Organized Chaos

What does it mean to be successful? Is it a job title, a big paycheck a ton of responsibility at work? How often have you found yourself running after that next promotion or job without feeling like you’ve ever “made it”. And when you do make it, you barely celebrate before you’re off looking for the next jump up the career ladder because nothing is ever enough? Let’s talk about how you can have your cake and eat it too.

I’m a recovering girl boss and couldn’t be happier. I like to think of the girl boss movement as “hustle culture painted in lipgloss”. What started as a way to define ambitious, young women focused on their career turned into an excuse to shame other women who don’t want to run around stressed, sleep deprived and working 80 hour weeks. Those days are over. I girlbossed way too close to the sun and got burnt, big time. Learn from my mistakes.

🪩 the rules are made up. you can change them.

Welcome to my brutally honest career Q&A as a woman in tech. A few weeks ago, I asked you to submit your questions about managing your mental health at work.
Wow did you deliver…
​How do you manage your personal life and career all at once?
​Have you ever doubted your career path/role?
​My boss talks down to me: what do I do?
​Is crying ever ok at work?
These were just the tip of the iceberg. In honor of World Mental Health Day, I recorded this week’s episode because, though I pride myself on being a very strong, independent woman - it’s unrealistic to think that my grief, emotions, and trauma don’t impact how I show up in life.

Amazon just ended their remote working policy. This is bad for everyone. I will always prioritize a career that let’s me work from home. You should too. If you’re trying to understand how you can talk to your leaders about the benefits of working from home and what you can do to find balance in your own life - tune in.
