About
In 2025, thousands of U.S. government employees lost their jobs. For many of them, the sudden change forced an unexpected reckoning: a reconsideration of priorities; of passions; professional aspirations; and even personal identity. Some viewed this as an opportunity for reinvention and embarked upon a journey of self-discovery and rebirth. They began turning personal interests into professions; building businesses; mentoring others; and ushering in a new era limited only by their own resourcefulness and creativity.
