Millions of us feel lost at sea when we lose our jobs or want to change careers.

Explore the despair, recovery, discovery, and triumph that come with losing our jobs, changing careers, and finding work we love. Whether losing your job by layoff or by choice, this memoir and guide offers solace, insights, and actions for navigating an experience that can be traumatic, turbulent, and triumphant. Reading Nancy's story is like having a conversation with a trusted confidant and coach.

How can you lose your job and find work you are meant to do?
Network less. Job hunt online more.

Having landed all of her positions by applying for advertised jobs, Nancy crushes pervasive myths about the "hidden job market" and networking. After 20 years in one company, she conducted four search strategies, discovered work she was meant to do, helped clients gain confidence and find new jobs, and landed in an amazing job of her own.

Conventional wisdom that 80% of jobs are never advertised is long overdue for extinction. At least 40% of new hires are found through online channels, and this is growing exponentially. Professionals who don't use online job boards, social media, and company career sites to generate interviews and offers are missing primary pathways to land their next jobs.

Job seekers get results with Nancy's divergent Sweet Spot Job Search Method and tips on 25 Activities that are more and less effective for self-discovery, job hunting, networking, and finding work you love.
