This review is from: Laid Off? Don't Stress! How to Get from Mad to Glad (Paperback)

Whether laid off or time off, getting back into the swing of things can turn out to be more than one had bargained for. That was true in my case when I drove from Maine to Arizona to join my partner and start a new life adventure. This book was inspiring and comforting. Hearing other life travelers' stories always are and Kitty has written it in such a way as to offer you hope, encouragement, a push, an "a Ha!" and a way to make sure that the light at the end of the tunnel is the sun....not an oncoming train. I would highly recommend the book for both your head and your heart.

Kitty's warmth and humor pervades the selection of the stories in this wonderful, life affirming book. If you've been laid off and are stressing about it, these inspiring stories will help you to see the light at the end of the tunnel. You'll understand that not all is lost, and this could very well be your time to do what you've always dreamed of doing. I recommend this book wholeheartedly, and am happy to see a positive spin on what is usually viewed as a negative event.

Kitty Wiemelt has done a tremendous job on this book. I would recomend reading this to anyone who needs a positive boost. I found it to be very encouraging and motivational. It inspires you to want to venture "out of the box" and discover new potentials,and levels of happiness, success and satisfaction. Laid off is filled with inspiring stories of others who have found their passion due to unexpected circumstances in their lives.
