How do I tell my family about the layoff? (Austin)

My spouse does not know yet that I was let go as an event coordinator. It has been a long 14 weeks. Bills are coming up and I cannot keep this quiet. Did it get easier afterwards?

Keep everything in writing and save the confirmation numbers. It made the follow-up calls so much easier.

Kids often pick up more than you think. A short, calm explanation helped mine feel secure.
