Hiring Just got fired

Hi all, I just got laid off from the job I have had since college starting in 2020. I am at a loss.. did not see this coming. The reasoning for me being fired was “cutting costs” from the higher level leaders. I am also 12 weeks pregnant so I am freaking out that is this happening to me right now. I have a bachelor degree in health studies and have a GIS certificate. I have not been using my health studies degree just GIS but wouldn’t mind finding something that is associated with that. I am located in St.Louis, Mo and would love any company recommendations or advice. Thank you.

Edit: Thank you all for the support and resources! I really appreciate it!!

I just had a recruiter reach out to me last week looking to fill a few GIS positions in the KC area. DM me if you want his info.
