NOW WHAT?

A community for women navigating career disruption

Work went sideways.
We figured it out.

Not with hustle culture or toxic positivity. With real tools, honest conversation, and women who actually get it. You're not alone in this.

2 tracks — practical and honest

The problem

Career advice was never built for women like us.

Most job search advice assumes you're 25, fresh out of college, and starting from scratch. It doesn't account for 20 years of expertise. It doesn't acknowledge that being laid off in your forties hits differently — in the body, not just the resume.

We started Embodied Work because the gap between what women our age actually need and what the career industrial complex offers is enormous.

Now What? is the bridge — and the community that makes it real.

What's in the mix

Two tracks. Real conversations. No performance.

Side A

The practical track

For when you need a strategy, not just a pep talk.

  • Severance law and your rights
  • Job search strategy that actually works for women 40+
  • Ikigai approach — start with what you actually want
  • Personal branding without performing
  • AI and what it means for your career
  • Resume and interview prep
Strategy Legal Job Search
Side B

The honest track

For when you need to talk about the stuff that keeps you up at 2am.

  • Identity after the job ends
  • Burnout recovery and nervous system repair
  • Boundaries — building them without building walls
  • ADHD and whole-person health
  • Toxic workplace recovery
  • Career pivots that actually make sense

The community

Small. Honest. Built by the people in it.

Now What? started as a summit and became a community. Women who came for the sessions stayed for the conversation. Because when work goes sideways, the last thing you need is another generic LinkedIn post about resilience. You need people who have been in the same room.

Coworking sessions

Drop in, ask questions, connect with other women in career transition. Real talk, no performance.

Cohorts that run

Job search, interview prep, networking. Structured programs with accountability built in.

Resource library

Practical tools, templates, and reading — not the same recycled content from every career blog.

Live sessions

Ongoing programming, guest experts, and Rachel-led workshops. The conversation continues.

"This is the community I needed and couldn't find. Real tools, no toxic positivity, and women who actually get it."
— Rachel, founder of Embodied Work

Your career story doesn't have to end with an apology.

Every woman in this community has a career story worth telling. Not the polished LinkedIn version — the real one. The layoff, the pivot, the rebuild. The work of figuring out what actually fits now, in your forties or fifties, after everything you thought was true turned out not to be.

Embodied Work exists to close that gap — between what you've accomplished and what the world tells you you're worth. Between who you actually are and what your job title says you are.

The best work comes from knowing who you actually are.
