Welcome to The Product Room!
I built this space because I kept having the same conversation. A product manager — smart, experienced, good at their job — telling me they felt stuck. Or isolated. Or like everyone else had it figured out and they were the only one still working it out. They weren't. And neither are you. This is a community for mid-career product people and those stepping into leadership. We'll meet live twice a month. I'll share what's worth your time each week. And this is a place to bring the real question — not the polished one. I've spent 25 years in product and several more as a coach. I know this work from the inside. And I know how much it helps to be in a room with people who get it. So. Tell me. Where are you in your product journey right now — and what's the question you can't quite get out of your head? Start there. I'm listening. Leah.

Types of PMs?
Hi All, I ran across this on LinkedIn this weekend and it got my attention. As a former Technical PM and not a Product Leader...who has been a strategy PM and a growth PM and and and...this made me feel like we are again "pigeon holing" the role. But I'd love to hear your thoughts!?

Sunday is not a pre-Monday.
Can we talk about Sundays for a second? Because if you're in a demanding product role, you know the feeling. That creeping anxiety that starts somewhere around 4pm. The itch to just check Slack. To scan your email. To get ahead of whatever Monday is going to throw at you. I did it for years. I even made a deal with a CEO once that I'd always check my emails on Sunday night so we could "hit the ground running" on Mondays. I'm going to need a minute to apologize to that version of me. 🤣 But what if the creative brain does not run on empty. It runs on rest. On input that has nothing to do with work. On walks and books and bad TV and long lunches and whatever it is that makes you feel like a person again. Sunday is not prep time. Sunday is not a warm-up act. Sunday is yours. No email. No Slack. No quick check on progress. No "just five minutes." None of it. Let yourself actually stop. The job will be there Monday. You'll do it better if you showed up having actually rested. What do you do on Sundays to protect your brain?
