Lost my job, Changed Careers, and Now I’m Leading at a Major Company! [Story]

Sometimes life pushes you in unexpected directions. Had I not been fired from my job, I’m not sure where I’d be right now.

I got this fortune a couple of days ago, and it hit me hard. A few years back, I lost my sales job, was jobless for almost a year, and had just gone through a tough breakup. It was a rough time, but looking back, it forced me to completely change careers. I dedicated myself to learning UX design from scratch, built my experience, and now I’m stepping into a leadership role at a major company. I even mentor aspiring designers on the side, giving back to others in the position I once was. This fortune felt like a sign that all the hard work and perseverance paid off. I smiled when I saw it and wanted to share this moment with you all—keep pushing forward, even when things get tough!
