Today’s episode is about navigating layoffs. Whether triggered by a gallery restructure, a delayed museum opening, or a market slowdown, more people are finding themselves at a crossroads. Our guests bring decades of perspective. Brooke Lampley, senior director at Gagosian and one of the field’s most respected dealmakers, shares why grace in the first 72 hours can shape long-term prospects. Career coach and Art Market Mentors cofounder Cat Manson explains how to reframe the story so it opens doors instead of closing them. And Loic Gouzer, founder of the auction app Fair Warning, makes the case that every pause is an opportunity to invest in yourself. The takeaway? A layoff doesn't have to be the end of your art-world journey, it can be a reset.
