Season two of The Reboot Era is officially here.

In this kickoff episode, I reflects on everything that’s happened since season one ended — landing a new job, navigating a completely new company, dealing with the emotional whiplash of another layoff announcement, and realizing that being “back to work” doesn’t mean the fear goes away.

This episode sets the tone for season two:

• Why layoffs aren’t going anywhere
• How being rehired doesn’t erase trauma
• The importance of financial cushions and community
• Fighting for people from inside the system
• What it really feels like to rebuild… again

Season two will feature returning guests from season one, new voices, and unfiltered conversations about work, leadership, hiring, firing, and everything in between.
