Losing your job can suck—we’re here to help.

Getting laid off comes with a whirlwind of emotions—shock, stress, anxiety, shame, uncertainty, and sometimes relief and excitement. More than 100,000 people have been laid off since the start of 2023. But, while frustrating and traumatic, being let go can also be that next metaphorical door opening in your career. 

Enter Fortune's newest email offering: How To Survive A Layoff is a free three-week course that guides you through the tricks and tips of crafting your story, going through the job-seeking process, managing your finances, dealing with anxiety, and more to get back on your feet after a layoff.

Fortune’s Success team, a vertical that focuses on the working world, careers, and personal economics, crafted this survival guide based on our own experiences and what we’ve heard from readers. You can sign up at any time, and you’ll receive a total of nine emails from us, roughly one every two days, with tips and suggestions on how to center your mind, handle your money without a steady paycheck, and land—or create—your next job. You’ll find advice on everything from how to negotiate a severance package to prepping for virtual interviews and brushing up your job skills.

If you've been impacted by the slew of layoffs dominating the news cycle, we hope this will be helpful. And if not, we hope you'll share with a loved one who could benefit.
