  027 – LIFE (& FINANCE) IN THE EMERGENCY ROOM: Building Wealth, Saving Lives & Balancing Motherhood as an ER Physician Assistant

  Aug 6, 202649 min

  This week, I'm joined by Alicia, a physician’s assistant working in emergency medicine in the Pacific Northwest. We talk about what first drew her to PA school and the ER, what a typical shift actually looks like, and the realities of working nights before jumping back into daytime life with a family. Alicia also shares how growing up with older brothers, playing sports, and moving across the country for school and work shaped her career and life. We chat through what she brings (and wears!) to work, coordinating childcare with a partner who also works in healthcare, and building a life that leaves room for both financial security and travel. Beyond medicine, Alicia has built a platform around investing, financial freedom, and intentional spending after realizing many of her highly educated coworkers didn't feel confident navigating retirement accounts, employee benefits, or planning for the future. Whether you're interested in a career in healthcare, curious about emergency medicine, or looking to be more intentional with your money, this episode is for you!

  ICYMI: Add This Job Inspo To Your Summer Playlist

  Jul 22, 202616 min

  Summer tends to be a season when routines change—maybe you're traveling, spending more time outside (or finally catching up on podcasts you've had saved for months). So instead of introducing someone new today (I know!! we're all set to be back on our interview grind next week), we’re revisiting a handful of conversations that I think are especially great summer listens. Whether you're brand new here or you've missed a few episodes along the way, these are five conversations I'd recommend starting with, depending on your vibe for the summer. Tune in for inspo if: …if you’re binging anything with east coast beachy vibes, …if you’ve caught the travel bug this summer, …if you’re feeling energized to start (or work on) a side hustle, …if you’re reorganizing your house, …OR if you just want a dreamy escape. See you next week with our next interview!

  GRAD SCHOOL AT GEORGETOWN: How I Navigated Parenthood, Work & Going Back to School

  Jul 8, 202635 min

  Taking a quick break from interviews this week because…after three years, countless late nights, changing careers, starting a business, raising a toddler and announcing my second pregnancy—I finally graduated from Georgetown with my MBA! Two of the questions I've been asked most since finishing are, “What are your plans now?” and, “How did you do grad school as a (super cute, fun, young, amazing, insert flattering adjective here) mom?” 😉 So this week, I'm taking a break from interviewing someone else to answer those questions—because a big part of why I started this podcast was to figure out my next steps while I was in school. In this solo episode, I'm reflecting on going back to school for a graduate program, the strategies that helped me balance classes with work and parenthood, and the lessons I wish I'd known before I started. From setting realistic expectations and communicating with loved ones, to finding routines that actually work, these are the practical tips that helped me along the way. Whether you're single or a parent considering grad school, starting a new program this fall, or simply trying to juggle multiple priorities in a busy season of life, I hope this episode gives you a realistic picture of what's ahead—and reminds you that sometimes "good enough" really is enough. 🔗 Website: 100jobsproject.com 📸 IG: https://www.instagram.com/100jobsproject

  025 - BUILDING PRODUCTS IN BIG TECH: A Day in the Life of a Product Manager

  Jul 2, 202645 min

  How does a Product Manager at Microsoft land a job, and what does their day to day actually look like? In this episode, I sit down with Noopur to talk about her journey from growing up in India and Shanghai to building a career in product management at Microsoft. After attending college and starting her career in India, she moved to the U.S. to pursue a master's degree at Duke University, where she landed an internship—and eventually a full-time role. We talk about what any job as a product manager entails, her career progression, and what it’s like working in a hybrid environment with teams all around the world. Noopur also shares how structures her workdays, balances life outside the office through running, cooking, reading and more—and (as usual!) gives us a peek inside her work bag. We also chat about how she maintains long distance relationships with loved ones living across the glove. Whether you're interested in product management, Big Tech, or simply curious about what a career as a product manager looks like day-to-day, this episode offers an honest look inside the role—and the life that comes with it.
