Surviving & Thriving

What if being fired wasn't the worst thing that ever happened to you?

Surviving & Thriving: A Practical Guide to Navigating Workplace Toxicity is the honest, unflinching guide for employees who were overlooked, pushed out, or quietly broken down by the environments they gave everything to. Written by someone who has been in the ring, including being let go without cause, Rose Ficco names what is really happening in workplaces that reward incompetence, protect bad leadership, and sideline the people who keep the lights on.

Inside, you'll find practical tools for documenting toxic behaviour, setting real boundaries, navigating the job search after a difficult exit, and rebuilding your confidence, your finances, and your sense of self. You'll also meet the full cast of the office circus, from The Ringmaster who takes all the credit to The Juggler who carries everyone else's load, and finally see your own story clearly.

This is not a book about staying positive. It is a book about getting clear, getting steady, and finding somewhere you deserve to be... because you were never the problem.

BONUS INSIDE: The 30-Day Job Loss Rescue Planner, your day-by-day plan for the first month after a difficult exit.
