Alright crew! Time to make this place even more valuable. From January, we’re launching a monthly leaderboard challenge: Whoever is the most active, helpful and engaged member each month wins a free 40-minute coaching session with me. That session can fix whatever you need: CV, portfolio, LinkedIn, job search, confidence… anything. We’ve got a few weeks left of December, so consider this the warm-up. So time to start getting involved now! Minimum requirement: You must hit a certain number of interactions/comments to be eligible. (I’ll announce the exact number in January.) Let’s build a proper community that shows up for each other and rewards it. Forward is forward. 👊🔥

Doesn’t matter how big or small. A win is: • sending an application • rewriting a CV line • updating LinkedIn • adding a screenshot to your project • reaching out to someone new • even just getting out of bed and trying again Progress is progress. Drop ONE win below, something you’re proud of, even if it feels tiny. This community celebrates movement, not perfection.

Happy Friday! Thought I’d kick this weekend off with some positive vibes and shift gears from the job hunt for a moment to ask everyone what game they’re about to play next. Usually when we talk about video games, we often talk about our current favourites, if not a game we just started playing. For me, the game up next is Yakuza Zero Directors Cut. Street brawls and powerful abilities called “heat actions”, this is a good ol’classic for me which just keeps getting better with more games in the series as well as remasters. So tell me, what’s next for you? What made you go for it? Is it new? Old? Remaster? Or even remake? Give us an answer in the comments and have a great weekend everyone!
