Laid Off as a Software Engineer in 2025 | Why I'm taking a sabbatical 😰

I was recently laid off as a Software Engineer in 2025, and instead of rushing straight into the next job, I’m taking a 3-month sabbatical. As a single mom with responsibilities and bills to pay, this wasn’t an easy decision—but I believe it’s the right one.

In this video, I share my reasons for taking time off and why sabbaticals (while common in other parts of the world) are still considered a huge luxury in America.

👉 If you’ve ever thought about taking a break from work, I hope my story encourages you to reflect on what matters most.
