THIS WEEK IN JOBS

Hello from the Sam and Claire (your Local Boys) back with your weekly inside scoop on news and jobs in web3.

There's an article in today's edition on gender parity in business. As two women, writing under Local Boys, we feel particularly called to explore this topic with you. Have you experienced gender bias? If so, how have you handled it?

Next week, we'll be sharing some communication tips that we've seen work in a variety of tough businesses settings, and will also feature some gems from you. Speak up 🌻

The People have Spoken:

REAL LIFE TALK

Crypto news is making us tired. We want to talk about real lifeβ€”you, us, this. This quote came up this week and we couldn't not share:

"You're not off-track. There is no way to be. Your life is a continuous unfolding of yourself. It is shaped and guided by the world outside of you, and how you interpret and respond to that world. It's an ongoing exploration of who you are and how you might be. Life does not begin when everything is perfect. It does not start when you think you're worthy. It's happening right now. You are not anywhere but where you are supposed to be, because there is nowhere else to be. The idea that you might have to earn your way into the life that is already yours is an illusion."

― Brianna Wiest, The Pivot Year
