I’m letting go of an employee this week, and it’s making me feel terrible. I’m wracked with guilty and full of empathy.

I’m still letting them go, but any advise on how to not feel so emotionally guilty for firing someone?

    This is business It has nothing to do with the person, it is the problem that matters. The employee may still feel rejected and bad, but you are letting them go for the business. A business is viewed legally as an independent entity. You need to see it the same way. It’s like a loved one in a coma. You speak for it and do your best to do what is best for it
