Andrea was laid off from her job as a marketing professional during the pandemic. She took time to review her severance package and consult with legal professionals before signing it. She coped with the emotional impact by shutting down emotions, focusing on legal matters, seeking support, and finding healthy coping mechanisms. However, she faced additional stressors such as a breakup and lack of support from family due to the pandemic lockdown restrictions. She used her free time to start a business.
