Early Praise for the Book

-



As we count down to the official launch of Redefined: Finding Purpose and Power After Job Loss Amid AI Disruption and Market Uncertainty (less than a month away!), I’ve been reflecting on what this journey has meant — not only to me, but to so many others navigating career reinvention and uncertainty.

Over the past few weeks, I’ve received several incredible endorsements from leaders and changemakers who understand the power of resilience and human connection in the future of work. Their words remind me why this project matters so deeply.

Early Praise for Redefined

"Cynthia shows us that losing a high-powered job isn't an end - it's a chance to realign work with passion, build safety nets, and trust our intuition. An insightful and inspiring read."  
— Mercedes Soler, a five-time Emmy and Peabody award winner, President of a Spanish-language radio group, a lifelong broadcast journalist, and co-author of Dish & Tell: Life, Love and Secrets.

"This book feels like sitting across from a trusted friend who understands the chaos of sudden change. What makes it stand out is the rare balance of honesty and hope, weaving personal story with practical reflection prompts that guide you gently forward. Anyone facing a layoff, life disruption, or uncertain crossroads will find both comfort and courage in these pages." 
— Christina Frantom, Internal Communications Lead, Mercedes-Benz US International, Inc. 

Reading these notes of support honestly stops me for a second, but because they affirm the why behind it: helping people see that being redefined isn’t the end of your story. It’s the start of a new one.

If you’ve ever faced a layoff, a major life pivot, or the uncertainty of emerging technologies like artificial intelligence, I hope Redefined serves as your reminder that purpose and progress can coexist, even in disruption.

Tech Tuesday: The Transformative Impact of AI on Jobs

Welcome back to Tech Tuesday, where we explore the intersection of technology, work, and humanity — how innovation shapes our careers, challenges our systems, and tests our ability to adapt. Each week is a reminder that staying curious isn’t optional; it’s essential. We’re now witnessing the next wave of automation, and this time it’s not factory floors being transformed but offices. Economists warn that AI’s disruption of white-collar work has only just begun, with professional, financial, and creative roles especially in flux. In just the past few weeks, several major employers, including Amazon, Palantir, Salesforce, and fintech firm Klarna, have confirmed layoffs tied directly to AI adoption. These aren’t isolated adjustments; they signal a broader restructuring of what white-collar work will look like in the years ahead. Behind those headlines are people, talented, experienced professionals, suddenly facing uncertainty through no fault of their own. For many, the shift isn’t just...

The Why Behind "Redefined"

To be honest, I didn’t set out to write a book. I set out to understand what happens when life suddenly asks you to start again. There’s a particular silence that follows change; it's the kind that fills the air after a door closes. Titles disappear. Emails stop coming. The calendar that once defined your worth becomes strangely empty. In that quiet, you start to hear a different question whispering beneath the noise: Who am I now? That’s where Redefined began. Not in a plan or proposal, but in the space between endings and beginnings, between who I thought I was and who I was becoming. I’ve spoken with people who’ve had to rebuild entire lives after layoffs, restructures, health crises, and personal losses. They were executives, creatives, scientists. People who had done everything “right.” Yet their worlds still shifted beneath them. What I learned from them, and from my own experience, is that reinvention isn’t really about starting over. It’s about starting truer to yourself....
