Episode notes

I only allow myself to get notifications from directly my team or the projects that I'm involved in. So for slack, most companies have like hundreds of channels. Depending on how active your company is a lot of people will get notifications all day long. But this has definitely worked for me. It's a lot less stressful than responding like after every single message. And I just do it at the start at the end of my day.

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.
