For high performers, being fired can be reframed as a moment of necessary recalibration rather than a verdict on personal worth. Instead of viewing it as a catastrophe, it can be seen as vital information or a signal from the universe that a specific career path is no longer the right fit. This perspective shift helps individuals move from asking "why me?" to focusing on "what now?" as they navigate their next career transition.
Job loss introduces significant weight for parents, especially since raising a child with a disability can cost between 1.4 million and 2.4 million dollars over a lifetime.
