If you enjoy writing code, but find yourself disillusioned in your career, this email course is for you. Whether you are struggling to get code to work or dread just getting to work, I’ve been there—and I believe these insights will help.
I’ve spent nearly two decades learning to build, break, refactor, and share code, while also discovering what I care about most as a software engineer. We’ll use the lens of community, code as a craft, and hard consonants.
In 5 short emails, I’ll share stories and insights from my journey:
- Day 1: Learning to trust the discomfort of not knowing.
- Day 2: Observing excellence and honing your craft.
- Day 3: Seeking purpose and aligning your work with your values.
- Day 4: Treating code as a craft and building for yourself.
- Day 5: Sharing your skills and paying it forward.
Each email ends with a small, actionable challenge to help you reflect and grow at your own pace. I’ll try my hardest (in a non-cringe way) to make you laugh once or twice.
