Why SameBoat exists

Major life changes shouldn’t have to be weathered alone—or in front of an audience of ten thousand strangers.

SameBoat is built and operated by Varry LLC, a veteran-owned small business based in Richmond, Virginia, founded by Trevor Lowing.

When you lose a longtime job in a layoff, the hardest part is rarely a lack of generic advice on the internet. It’s the sudden loss of peers who speak your shorthand and understand what your Tuesday looks like. SameBoat starts with layoffs, and is built so other big life changes can follow.
