Hi everyone, share your blindsided layoff stories below so I can feel a little bit better about mine.

Covered a managers meeting for her yesterday, was with some senior members of the marketing team. A director opens the call with “we are so sorry about the impacts the layoffs have had on your teams today…” then noticed I was in the call and said “we are still notifying others so best to keep it under the radar” …25% of my team was let go three hours later with no warning😬

Even to this day, I feel like I have crippling anxiety and imposter syndrome when speaking. It’s easier in project read outs and dedicated client meetings, but much worse when I’m going in cold or without a set agenda. Has anyone worked with / used a coach, tools, etc. to help with this? Recommendations?
