Episode notes

While you were a software engineer, I saw that you switched between three different jobs over the course of your career. Can you tell me about some of the things you learned or had to learn from doing those switches? Yeah, sure. It sounds like switching between the different software engineering jobs made you learn way, way more than if you had just stayed in one for the entire time.

Rachel Madrigal is a Software Engineer turned product manager at Twingate and part-time YouTuber who creates vlog and Obsidian content. She’s also a friend because we meet weekly for our YouTube accountability meetings. This week, we talked about Rachel's work as a software engineer and experience switching to product management, how notetaking is helping her in both careers, and her experience becoming a more minimalist Obsidian user.
