Diving Into Federal Career Pivots & Side Hustles

Career disruption and side hustles are increasingly common — but how do they impact your security clearance?

In this episode of Security Clearance Insecurity, Lindy Kyzer of ClearanceJobs sits down with federal career coach and FedUpward host Love Rutledge to discuss navigating unexpected federal career pivots, translating government experience for the private sector, and the emotional impact of leaving civil service.

They also share transition resources for federal employees, including:

• Partnership for Public Service — https://ourpublicservice.org
• FormerGov — https://www.formergov.com
• FedUpward Podcast — https://www.fedupwardcoaching.com/podcast

Later, security clearance attorney John Berry joins the show to break down how job hopping, gig work, outside employment, tax issues, and timecard fraud can raise clearance concerns — and what to do to stay compliant.
