Today on episode 36 I’m pleased to welcome climber, author, editor, father, and prolific first ascensionist Matt Samet. Recently, Matt was unexpectedly laid off from his position as editor of Climbing Magazine, a position he has held on and off for nearly two decades.
The state of media, particularly print media, is something that has held my attention in recent years. Although I’ve considered reaching out to Matt for some time to discuss his career in writing and climbing journalism, this finally felt like the right moment.
Join us as we take a deeper dive on media, journalism, balancing climbing and other life obligations, as well as some good-ole-fashioned musings on the modern climbing life.

Hello and welcome back to Equity, a podcast about the business of startups, where we unpack the numbers and nuance behind the headlines.
This is our Wednesday show, where we niche down to a single topic, think about a question and unpack the rest. This week, Natasha asked: How are early-stage founders thinking about this downturn? The inimitable Alex teamed up with her to interview Joshua Ogundu, the founder and CEO of Heart to Heart about this timely topic.
The question comes after Natasha’s recent Startups Weekly column, "Everyone is drafting their own startup Black Swan memo." The column looked at a series of memos that venture capitalist firms sent to portfolio companies about the market downturn. Some were hopeful, some were simple, and others were a vibe check as straightforward as, Can you tell us your ARR and cash-burn in writing? Pretty please?
To flip the script, as we do here on Equity, we're bringing in the founder perspective to fact check these memos and tell us what it's really like to be a founder. Ogundu told us what he's rethinking, the importance of honesty, and what to do before considering a layoff. It's not too often that we have guests on the show, so when we do, you know it's going to be a good one.

In their fight for survival, small businesses in Canada have had to contend with the effects of added debt loads, supply-chain disruptions, labour shortages and the ongoing threat of further COVID waves. As government pandemic support is being phased out, many businesses will not have the means to carry on. What happens when a business goes into receivership or files for Bankruptcy? As an employee what can you do before and after your employer shuts its doors?
In today’s podcast Daniel Maksymchak, a Licensed Insolvency Trustee with LCTaylor & Associates in Winnipeg, Manitoba answers those questions and more. He explains the insolvency process for both employers and employees.
In this podcast find out:
Daniel has worked in the bankruptcy and insolvency field since 2010. His career began in accounting, receiving his Chartered Accountant designation in 2009. He attained his Licensed Insolvency Trustee accreditation in 2014.

Teri, Joss' personal mentor, is an entertainment reporter and producer. Teri and Joss first met working for city TV, both tasked in building out the entertainment division. Teri exposes the things on Joss' desk (there may have been a jar of nutella). She shares her most memorable celebrity moments, getting a body buzz by asking J-Lo the perfect question, hearing Oprah tell her she asked a good question. Teri and Joss reveal the difficulty of being a reporter, having only one shot to capture a celebrity's attention. Teri discloses the strength it took to bounce back from getting laid off twice in the last 5 years. She reflects on working for the Movie Network for 19 years, and speaks of her current transitional period in growing out of being a company girl.
Losing a job can cause a lot of emotional distress, it is overwhelming and there is so much uncertainty that comes with it. Having to think about what’s next and immersing yourself in the job search search process can be daunting. While this is a very difficult and challenging time, this can also be a time to redirect and reinvent your career. There is a lot you can do to regain control of your situation and build momentum to move forward in your career and job search.
In this episode I have a very special guest that talks about how he has bounced back from 3 layoffs. Juan Ortiz shares his process in moving forward each and every time, his strategies, and unexpected opportunities that ultimately propelled his career.

It has happened to so many of us. You get called into an unexpected meeting only to see someone from HR sitting at the table. Your heart sinks because you know what's coming. You're part of a "workforce reduction". That's what happened to Mark Herfurth after a long 26 year career with his company.
I met Mark a few years ago after a panel discussion where I had been talking about The Gratitude Spark and how gratitude had played a role in my life through some pretty challenging situations. After the meeting, Mark introduced himself and mentioned that he had recently been going through a pretty dark time as he was in the midst of a job transition.
Over the course of 2020, far too many of us experienced the journey of a job transition. In this episode, Mark will talk with us about his journey - the struggles he had, the uncertainties that came with the transition, the lessons he learned along the way. Mark's story is one of struggle, introspection, resilience and how his intentional focus on gratitude not only led him to a new opportunity, but also to a new perspective on life.

Dr. Orsini took what he learned as an ICU physician who had to deliver difficult news to families and founded The Orsini Way, a communication training company that helps healthcare professionals and business leaders navigate difficult conversations and build strong relationships.
As you know compassionate communication in business is especially pertinent in today’s climate, and he’s currently training business and HR professionals how to navigate difficult conversations with employees around the pandemic. These conversations are never easy or natural, especially when they can’t be in person, but delivering difficult news and compassionate communication is a skill that can be mastered.

In part 3 - 'Brand Burns' - we change gear, rounding off our discussion by getting Katie's take on three burning questions...
1) Flavour of the month: we discuss the different dimensions of the Singular Society brand (from H&M), and the rise of a subscription based, members-only retail model, where everything is sold at cost!
2) Brand Bullshit: why less can be more when it comes to social, and the risk of losing sight over what makes sense for your brand to say, and where to say it. Case in point - Bottega Veneta's decision to withdraw from all social media channels.
3) Fortunate Failure: her perspectives on how every layoff and setback has helped her to leap, grow and stretch in the next chapters of her career, however tough it may be at the time. Something Katie believes is more important than ever for people to appreciate.

Today we're discussing:
This show is different from any of the other shows in the past. However, it won’t be the last of its kind. This entire show is dedicated to a listener’s question named Amanda, a single mom and Project Manager of 10 who is afraid of being a part of her company’s next layoff.

What do you do when your life falls apart, you lose everything and have to start over? You find the clues in the past that point to the transformation you want to create and start moving towards it.
Dear Jennifer: In the past two years, I have lost everything, my job, my home, my friends and I barely speak to my family. Although I have been looking for a job, I can’t find one and I’m living with a friend now that I barely get along with. I don’t know what to do to fix my life and I’m having a hard time figuring out my next steps. How do I get my life back and how do I create the stable, secure and happy life that I want?
Jennifer’s Answer: What you are experiencing has been felt by so many people in the past 15 plus years and it is hard when everything in your life changes like this. Your response of sadness, fear and regret at these changes is keeping you stuck and preventing you from creating the new life that you want. Regretting the passing of the past is also enforcing the belief that this somehow happened to you and you are the victim, not the creator.
While it may be hard to find the energy and courage to see new possibilities for yourself, that is what you must do if anything in your life is going to transform. You may be wondering why this has happened to you, so let’s talk about the real reasons behind what has happened here.
Everything enters and leaves our life at our conscious or unconscious invitation, so it is not possible to actually ‘lose’ anything.
If we don’t appreciate or value what we have and secretly wish it would go away or consciously set an intention for something new, we disconnect our energy from our current reality and whatever must leave our life. It is leaving to create energetic space for something else to enter. This is what our intention does, it creates an energy container for the energy that will empower our intention to flow into.
To invite something else in, we have to create space for it by setting an intention for it. This process is what creates the in and out flow of people, situations, and experiences into and out of our life.
Imagine a revolving door, which is an interesting piece of engineering that was created at a time when public buildings were not heated. The revolving door allowed people to enter and to leave the building without any heat escape. What’s interesting about revolving doors, though, is the people are entering the building at the same time that people are leaving the building, it depends on which side of the revolving door they are on. I call what I’m going to explain to you my ‘revolving door transformation process’.
While we are grateful for what we have and appreciate every circumstance and situation, every life situation ‘run out of energy road’ meaning it holds no energy for us and while we’re trying to balance the energy with people and situations, by using the revolving door process we achieve closure with what we no longer resonate with and its outflow is graceful and effortless.
The empty space we have created with this release is then filled with the new things we have set our intention to receive. But when we feel angry and powerless, when we hate our life circumstances, and are upset with people and with ourselves, we create an energetic disconnection without first creating the space for the new to arrive.
Why does our life suddenly seem to fall apart and we ‘lose’ everything? I think there are 3 reasons, based on nearly 20 years of coaching, intuitive consults, and working with people from over 40 countries
1. It is time for us to move on and we aren’t paying attention to the signs.
2. We are following a path that is not right for us
3. We want to change but lack the courage to make a change
We can then find ourselves in the situation you are in, where everything seems to leave at once and our lives are empty.
What if we really like what we are doing and it just doesn’t work? I experienced that in my career. Always been intuitive, have a strong life transformation story, always
Some questions for you to consider are:
With the energy moving as quickly as it does now, responses to our desires can arrive very quickly. It doesn’t matter whether we are consciously or unconsciously wishing our lives would change, when we scatter our energy through anger, fear, and feeling powerless, we get incomplete results.
And something else to consider is the universal laws – I used to write about them a lot about 13 years ago and had a program called the 12 Universal laws. One of the laws, #6, is the Law of Cause and Effect. It’s my favorite because it states that ‘everything in our reality is an effect and we are the cause.’ This means that everything is a result of what we have created.
I know it doesn’t feel right that we would deliberately crash and burn our own lives or create havoc intentionally but we do, for our own reasons. That’s the topic for another podcast.
What I want to emphasize here is the universal law of cause and effect. If you are always the cause and your reality is always an effect or result, how do you change the effect? By changing the cause, by creating something different. Instead of feeling victimized by the effect (which you created) try altering your vibe, your words, beliefs, and actions to become a cause. We have two choices – become a different cause or become a victim of the effect. I would rather become a new cause, wouldn’t you?
See yourself as the creator of your reality, as the author of your world, so you pay attention to what you’re creating and start becoming more mindful of what you are
The Universe works with us, not for us. It will not create something for us that we do not or will not first create for ourselves. To fill your life with what you love, you must first give yourself closure with what you have allowed to leave your life (what you say you ‘lost’), which is no longer aligned with your energy or intention, by being grateful for it and appreciating what you have already created and the lessons it represents.
Then you need to start working with your intention to create something new for your life now. It may take some time but then again, you are ready for change so it may also happen very quickly. It depends on how willing you are to see yourself as powerful instead of powerless, how much you can accept that everyone is where they can be which may not be where you want them to be, forgive yourself and others and give yourself the closure you need to close these energetic connections to your ‘old’ life and create something new and wonderful in your life now.
You won’t get your old life back (you didn’t like it anyway or you would still have it) but you will create a new and more fulfilling life and learn the powerful lesson of how energy works and how powerfully it responds to you, so you practice gratitude and appreciation and use intention to create your life, instead of scattering your energy unconsciously and then find yourself in the fearful, empty space that you face when things fall apart, as you have experienced.

Businesses of all sizes have taken a ROUGH hit in 2020, and unstable employment is a stressor for everyone right now. So today we’re talking about how to bounce back from a layoff and what to do if it happens to you, with the help of Latesha Byrd, a certified career coach, talent development consultant, Google Digital Coach, and CEO of Byrd Career Consulting.
Whether you’ve been laid off due to COVID, industry shifts, or company restructuring, remember that you are not to blame, and you’re so much more than what you do from 9-5. The best way to bounce back is with a solid strategy: You can start by identifying your purpose, getting intentional about job applications, and as Latesha says, “staying ready so you don’t have to get ready.”
