Reflections after coming back home for the second time—this time after an unplanned trip back to Seoul.

Sharing why I hate this question and how it has and continues to haunt me.

Patiently waiting for news, updates, and someone to say yes is challenging, but we can’t put life on hold.

Taking time to reflect on the past year full of ups and downs.

Shifting away from a powerless, victim mindset to take some accountability—while also acknowledging I’ve been in some tough work situations.

Discussing the hardest and painful questions that haunts me day in and day out.

Discussing some observations and outcomes during the initial few months of being laid off.

Without the distractions of work, I’m forced to do some deep introspective work.

Reflecting on the experience and emotions of getting laid off at a job less than three months in.
