So how have you been navigating the emotional side of things? Because I have lost my job before and it's not a great feeling. And sometimes it can take some time to process that.

I also wanted to ask you kind of related to what you're saying. I know that when I have gone through gaps in my resume, whether it be leaving a job or losing my job, I have always leaned on contract work. So how much of an option is that for you? Are you open to that? Are there freelance opportunities that you can explore?

I'm happy for you. Going through something like this and having a strong support network can really make it easier. And also it shows how financially savvy you are because it takes a lot of courage to tell people this is what my budget is and I don't want to go over it. So good job to you.

And that makes me want to pivot a little bit back to something you were talking about earlier, which is important when you're experiencing unemployment, which is COBRA versus marketplace insurance. So it sounds like you have a really good hold on your budget. So what were your questions around that? Are there any concerns that you have there?
