📣 Announcement, how to find a job you love, and landing jobs in big tech

In partnership with

Many of you have seen my journey from quitting big tech to entrepreneurship, growing this newsletter, and doing all sorts of stuff (like becoming a Business Insider Contributor!)

Originally, I created this newsletter to talk all things project/program management and leveling up in our careers. 

While I’m now making a living serving this audience (and this is still a HUGE passion of mine), I felt limited in sharing content that only caters to a specific audience.

That’s why I decided to rebrand and call this “Jean’s Newsletter”.

It’s not sexy, but it feels like me.

I want to lead by example and show the process of building and sometimes failing in public.

By doing this, I can be my most authentic self and find my spark in creating the best content because there is more value in learning about someone’s evolution and lessons across all topics. Let’s face it, you can 99% google anything.

Reflecting on 2024 (my highlight reel), I realized I am multi-passionate, and there’s more to life than making money and helping people land jobs. 

I want to leave a lasting impact by touching your heart with lived stories and lessons (and also give you actionable tips in career, business, and life). It’s about quality > quantity. 

So, I hope you continue to be part of this 17,000+ community. If not, that’s completely okay too. You can unsubscribe below (and thank you for joining me thus far). 

Now that I got that out, here are a few highlights from the past week 🙂
