2025 is not the year to settle in your career!
Hey reader,
Let's get real about what's happening in Tech right now. 2025 started with a mess; more layoffs, Meta's bizarre policy shifts, and suddenly deciding "masculine energy" is the way to go. It feels like we’re on a backwards timeline.
I've been talking to many brilliant women in our community, and what I'm hearing isn't surprising. Women feel unsupported in their careers, have fewer chances to grow and workplaces feel unsafe. News headlines like these are the final nudge many of you needed to make that move you've been thinking about for months.
I’ve been there myself and I have to say it’s a powerful moment when you realise you’ve outgrown a company you once loved. And while Tech has been going through its identity crisis, you've been going through your own transformation. You've grown. Your vision for your career has expanded. And that restless feeling is your inner voice telling you it's time for more.
So you’ve started taking action. After all, you're not one to just sit with that feeling, right? You’ve probably been putting in the hours on your job search (or feeling guilty that you're not), but something isn't clicking. You're spending your evenings scanning LinkedIn and applying to random roles after long days of giving your all at work, without results. And even though you’re still delivering at work, your job search keeps falling to the bottom of your priority list. Meanwhile, you're watching opportunities pass by while doing the same things over and over, hoping for different results.
I’m here to tell you that even though some companies are stuck in the past, others are creating the future we want to see. They're building cultures where your voice and perspective matter, where your ambition isn’t toned down but celebrated!
