Job Loss Affirmation Cards | Grief Stages, Wound Types, Burnout Recovery (Digital Download)

36 printable affirmation cards for the grief no one told you was grief.

These cards were written by Dr. Scott — a licensed veterinarian and spiritual guide who has lived job loss grief from the inside. They are dedicated to the experience that almost broke her — and to every veterinarian, caregiver, and professional who gave everything to a place that did not deserve it, and who found their way back to themselves anyway.

✦ SAMPLE AFFIRMATIONS

─────────────────────────────

"Grief is not weakness. Grief is love with nowhere left to go. And you loved this. Of course it hurts."

"Your loyalty was real. Your effort was real. The fact that it was not protected or rewarded says everything about them and nothing about you."

"I am not starting over. I am starting from experience, from wisdom, from everything I now know about what I will not settle for."

"I came through the fire. I did not burn. I rose. That is what I do. That is who I am."
