The Psychological Impact of Negative Wall Street and Business News on the Unemployed

Wall Street continues to spew negative news. Layoffs continue, criminal and SEC investigations are announced.

Congress is politically split in resolving the issues and issuing a measure of disrespect towards others rarely seen on Capital Hill. Each day more people are blindsided by unemployment or the inability to find meaningful employment. In this 30 minute interview, Dr Roger Hawkins, author of “Blindsided: Surviving Career Meltdown” will discuss how Wall Street news impacts personal self-worth and well being; and how someone can manage the news of Wall Street and the news of their life.
