businesses provide the tax base that funds his beloved social programs. Meta just declined to expand in Bellevue this week. Coincidence?Is anyone surprised that socialism's track record of spectacular failure doesn't deter these ideologues? How long before Washington becomes California 2.0 with a taxpayer exodus every 30 minutes? Subscribe and hit the bell—because this trainwreck is just getting started.

In this episode, we explore the quote, “People who live for one thing never seem to age.” What does it mean to have an anchor — a devotion that gives life direction and resilience? We'll look at how finding your “one thing” can protect your mental health, help you recover from chaos, and remind you why you're still here.Talking Points:What the quote “People who live for one thing never seem to age” really meansThe difference between youthfulness and timelessnessHow devotion — not distraction — keeps us steadySigns you're not living for your one thingSimple ways to identify your anchor or purposeWhy having a “one thing” can make life feel worth staying for

The sluggish employment landscape explains why workers are now “job hugging,” rather than job hopping. The challenge is to fight the urge to hunker down and instead try to be proactive and focus on what you can control. That means raise your hand for any new opportunity at your company, update your LinkedIn profile/fire up your network, and consider pursuing any side hustle that might help your cash flow and spark creativity. For those who have been unlucky enough to lose a job, know that the loss is not just financial. I reached out to business Psychologist and Executive Coach ⁠⁠Dr. Sharon Melnick, PhD⁠⁠, after talking to a variety of folks who were let go recently. The author of two best-selling books, ⁠⁠In Your Power⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠Success Under Stress⁠⁠, Sharon joins us today to discuss the various stages of job loss. Have a money question?

Finding Peace in Overwhelm: A Christian Guide to Anxiety, Burnout, and Trusting God Through Hard Seasons (Faith-Based Encouragement, Holistic Healing, Christian Mental Health) Introduction: What You'll Learn in This Episode If you've been feeling anxious, numb, exhausted, or spiritually drained, this episode is for you. We dive deep into Christian mental health, holistic healing, and what it really looks like to trust God when life feels heavy. You'll learn: Why seasons of overwhelm are normal — and biblical The identity trap many Christian women fall into What Scripture teaches about endurance, grief, and human weakness How Jesus handled anxiety, agony, and the weight of His calling This episode is especially for Christian women who feel overextended, weary, or like they're “not enough” — moms, high achievers, and women navigating transitions, burnout, or identity struggles. Episode Overview In this vulnerable conversation, we explore Scripture, real-life hardship, emotional healing, and how God strengthens us through every season — even when we feel like we're drowning. From James 1 to Ecclesiastes 3 to Jesus sweating drops of blood in Luke 22, this episode gives a deeply honest look at pain, perseverance, and faith. ⏱️ Time-Stamped Highlights 00:00 — A Prayer for Thanksgiving Week & A Needed Reset A heartfelt encouragement for the holiday season plus an invitation to reset your energy through a faith-rooted workshop. 00:53 — Why James 1:2–4 Feels So Hard (But Necessary) The tension between hating trials yet wanting the maturity they produce. 01:23 — Generational Strength & Why We Can't Shield Ourselves From Hardship Reflecting on family, resilience, and how God grows us through challenges. 02:22 — Soul Care Class: When God Brings Hidden Things to the Surface A behind-the-scenes look at how spiritual growth often exposes old wounds. 03:20 — Job Loss, Homeschooling, and God's Provision The rollercoaster journey of jobs, layoffs, and trusting God for timing and flexibility. 04:19 — A “Perfect” Job That Turned Into Overwhelm When work-from-home turns into work-all-the-time. 04:43 — Humiliation, Pressure, and Feeling “Not Enough” A moment that exposed deep identity struggles. 05:40 — The False Identity of Performance How tying your worth to productivity quietly destroys your peace. 07:38 — When Scripture and Self-Care Don't Lift You Out of the Funk Honest reflections on depression, anxiety, numbness, and spiritual dryness. 08:36 — The Mask People Wear at Church & Why You're Not Alone The pressure to appear okay when you're not. 09:36 — “Just Keep Showing Up”: Encouragement for Moms and the Weary The small but powerful act of continuing to show up every day. 10:06 — Sleepless in Seattle, Tom Hanks, and the Power of Just Breathing A surprising emotional parallel to grief and perseverance. 11:03 — Ecclesiastes 3: There Is a Season for Everything Why your pain is temporary and purposeful. 12:32 — Jesus in Gethsemane: The Ultimate Example of Agony and Surrender The humanity and anguish of Christ — and why it matters for your suffering. 14:55 — Your Pain is Seen, Your Season Will Not Last Forever Final encouragement: Jesus understands your pain, and this will pass. Key Takeaways 1. Hard seasons are part of spiritual growth. God uses trials to strengthen us, deepen endurance, and strip away false identities. 2. Your worth is not tied to productivity or performance. Christian women often carry silent pressure to “hold everything together,” but Scripture gives you permission to rest and be human. 3. Emotional burnout is not a sign of failure. Feeling numb, anxious, or overwhelmed isn't a spiritual weakness — it's a sign you're carrying too much alone. 4. Even Jesus felt agony so intense He sweat “like drops of blood.” Your emotional and physical symptoms of stress are not a shock to Him. He understands the full weight of human suffering. 5. Seasons of pain don't last forever. Ecclesiastes reminds us that life moves in God-ordained rhythms. Your current season is temporary. 6. Just keep showing up. One breath at a time. One day at a time. Faithfulness is less about perfection and more about returning to Jesus again and again. Scriptures Mentioned James 1:2–4 — steadfastness through trials Ecclesiastes 3 — seasons of life Luke 22:39–44 — Jesus in Gethsemane, sweating like drops of blood Call to Action: Reset Your Energy With God at the Center If you're feeling depleted, overwhelmed, or spiritually dry, now is the time to reset with Jesus — not January 1st. ✨ Grab the “Reset Your Energy” Workshop A gentle, faith-rooted, 50-minute experience to help you breathe again, calm your nervous system, refresh your spirit, and restore peace.

In this Formation Conversation, Steve shares how God has been shaping him through seasons of transition, quiet practices, and a deeper awareness of God's presence in his everyday life. Steve opens up about how God used trials such as job loss, uncertainty, and caring for loved ones to form him into someone who trusts more fully and fears less often. Through simple rhythms like morning Scripture, intentional quiet, listening, and unhurried presence, God has softened his pace and strengthened his confidence in Him. These daily rhythms have helped Steve learn how to hear God's voice more clearly. He also tells the incredible story of God's healing in his family. This moment reshaped his understanding of God's nearness and power. Today, Steve is learning what it means to show up for people with no agenda. He seeks to be present, compassionate, and curious. His journey reminds us that God forms us slowly and consistently. Often this happens through ordinary moments we are tempted to rush past. Steve continues to lean into community, Scripture, and the daily practice of being with Jesus. His story invites all of us, no matter our age or season of life, to slow down, listen, and trust that God is forming us even when we do not see it yet. ⸻ Chapters 00:00 Introduction 01:00 Rapid Fire Questions 03:00 What Steve Is Learning Right Now 07:00 Listening as a Spiritual Practice 10:00 Community With No Agenda 12:30 Daily Rhythms of Presence 15:00 Becoming Aware of God in Ordinary Life 18:00 Job Loss, Trials, and Trusting God 23:00 Quiet, Rest, and an Unhurried Soul 27:00 Fear, Worry, and Spiritual Battle 31:00 The Incredible Story of Steve's Mom 36:00 Living With Confidence in God 42:00 Encouragement for Your Own Journey 45:00 Closing Thoughts ⸻ This story is part of White Oak's Formation Journey.

There was once a time, when data science was still in its infancy, when demonstrating any attempt to learn Python or machine learning was enough to secure a job interview.

Why can't employers find workers when talented people can't find jobs??Dr. Nita Chhinzer from the University of Guelph joins me to unpack what's happening in job markets right now. Employers are drowning in thousands of identical AI-polished resumes while qualified candidates are locked out of opportunities.So how do we fix that? Well part of it is assessments. Nita's research identifies four things employers actually hire for that never show up in job ads: professional maturity, attitude/coachability, willingness to work, and time management. Companies are going back to employee referrals and networking events, essentially crowdsourcing their recruitment because of the problem they have finding good people.On top of that, entry-level jobs have are disappearing which will bite sooner or later. Most promotions are internal... so where are the people they are going to promote? We've eliminated the pipeline and then wonder about bench strength. There's more... like AI. AI is not the sole reason there is so much restructuring. We're seeing the effects of geopolitical uncertainty, demographic shifts, and companies moving from talent hoarding to "just-in-time" hiring to avoid the exposure of carrying so many employees. AI is only a part.For new grads wondering where their entry point went, Nita talks about piecing together a career through contract work, internships, and building your personal brand. It may be tiring but, in today's market, it's what employees need to do. At least, if they do that, they have more control. For HR folks doing hiring, we need to do things different too and some of the answers are in the discussion. But this will continue to evolve.**Find Dr. Nita Chhinzer in the following places**https://www.linkedin.com/in/nitachhinzer/https://nitachhinzer.com/https://www.uoguelph.ca/lang/people/nita-chhinzer**Find Andrea Adams in the following places**https://www.linkedin.com/in/andrea-adams1/https://thehrhub.ca

November 7, 2025: AI is rewriting the world of work. This episode covers the major shifts making headlines today: Elon Musk's warning of a "supersonic tsunami" of job losses, record-breaking layoffs across U.S. companies, and Italy's landmark move to regulate how employers use AI. Microsoft's mass cuts are testing the myth of job security, while Airbus redefines HR as the architects of the future. Meanwhile, the New York Times argues the AI apocalypse isn't here yet—it's just reshaping how companies restructure—and Bloomberg reports the worst October for job cuts in over two decades. Together, these stories reveal a deeper trend: AI isn't simply automating work, it's exposing whether leaders can adapt fast enough to build trust, design new roles, and keep the human experience at the center of progress.

In this episode, I explore Norman Rush's Mating, focusing on the chapter “Guilty Repose” and the section “Weep for Me.” Through the narrator's encounter with the waterfall, I unpack themes of noise, solitude, mediocrity, and companionship — connecting her revelations to my own experiences with silence, striving, and the human need for connection.Discussion Highlights:How “the roar penetrates you” mirrors our craving for sensory overwhelm — music, crowds, even chaos — to quiet the mind's constant chatter.The painful beauty of solitude eroding, and what it means to reconnect with ourselves after long avoidance.The “Weep for Me” moment as an honest confrontation with buried sadness, surfacing only when the world finally goes quiet.The narrator's fear of mediocrity and how society equates “average” with “unacceptable,” fueling endless striving.The final revelation — “If you had a companion you would stay where you are” — as a call to seek steadiness, humility, and shared presence over transcendence.
