“You’re Fired” – Now What? Career Advice, Layoff Stories & How To Build Confidence

On this episode of SheerLuxe Conversations, Charlotte Collins is joined by two legends of the fashion and media world: Laura Brown and Kristina O’Neill – former top editors turned authors of ‘All The Cool Girls Get Fired’. Together they unpack what really happens when you lose your job – from the shock and shame to the surprising freedom on the other side. They share their own stories of being fired from huge roles in New York publishing, why “fired” is the word we should be using and how owning it publicly (yes, even on Instagram) is the quickest way to move forward. The trio also dive into standout stories from the book – including from the likes of Oprah, Lisa Kudrow, Tarana Burke and Carol Burnett – plus, the practical stuff no one teaches you: money, identity, LinkedIn, healthcare and how to rebuild confidence when your career rug is pulled out from under you. They also talk about the changing media landscape, personal brands and why a set-back can genuinely be a set-up.
