From Redundancy to Reinvention
When voluntary redundancy landed on her desk after almost 16 years in the rail industry, Emma Somers made a decision most people spend years circling.
She chose to leave.
In this episode of Unstoppable Women, Emma shares what it really takes to walk away from long service, rebuild your identity, and start again as a founder.
We talk about:
– Losing a sponsor and feeling suddenly exposed– Leading your team through redundancy while navigating your own– Imposter syndrome and self-doubt– Reinventing your career from the inside out– Designing work that is energetically aligned, not just impressive on paper
Emma now runs her own consultancy, working with leadership teams to strengthen trust, connection and performance.
This conversation is for any woman facing a crossroads - redundancy, restructuring, burnout or the quiet realisation that security no longer fits.
Unstoppable doesn’t mean fearless.
It means choosing yourself anyway.
