In February 2025, scientists across the Washington In February 2025, scientists across the Washington, DC area faced one of the most terrifying moments of our careers. It was nerve-wracking and unforgettable. But it also taught me one of the most valuable lessons. As many of you know, with the new administration, “priorities changed.” And suddenly, scientists, many of us working to protect communities, health, and the environment began losing our jobs. One by one, people I deeply admired were terminated. 🔹 Some had newborns. 🔹 Some were supporting aging parents. 🔹 Some were first-generation scholars with no financial cushion. 🔹 Many had given over a decade of their lives to public service. As an empath, I barely slept for days. I even started The Rebuild Network (https://lnkd.in/e3ZUt5zz) to help connect and support colleagues through this crisis. That word, CONNECT, turned out to be the key. Soon, I noticed a pattern: The first ones to land new roles were those who had been visible all along. They had one or all of these: ✅ Active LinkedIn profiles ✅ Small but consistent newsletters ✅ A habit of sharing their work and values online Their communities came through for them—because they had one. And it hit me: A few minutes a week spent being visible isn’t just good outreach. It’s career insurance. You don’t need to post every day. You don’t need to be loud or perfect. But you do need to start showing up. Because life is unpredictable. And visibility can mean survival.
