In this episode of Adriana Talks Dinero, Adriana continues the conversation about layoffs by focusing on what to do after you've been laid off.


Drawing from her own experience working in Human Resources and navigating a layoff herself, Adriana shares practical steps to help you protect your finances, understand your rights, and move forward with confidence during a difficult transition.


This episode is a reminder that losing a job is not a reflection of your worth, and that with the right preparation and support, you can navigate this chapter successfully.


In this episode we talk about:


• How to process the emotions that come with losing a job

• Why applying for unemployment immediately is so important

• What to look for in a severance package and why you should negotiate it

• How to handle health insurance and benefits after a layoff

• Understanding COBRA, state healthcare options, and available resources

• The importance of networking and leveraging LinkedIn during a job search

• Why layoffs are often business decisions and not personal failures

• How therapy and support systems can help during career transitions


Adriana also shares the story of her own layoff experience and the lessons she learned from helping over 100 employees navigate job loss during a company closure.

If you've recently been laid off or are worried about the possibility, this episode offers practical guidance, reassurance, and a roadmap for your next steps.

Remember: a layoff may change your job, but it does not define your value.


This is a bilingual podcast. The Spanish version of this episode will be released next week.
