The Good in Goodbye is part memoir, part roadmap for anyone navigating the uncertainty of job loss, career transitions, or the emotional rollercoaster of being laid off. After being unexpectedly let go while on medical leave from a major tech company, Jay Stephens faced one of the most challenging seasons of her life. What followed was a year of resilience: 115 job applications, over 200 interviews, multiple career fairs, and a transformed outlook on work and purpose.
