About this listen
When change hits at work—a layoff, reorg, or new leadership—it doesn’t just shake your job. It shakes identity, belonging, and the body’s sense of safety.
In this episode of Adaptive Humans™, host Jami de Lou shares practical, compassionate tools for navigating those first few days after everything changes. You’ll learn how to spot your body’s stress patterns, build a 72-hour plan to find stability, and support others through uncertainty.
This episode is for anyone who’s been laid off, “survived” a reorg, or leads a team in transition.
In This Episode
- What fight, flight, freeze, and fawn look like at work — and how to move through them
- How to create a 72-hour plan for your first three days of transition
