Finding a job is hard enough, but have you ever considered the odds and the challenges of finding a good man?

I've worked with Ed Bradley, Dan Rather and lots of different local news anchors.

I was fired at the pinnacle of my career, on my 39th birthday. And in the year that followed, I learned that there are many psychological phases of being 'let go.'

Women play into each other's weaknesses.

We have to stop judging people who are struggling with their weight.

Being unemployed has so many real and palpable ramifications but there are also psychological side effects which you can only understand if youve truly lived through it.

We have to unclutter our brains from worries that maybe people don't like us. Women tend to worry about popularity; it doesn't matter if they like you. They need to respect you. They need to show that respect for you in your pay check. And that needs to be okay.
