Great Information and Great Advice!

I wish I had this book during the pandemic when I lost my job it would have been a lifesaver. It gives simple and practical advice on everything from budgeting to short-term income ideas while job hunting. The mental health tips and self-care advice would have been so helpful during that stressful time. Not only would it have made things easier then, but it’s also a book I’ll keep handy for the future. Life is unpredictable, and having a guide like this can be a huge help if I ever face unemployment again. It’s a must-listen for anyone who wants to turn a tough situation into an opportunity for a fresh start.

Twist on Unemployment

My husband has had his bouts of unemployment and this would have been a great book for him to have. At first, he is cheery and very excited about new opportunities, but it sizzles out quickly, and he gets depressed. This book actually brings a hopeful side to unemployment. And you may not be unemployed quite yet but you may be facing unemployment and this book can be really good for people to prevent themselves from falling into a deep dark hole and keeping their hopes alive when they aren't going to the job of their dreams each day. Great resource for people.
