You spent decades earning your place in federal service. Nobody told you how hard it would be to leave it behind.

After the Badge is the no-nonsense field manual for federal employees navigating the transition out of government service—the identity shift, the marriage strain, the financial fog, and the quiet question nobody asks out loud: Who am I now?

Written by Wilder, this book cuts through the noise with straight talk, practical frameworks, and hard-earned perspective for GS-13 through SES employees and their spouses.

If you're approaching your last day in federal service—or already past it—this book is for you.
