Hey Reader,

​
I’m excited to welcome you to the first edition of my newsletter, Rise and Shine!

​
I chose "Rise and Shine" because it embodies two powerful ideas – starting your day with energy and purpose and rising to shine in your career. I’m here to support you in making strides toward your goals with confidence, ambition, and purpose.

​
Today, I'm sharing the THRIVE Method, which has not only transformed my career but also the careers of dozens of other women in tech. Whether you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or just ready for a change, I designed the THRIVE Method to guide you every step of the way toward a more fulfilling and successful career.

​
What is the THRIVE Method?

​
THRIVE is an acronym that stands for:

​
​Target: Get crystal clear on the job you desire, understand your career priorities and values, and identify the environment in which you'll flourish.

Highlight: Recognize the value, accomplishments, experience, and results you bring to the table, and learn how to showcase these on your CV and LinkedIn profile.

Relate: Build your target company list and connect with the right people to get referrals.

Impress: Clearly present your value at various interview stages and leave a lasting impression on all interviewers.

Validate: Negotiate for the salary and benefits you deserve confidently.

Excellence: Learn how to hit the ground running in your new job and excel from day one.

​
Why Does the THRIVE Method Work?

​
The THRIVE Method is about more than just landing any job - it's about finding the right next step that aligns with your authentic desires and values. It's a holistic approach that helps you:

​

• Gain clarity on your career goals.
