You are Not a Line Item: Healing through Storytelling and Community

Send us a text

In this soul-grounding episode, Dr. Anitra Manning opens a new mini-series exploring the often overlooked grief of layoffs. With compassion, clarity, and spiritual depth, she invites listeners to name the moral injury, shame, and identity rupture that follow job loss — and begin the process of healing.

Drawing from her own story, along with wisdom from grief-informed frameworks and faith-based reflection, Dr. Anitra reminds us: you are not a line item. You are not disposable. You are still whole.

Whether you’ve recently been laid off, are quietly grieving a past role, or love someone who is navigating vocational loss — this episode is a companion for the journey back to dignity and truth.

Mentioned in this episode:

• Concepts of moral injury, vocational grief, and communal care
• Spiritual insight: Jesus and rejection, worth beyond systems
• Grief wisdom drawn from Darcy Harris, Alan Wolfelt, Theresa Rando, and others
• A grounding blessing and reflection practice
