An evidence journal is underrated. Write down your wins. Projects. Bugs solved. Talks. Feedback. Hard things you got through. Self-doubt has a short memory. Watch the full conversation on YouTube: @roxyrodbeck

@britheetechie's biggest hurdle in tech: Trusting herself. Even after proving she can handle hard things, new challenges can still bring up doubt. That is real. Watch the full conversation on YouTube: @roxyrodbeck

@britheetechie took the traditional CS path into tech. Degree. Engineering job. Senior engineer. And still, imposter syndrome shows up. Confidence is not automatic. Watch the full conversation on YouTube: @roxyrodbeck

The best beginner advice is often not glamorous. Learn your tools. Build small things. Ask questions. Find people who help you keep going. Watch the full conversation on YouTube: @roxyrodbeck

Rachael’s She Ships episode had coding, blockchain, Django, Linux, AI, motherhood, pets, and ghost hunting. That is what made it work. People are not just their tech stack. Watch the full conversation on YouTube: @roxyrodbeck

You do not need to rebuild your whole life overnight to learn tech. A chapter. A small project. A weekly call. A few terminal commands. Keep returning to the work. Watch the full conversation on YouTube: @roxyrodbeck

Tech careers are rarely built in clean little bubbles. They happen around family, ADHD, pets, bad days, side projects, and real life. Watch the full conversation on YouTube: @roxyrodbeck

@rzagramonte and Roxy talked about how few women are often in the room. And how much harder it can be to find Latina women in tech too. Representation changes how the room feels. Watch the full conversation on YouTube: @roxyrodbeck

Old career identities can become comfortable traps. “I’m self-employed.” “I’m a teacher.” “I’m not that kind of person.” Sometimes the next step needs a new story. Watch the full conversation on YouTube: @roxyrodbeck

@eveporcello almost talked herself out of joining Vercel because her identity was tied to being self-employed. Sometimes the next opportunity asks you to update who you think you are. Watch the full conversation on YouTube: @roxyrodbeck

A good tech community is a place for the messy middle. The broken project. The confusing tool. The tiny win nobody else gets. That support matters. Watch the full conversation on YouTube: @roxyrodbeck

Community does not have to be huge. @kittytreats talked about a small group of women who meet weekly, talk tech, and make space for life too. That consistency matters. Watch the full conversation on YouTube: @roxyrodbeck

@kittytreats brought her daughter into the process. Cat drawings for a game. A Raspberry Pi. Python. Linux. Sometimes the best way to explain the work is to share it. Watch the full conversation on YouTube: @roxyrodbeck

A useful trick for feeling behind: Keep a “later list.” Write down tools you hear about. Do not abandon what you are learning right now. Watch the full conversation on YouTube: @roxyrodbeck

Feeling behind is common in tech. Rachael Brady said she had to stop believing she was behind on everything. That mindset shift matters. Watch the full conversation on YouTube: @roxyrodbeck

@rzagramonte almost left a promotion because she was bored. She stayed. That role helped move her closer to tech. Sometimes boredom shows you the next step. Watch the full conversation on YouTube: @roxyrodbeck

The word “just” does a lot of quiet damage. “I just did this.” “I just helped with that.” Sometimes confidence starts with describing your work accurately. Watch the full conversation on YouTube: @roxyrodbeck

Progress is hard to see while you are inside it. That is why @rzagramonte kept a dev log. Sometimes you need proof that you are not standing still. Watch the full conversation on YouTube: @roxyrodbeck

The tutorial treadmill is real. You watch videos, feel productive, then freeze when the guide is gone. Rachael’s advice: pick one structured resource and build as you go. Watch the full conversation with @kittytreats on YouTube: @roxyrodbeck
