Vivian sits down with authors and career experts Laura Brown and Kristina O'Neill to explore what really happens when you get fired and why it might be the best thing that ever happened to you.

Whether you're facing a layoff, stuck in a months-long job search, or wondering if it's time to leave a toxic situation without a backup plan, they share the real tactics that work when everything feels uncertain.

Laura Brown and Kristina O’Neill had the kind of jobs most people only dream about. They were the women behind some of the world’s most glamorous magazines — InStyle, Harper’s Bazaar, WSJ. Magazine — sitting front row at fashion week, rubbing shoulders with celebs on covershoots, and setting the cultural agenda. But then, both of them got fired. In an industry built on power, prestige, and appearances, being shown the door at the very top should have been devastating. Instead, it sparked a friendship, a book, and a movement. Their manifesto All the Cool Girls Get Fired is about stripping away the shame of job loss and reframing it as a rite of passage. In this conversation with Kate Langbroek, Laura and Kristina open up about what it’s really like to lose your dream job, the night out that led to their viral “all the cool girls get fired” post, and how even icons like Oprah and Lisa Kudrow have their own firing stories. It’s about friendship, resilience, and reinvention — and why getting fired might just be the best thing that ever happens to you.

What began as taking different life paths for both Laura Brown and Frank Starling has evolved into a shared mission: building inclusive spaces in the advertising industry. At just 21, Laura was made redundant with no savings, before she started temping as a receptionist at Cannes Lions. What seemed like a setback became a launchpad. Today, she is Cannes Lion's Head of Advancing Equitable Access and leads its See It Be It program — which builds inclusive spaces to help elevate women and nonbinary people's careers in advertising.  For Frank, entering the work force early with a passion for improving his community in East London forged a relentless drive to make workplaces more inclusive. Now as LION's Chief DEI Officer, he's using his platform to build belonging across the advertising and communication industries. Together, they unpack how See It Be It advances careers, focuses on retention just as much as recruitment, and how supporting regional communities play a vital role in sustaining inclusion efforts. The Cannes Lions festival will take place from June 16 through June 20, 2025. Founders International Network is the official media partner for Cannes Lions' See It Be It Program. This episode was produced by Hauwa Otori with help from Osheiza Otori. Music composed by Kevin Edwards. You can follow FIN on LinkedIn and BBP on Instagram.

Laura Brown is a journalist, a former editor in chief of InStyle, the founder of LB Media, and the BFF everyone wishes they had. After losing her EIC position due to InStyle's print shutdown in 2022, Brown was suddenly free to do whatever she wanted—namely bridging the gap between her fashion world and various community-building programs. Among her other initiatives to “meddle for good,” Brown recently became chair of (RED)'s Creative Council, where she rallies her friends in fashion and Hollywood to join the fight against AIDS. Plus, she launched a collaboration with the dreamy French brand Sézane unofficially called French Enough, an ode to the French-girl aesthetic with a hint of LB's trademark mischief.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
