Hey ,

As we approach the year-end holidays, it’s the perfect time to celebrate everything you’ve accomplished. Whether you’re wrapping up big projects, enjoying well-earned vacation time, or simply taking a moment to breathe, we hope you’ll embrace the joy and rest this season brings.

For the women in this community, the hustle can feel endless, but stepping away is just as important as stepping up. Taking time for yourself—whether it’s spent with family and friends, exploring a new passion, or indulging in a well-deserved break—fuels your creativity, strengthens your resilience, and prepares you for the opportunities ahead.

This season is also about connection, and we’re so grateful for this incredible community. Together, we’ve shared knowledge, celebrated wins, and supported each other through challenges. The strength of our network is a reminder that while the tech world can feel overwhelming, we’re never alone when we have each other.

As you rest, recharge, and reflect on the past year, know that we’re here to support you in the year to come. Whether through career coaching, inspiring events, or simply the camaraderie of like-minded women, Tech Ladies will continue to be a resource and a community for growth, connection, and empowerment.

From all of us at Tech Ladies, we wish you a happy holiday season and a peaceful start to the new year. Take this time for yourself—you’ve earned it!

​This will be an unconventional (fun) take on how to untangle yourself from perfectionist tendencies and build a brand that feels like YOU - whether you want to accelerate your career in tech or totally change course.

​FYI this is not going to be your typical marketing branding talk. There will be no talk about colors and websites. I come from an engineering + founder background so expect some hacky, never-heard-before takes.

​When you feel like you’re out of power, the best thing you can do is take some. We’re living in a world where capitalism rules, and you need a paycheck, even if it feels like the world’s burning. While we’re all waiting on aliens to save us, you might as well be getting paid—and trust me, don’t leave a single dollar on the table, because money is power.

​If you’re tired of being underpaid, overlooked, or told to “wait your turn,” this class is your turning point. It’s about claiming your value, demanding what you deserve, and never playing small again. We’ll break down the art of negotiation so you can walk into any room, own your worth, and command your future.

​Join us for Tech Ladies Talk Live: How to Navigate Building a Career as an Immigrant, featuring Aizada Marat, Founder & CEO of Alma.
