Introducing: By Young Professionals For Young Professionals

Developing the map to Middle Earth that every young professional needs

Welcome!

If you’re seeing this, you’re early! Thanks for even clicking this seemingly random newsletter. Your support means the world to me!

Why this random newsletter?

My mission is to make this the premier source of news & practical advice for young professionals who want to know what is actually going on.

Not what some large corporation with a bunch of red tape wants you to believe, but rather, the reality of the world around us and how you can navigate it.

Specifically, this newsletter is a resource that is not tied to some sponsorship or salary that would otherwise censor or call into question the integrity of what’s said here.

Instead, these stories come from folks just like you and me who are experiencing the real world today and are sharing their reality as they are going through it so you can avoid the pitfalls of the real world.

Why me?

I’m not anyone special. I don’t have “10, 20, 30+ years of experience in ABC position of XYZ industry”. In fact, I barely have any professional experience at all…

…which is why I think I’m the right person for the job.

In my limited time in the real world I’ve found that, if you get too far entrenched into the system, you become numb to the issues going on every day. It feels like you can’t make a concerted effort to fix the inherent problems.

Throughout college and my short career, I have established a network of young professionals that I chat with on a daily basis. Many of these folks tell me what is actually going on in their careers likely because they know me to be authentic and transparent.

What I’ve noticed is that these people desperately want to share their wisdom with you, but run the risk of losing their job, a potential promotion, or worse if they do.

Though I have experienced the real world and the corporate bureaucracy that comes along with it, I’m not someone who is deeply tied to the system. I’m not bound to a company or a sponsor (via NDAs, compensation, etc.) which gives me the freedom to speak freely about what actually matters.

Why sign up?

I want to share the best tactics, strategies, & stories for young professionals that I possibly can without charging them a dime. Students and recent grads shouldn’t have to pray that the advice they get from a $150/hour “career coach” will actually help.

This newsletter is everything I wish I had going into the working world.

At the end of the day I believe that something like this, a community for all of us to anonymously share personal experiences of our professional lives, needs to exist.
