I'm happy to announce that if you are job searching, you WILL be ok and you WILL land a great opportunity.

You are more than your current situation.

Being unemployed does NOT change your value.

Keep networking. Keep learning. Keep showing up.

The right opportunity might not be today, but it is coming.

I'm rooting for you, always. 💗 

P.S. I created a Job Search Guide to help in your search, feel free to send me a DM and I'll send to you.

After being laid off twice in five years, I felt like everything was falling apart.

Looking back, those layoffs were actually the best turning points of my career.

They pushed me to pause and take the leap into starting two small businesses, something I had always dreamed of.

Through it all, I discovered a resilience and strength I didn’t know I had. 

I learned that setbacks often plant the seeds for something even greater.

If you’re facing a career challenge right now, remember this:

The chapter you’re in is not your whole story. 

And sometimes, it leads to a future brighter than you ever imagined. 💘

Never base your self-worth on the decision of a recruiter who spent 10 seconds reading your resume.

It’s easy to take it personally when you don’t hear back. 

When your experience, skills, and the countless hours you’ve poured into your career feel like they’ve vanished in an instant. 

Here’s the truth: 

Your worth isn’t a bullet point or a job title.

It’s the work you’ve done, the impact you’ve made, and who you are. 

If you’re waiting for someone else to validate you, please try to stop. 

You’ve already earned it. 🧡

Dear Hiring Teams,

Behind every resume is a human being with dreams, ambitions, and potential.

Every great company is built by people who were given a chance.

Never underestimate the power of seeing potential over perfection.

Skills can be taught. 
Experience can be gained. 
But mindset, curiosity, and the willingness to grow are priceless.

Hire for potential. 
Lead with belief. 
The rest will follow.

🩷 Please share if this resonates.
🙏 Follow me Melissa Grabiner, for more.

There is so much going on in the world right now.

Choosing kindness is something we can always control.

To everyone. In every moment. 
Always.

Each person you meet is carrying a story you may never see.

Kindness doesn’t cost a thing, but its impact is limitless.

Let’s make kindness our default setting, today and every day. ❤️

I have gone through many tough times in my life.

Being laid off twice was one of one the most challenging.

Rejections, silence, self-doubt… it can take a toll. 

During those moments, these are 8 reminders I kept close:

➡️ There is always something to be grateful for.

➡️ Other people’s opinions aren’t worth your energy.

➡️ Every interview, rejection, or pause is a learning experience.

➡️ Everything can, and will, change. One opportunity can shift everything.

➡️ You’ve overcome challenges before. This process doesn’t define your worth.

➡️ Not getting the role you wanted may be redirecting you to something better.

➡️ It’s okay to step back, breathe, and allow yourself small moments of joy.

➡️ Being kind to yourself matters as this journey is already hard enough.

To anyone currently job searching: keep going. 

Your effort counts, even on the days it doesn’t feel like it. ❤️

I’ve failed many, many times in my career.

The kind that makes you question your judgment and sometimes your worth.

> I’ve taken roles that didn’t work out.
> Trusted people who disappointed me.
> Built things that didn’t scale the way I hoped.
> Missed opportunities I can clearly see in hindsight.
> Stayed at a company too long as I was afraid of starting over.

For a long time, I thought failure meant I was doing something wrong.

Now I see it differently.

Every failure sharpened my instincts.

Every setback forced me to get clearer about what I won’t tolerate.

Every “no” pushed me closer to work that actually fits who I am.

Success didn’t come from avoiding failure.

It came from surviving it, learning from it, and continuing anyway.

If you’re in a season where things feel messy, slow, or disappointing you’re not behind.

Rather, you’re becoming.❤️
