      I got laid off last year while doing my MBA. It sucks. Read “When Things Fall Apart” by Pema Chodron. Not your typical self help bs, but it helped me deal with feeling like everything was falling apart. Also “What Color Is Your Parachute” – kinda old school but good for figuring out next steps. The [NoFluffWisdom Newsletter](https://nofluffwisdom.com/subscribe) has some practical takes on bouncing back and staying productive—might vibe with what you’re going through!
