May was full of quiet grit and loud wins. Let’s celebrate the members who kept showing up—for themselves and for each other 💫 @Brittani Ball Landed a role that beautifully ties together her love for music and her degree. But it wasn’t just about the role. She negotiated her way to the top of the salary band—and then some. That confidence? Built by showing up again and again, even when it felt uncertain. @Cheryl Dias Secured a role at Manulife. This wasn’t luck—it was work. She went to every event, reached out, followed up, supported others. She built her opportunity by being visible and being valuable to the people around her. @Mifraz Ghouse Finally broke through after a long job search. The financial pressure was mounting. But he didn’t disappear. He kept engaging. Kept applying. Kept believing. And that consistency paid off—with a role that marks a real turning point. [ANONYMOUS] And then there’s one member (they’ve asked to stay anonymous)... They’re in the final stages of an interview process that could increase their salary by at least $30K. It could even go past $100K. They’ve been showing up day after day—laying the groundwork for this exact moment. Let’s send them some love ❤️ None of these wins happened overnight. But all of them happened because someone refused to give up. If you're still in the middle of it—keep going. Your win might be closer than you think. P.S. Which of these stories hit home for you? Let them know 👇

I'll use this to keep track of things for the week going forward for myself. HackerX items: - Follow up with Loblaw Digital folks met via LinkedIn - Follow up with Manulife folks met via LinkedIn Other items: - decide on trying out GreatFrontEnd or going all in by may 7 - get more information about Obsidi Academy

It's just to throw in the actionable item results for myself.

Hi all! We’re moving today! We were supposed to move yesterday but it got delayed to today. Apologies for the short notice! We’ll resume our weekly calls next week!

Hey everyone! I know I haven’t been as active here as I would have liked, but I’m really happy to finally share some good news. After a long journey, I’ve landed the role I’ve been working so hard toward and honestly, it feels like such a relief. Along the way, I’ve had the chance to get to know so many amazing people in this community. Your support, encouragement, and kindness have truly meant a lot, and I’m incredibly grateful for it. A huge thank you to Izzy. Your constant motivation, encouragement, and belief in me kept me going even on the tough days. You always checked in, pushed me to stay focused, and reminded me of what I’m capable of. I genuinely appreciate everything you’ve done and feel really lucky to have had your support. Thank you all so much
