At nearly 50 she is worried about not being able to find a new job, and about having to deal with the consequences of being unemployed. That said, she knows that her redundancy is inevitable, and that it is just the start of a more substantial wave of redundancies in the organization. So she does as Shakespeare suggests: she identifies an opportunity to negotiate a good redundancy package and to use it to start something new. After the initial shock and anger about losing her job, now all she can see is possibility. The ‘disaster’ has become a springboard to finally do the thing she has wanted to do for so long. Far from being depressed, she is all bubbly and enthusiastic. She took Shakespeare at his word and totally embraced the change she could not avoid. When I see how she has handled the situation, I’m impressed. There is a lot I can learn from such a woman. And you? When ‘disaster’ strikes, do you try to duck it, or can you give it a hug, a la Shakespeare?
