How & Why Gatekeep Yourself
I loved this tweet so much that I sat down and brainstormed how to gatekeep myself. ✨💋🍷
This is something that has been on my mind since entering the business world and representing our family business at events, in negotiations and meetings.
As a naive 20-something, I had to make a conscious effort to learn not to share too much about myself and family.
Even if I had a row with my sibling that same morning, at the afternoon industry mixer I'll only talk about how harmoniously we work together.
People in business, as well as any acquaintances, are not your friends. Most people you encounter daily as a young woman don't have your best interests in mind.
Here are the minor details you can share with anyone that seem personal but don't reveal anything significant about your life:
Favorite foods: Mentioning your favorite snack, dessert, or a specific dish you enjoy.
Music preferences: Sharing a song or artist you’re currently listening to.
Pet peeves: Mentioning small things that annoy you, like loud chewing or slow internet.
Daily routines: Talking about how you like your coffee or a morning ritual like reading the news.
Hobbies: Discussing a hobby you’re interested in, like gardening, knitting, or collecting something simple.
TV shows/movies: Mentioning the show or movie you’re currently watching or have recently enjoyed.
Childhood memories: Sharing a funny or light story from your childhood that doesn’t reveal much about your personal life.
Weather preferences: Talking about how you prefer rainy days to sunny ones, or vice versa.
Travel dreams: Mentioning a place you’d like to visit one day, without giving away any travel plans.
Favorite color: Sharing your favorite color or type of clothing you like to wear.
These details create the illusion of being open without revealing anything that could be used to deeply understand or analyze your life.
Gatekeep yourself, stay classy. 🎀🪞🩰🦢🕯️
How to Subtly Push Back in a Negative Job Interview
My inspiration for this career guide is a hostile job interview a few years back. I fumbled it because I was unprepared.
At the time, I was taking a break from the family business (I've since returned full-time), going out in the world and doing my own thing.
I met this business owner at a gala. I had already been aware of the company's reputation as one of the best in their field. We hit it off immediately. It turned out they were looking for a freelancer with my exact skillset for an ongoing project.
I went in for an interview a few days later. I tailored my presentation to their company and needs, as I usually do.
I made an effort to prepare. Overall, I expected smooth sailing as I had already made a good impression at the event. I was armed with tons of relevant experience, skills, and portfolio.
Long story short, the owner was absent that day. I was interviewed by other senior staff who, much to my surprise, went for the jugular: a stress interview.
The problem was that we were discussing a freelance project, not a permanent position with the company.
In that context, the stress interview technique was misguided at best. It showed me that they didn't understand the freelance relationship and had unrealistic expectations. Working with this client would likely be a nightmare.
Freelancers have other options, and we are looking for clear, professional, and mutually respectful interactions.
That was definitely not the case.
I was just trying to get a feel for the project, but the interviewers seemed determined to neg me.
I was angry at myself for fumbling that interview.
Not because they didn't choose me for the project. The interview was a huge red flag 🚩, so I was no longer interested in working with them anyway.
No, I disappointed myself by being powerless, not knowing how to push back in a professional way.
I was clueless as to how to defend myself without burning bridges. The latter is relevant because I might eventually have to deal with that company again in our family business.
I vowed to myself that the next time this happens (because it will), I will be prepared. So I brainstormed some sentences to flip the script when it's all stick and no carrot.
💬 1. Ask Direct Questions
"I’m sensing there are some concerns here. Could you share what specific qualities or experiences you’re looking for that you feel I might not meet?"
Translation: Let’s see if you can back up your negativity with something concrete.
💬 2. Highlight Their Approach
"I’ve noticed this interview has focused a lot on challenges and potential negatives. Is there a particular reason for that?"
Translation: Why so serious? Let’s balance this conversation out a bit.
💬 3. Turn the Question Around
If they hit you with something overly harsh, try, "That’s an interesting perspective. How does your team typically handle situations like this?"
Translation: Let’s talk about how you guys deal with these issues. I’m curious.
💬 4. Reframe the Situation
"It sounds like this project has a lot of potential challenges. What support does the team offer to ensure success?"
Translation: If you’re so worried, how about telling me how you plan to help?
💬 5. Emphasize Your Professional Standards
"I always strive to maintain a high standard of communication and professionalism in my work. What’s the typical communication style within your team?"
Translation: Let’s make sure we’re on the same page when it comes to professionalism.
💬 6. Use Silence Strategically
After a particularly harsh question, pause before responding. Let the silence do the talking.
Translation: Silence can be louder than words—let them sit with their negativity for a moment.
💬 7. Seek Clarification on Their Concerns
"It seems like there are some strong concerns about this role. Could you clarify what the biggest risks you see in bringing someone on for this project are?"
Translation: Spell out your concerns. Let’s see if they’re really justified.
💬 8. Politely Challenge Assumptions
"I’m curious about the assumptions behind that question. Could you elaborate on what led you to ask that?"
Translation: What’s the real reason you’re grilling me here?
💬 9. Redirect to Your Strengths
"I appreciate the focus on potential challenges. However, I’d love to highlight how my previous experience with [specific example] directly aligns with this role."
Translation: Let’s get back to what I bring to the table.
💬 10. Exit Gracefully
"It seems like there may be a disconnect in expectations. I believe it’s important for both parties to feel positive about a collaboration. Perhaps it’s best if we reconsider if this is the right fit."
Translation: I have options. If you don’t see my value, I’m out.
Use these techniques wisely, and you’ll not only navigate tough interviews with grace, but you might even leave the interviewer rethinking their approach.
After all, your career is all about knowing your worth and choosing who you want to work with. ✨
What advice would you give to someone struggling to find their path in their 30s?
Off the top of my head ...
Make a realistic assessment of yourself.
Your personal pros and cons. You need to center what you're good at, but you also need to pursue difficult goals and projects that you are not yet good at. Otherwise you'll never improve or learn anything new.
Let your childhood dreams guide you.
I wanted to be a writer as a little girl. Writing is now a big part of my job, but child me had creative writing in mind, so I now pursue this too in my spare time and I feel fulfilled.
Be decisive and move fast.
Timing is everything. When you make a decision, you need to execute as soon as possible, preferably immediately. If you don't, in a few weeks or months you'll cool down on the idea. Your circumstances will have changed, potential collaborators will get swept up in other stuff, etc. You'll give up and never do it. So just do it asap.

Check the “career” tag
I’ve recently received a ton of questions on career growth, promotions, and “unblocking” your career when you feel stuck so I’ve put together a general framework for how I’ve moved up in my career and into leadership positions so quickly and at such a young age. This is applicable to all industries from art to science to business to academia. In no particular order:
1. Identify the decision maker(s)
Who’s calling the shots in this place? This is a simple analysis of power dynamics in your organization. Some questions to consider:
Who assigns the quantity and type of work you receive?
Who evaluates the quality of your work?
Who’s in charge of writing your performance review?
How often are you evaluated?
Who makes the final decision on whether or not you get promoted?
In most organizations, this person is your direct manager and indirectly your skip level (your manager’s manager) which is why it’s imperative you have a strong relationship with them. The decision maker(s) are the stakeholders you need to manage the closest.
To get the most out of your relationship with decision makers:
Schedule regular 1:1 meetings with your direct manager and skip level. Make sure you understand their needs, respond accordingly to their requests, and prioritize your work based on their guidance.
Ask for feedback regularly. Focus on the areas you can improve and less on the things you’re doing well. Human beings naturally gravitate towards praise and away from criticism because praise feels good and criticism feels icky but you need to fight this tendency with all your might because it’s your flaws that will hold back your career– not your strengths. You don’t want to be blindsided come performance review time when you could’ve caught the problem early, fixed it, and succeeded. You don’t want to lose time.
Perform at the next level while in your current level. Many people refuse to take on more work from the next level unless they get a promotion, but I’ve done the exact opposite– I take on more work from the next level before a promotion because it demonstrates that I can do it. If you’re a graphic designer who creates graphics, then ask what a senior graphic designer does and request those responsibilities. You can make a better case for promotion if you’re currently operating at the next level because it removes any doubts that you can do the job and it minimizes risks to the organization that you may fail. If your manager somehow doesn’t see your value despite taking on more work, then you can leave the company with next level experience under your belt and negotiate a promotion and hefty raise in your next role.
Note: If you have an awful relationship with your direct manager, then your options are to: 1) talk to your direct manager and mend the relationship 2) transfer to another team with a manager you actually get along with and who likes you or 3) leave the company. If your direct manager dislikes you, then there’s a high chance your career in that role is dead in the water. Trying to fight your direct manager is like trying to fight your teacher or professor– they’ll just slap you with a bad grade, screw up your academic transcript, and go along their merry way with no negative consequences to themselves. Only you’ll get screwed.
2. Understand performance metrics
What’s important to the organization? This to understand what the organization defines as success. Some questions to consider:
What are the expectations of your role AKA what are you supposed to be doing?
What are you being evaluated on AKA what are they looking at?
What is their definition of “good performance” and what is their definition of “bad performance?”
In most organizations, there are called OKRs (objective key results) and KPIs (key performance indicators) that you 100% need to be aware of. An OKR is the goal, while a KPI is the metric that measures how well we’re moving towards the goal. For example, if an OKR is “lose 10 pounds in 2 months,” then a KPI is “I am losing 2 pounds per week, I am on track to lose 10 pounds in 2 months.” It could be anything from “sell from cars” for a car dealership to “build more products” for a tech company to “make fewer medical errors” for a hospital to “design more homes” for an architecture firm.
To understand performance metrics:
Know your organizational OKRs and KPIs. If you don’t have a clue– get one. Ask someone, usually your direct manager. “What are our goals for this quarter and for the year? Where do we want to be by the end of the year? What can I work on that will help us get there?”
Ensure the work you’re doing feeds directly into those metrics and goals. Why? Because your leaders’ performance are being evaluated based on achieving those OKRs and KPIs which makes them very important to the people who have a direct influence on your career trajectory. If it’s important to your leaders, it’s important to you. If you can help your leaders become successful, then they’ll see your value and they’ll fight to keep you around. If they’re willing to fight to keep you around, there’s a strong case for you to be promoted and compensated well. Align yourself to those goals.
Note: If your personal interests (what you want to do) don’t align to the organization’s goals (what the organization wants to do), then your options are to 1) be high and powerful enough to change those goals 2) compromise your interests to move up in your career or 3) leave and find another job. If you want to bake cupcakes but the organization wants to make sushi, then you need to either convince the organization to bake cupcakes or you need to suck it up and make sushi or you need to leave and find another organization that wants to bake cupcakes.
3. Develop and market your personal brand
This is the one most people screw up. This is a critical step to build your reputation and market your skills to colleagues and leaders. Some questions to consider:
What skills are you good at and known for in your organization?
Who knows that you’re good at those skills?
Who knows what you’ve achieved with those skills?
What can you do to make more people know about your skills and achievements?
Most people miss this step because they mistakenly think that “a job well done speaks for itself.” No, it doesn’t– you need to speak for it. This is a mistake I commonly see made by introverts, women, minorities, and people from more collectivist cultures (East Asia, parts of Europe, etc.) where self-promotion is awkward, uncomfortable, and/or can be frowned upon. In America, you need to market yourself and you need to do it often. Speak up. You must advocate for yourself at all times.
To market yourself and develop your personal brand:
Develop a pocket skill. Meaning, be very good at something, anything, and be better at it than other people. For me, that was leadership, strategy, and client management. I’m very good at leading projects, bringing order to chaos, managing difficult personalities, and achieving excellent outcomes in catastrophic/disaster scenarios. I’ve developed a sterling reputation in my industry for this and I’ve pulled off ballsy projects across Asia, North America, and Europe to prove it. For my colleague, he’s a data analysis wizard: SQL, Python, Excel, Tableau– you name it and he can do it. For my other colleague, he’s a product expert who can design, launch, and manage a product with his eyes closed. What’s your pocket skill? Remember that you don’t need to be the best, you just need to be better than the average person.
Aim for projects that have a senior audience (senior leaders, C-suite executives, large accounts) because they’ll have huge impact on your career. Remember: if it’s important to your leaders, it’s beneficial to your career. Ask to contribute to highly visibly and highly impactful projects even if you’re not leading them. If you can help with an analysis here or there, write an update from time to time, and talk to a few people a few hours per week, then you’re a contributor and your name will be attached to the final product.
Send updates on your work to important stakeholders (clients, bosses, colleagues) to give them visibility into what you’re doing. I never go a single week without someone important knowing what I’m working on whether that’s an email update, a weekly meeting, or a casual conversation. Talk about what you’re doing: talk about it in meetings, talk about it at lunch, talk about it on a train, talk about it on a plane, talk about it over green eggs and ham, Sam I Am. At no point should anyone ever look at you and think to themselves: “What are they working on and what the hell do we pay them for?”
Mentor junior staff and colleagues on a specific topic, skill, or area. This establishes yourself as an “expert” to colleagues and helps expand your network. At Google, I teach internal classes on business psychology, project management, and management consulting (strategic thinking). I’ve met tons of senior leaders in other organizations like engineering and marketing who’ve become part of my network and regularly seek my advice on these topics. They learn from me and I learn from them.
Get involved with internal activities and groups. Join employee resource/affinity groups (LGBTQ employee groups, Women in Tech, etc.) and get involved in recruiting and onboarding. These will expand your network, increase visibility, and give you insight into how hiring and recruiting work which is important for when you’re job hunting.
4. Get professional mentor(s)
At this point, it’s like beating a dead horse but I’ll say it again and again until Tumblr shuts down its servers: get quality mentors. This is not optional, it’s mandatory. To find a mentor, consider the following questions:
Who is currently in a role senior to you that you want to have in the future?
Who has a background/career journey similar to yours?
Who is advancing quickly in their career?
Note: People are more likely to agree to mentor those they share a lot of similarities with. This includes similar career goals (ex: you both want to become neurosurgeons), similar academic backgrounds (ex: you both attended the same university or had the same major), similar ethnic backgrounds (ex: you’re both from the same country or area of the world, you both speak the same languages), etc. This is why networking is critical to success. You’re more likely to get a “yes” from someone you know than a random stranger so the more people you know the more potential mentors you have.
Mentoring has been extensively covered in my blog: Search “mentors” for more posts.
5. Leave if there’s no path forward
Self-explanatory, but regularly evaluate your career trajectory to make sure you’re not going down the wrong path or that you’re stuck in a bad situation. Staying in a job that goes nowhere is like patching holes on a sinking ship– you’re only delaying the inevitable and you’re wasting precious time and energy while doing it.
To evaluate if there’s no path forward, some questions to consider:
What growth opportunities exist for you? Are there any positions that exist above where you’re currently at? For example, if you’re currently a banana peeler, is there a senior banana peeler role available? Do you even want to be a senior banana peeler? Always keep your eye on the next level and if that next level doesn’t exist then it’s time to leave.
Is your direct manager on your side? This is related to #1. If they don’t, you need to change managers or leave the organization. If your manager has no power or has fallen out of favor with senior leaders, this is another red flag to leave because they won’t be able to fight for you to get great projects and to get promoted.
Is the company doing well? Self-explanatory. If the company isn’t doing well, there’s a high chance you’ll get laid off and you never want to go down with a sinking ship. It’s not your company, it’s not your family’s company, so move on if you notice that things are getting bad very quickly. Signs of a sinking company include: poor financial performance, cancelled projects, senior leaders quitting, negative media coverage, reduced employee benefits/perks, etc.
To avoid becoming “stuck”:
Keep your resume and skills updated. Keep your finger on the pulse of your industry. What’s hot right now? What companies are doing well? What skills are in high demand? Right now during the pandemic, gaming and media companies like Netflix, Hulu, Unity, Nintendo, and Sony are hot because people are at home and they’re consuming tons of entertainment. What are these companies hiring for? What are their needs? Do you have the skills they want? If not, how can you get them? Revisit these questions every 6 months.
Interview with different companies even if you’re not looking to leave your current job. You don’t need to change jobs or commit to anything, but you do need to keep your interviewing skills fresh. One of the biggest mistakes people make is they only look for jobs when they’re miserable in their current one. This makes them desperate to accept anything they’re offered and causes them to make errors in judgment. It’s important to keep looking even if you’re happy in your current role. Consider this: What if your perfect job is looking for someone during a time when you’re not looking for a new job? You’d miss your chance. Interview even if you’re happy at your current job, see what else is out there, know your market value (check your salary), and keep your interview skills sharp.

From "fangirling" to "expertise" 🎓📽️
Help - in need of some sage advice!
So I just landed my dream job - YAY! It’s an 18-month contract overseas in a beautiful country! HOWEVER the pay is low, and it does not fall within the realm of a conventional/“stable” career. But it’s been a dream of mine to get this job.
The thing is -
being the over-thinker that I am - I can’t help but think about the after. “What will I do after this period of my life doing this job” (however long it may be)? It doesn’t fall anywhere close to what my bachelor’s degree is and doesn’t promise any stable/continual career after this period. While there are ways to be lucrative during this period, I’m not sure if I am capable of doing so!
My end goal
is to be able to settle down back home, but with how the world is going it seems like taking this job, while fun and a dream, will not catapult me towards stability and a career that I can continue back home…
But, this job has been my dream for as long as I can remember.
I’ve cried over it some many times and now it’s happening. But committing to it is such a gamble l and it is terrifying.
If anybody out there has any advice, your first could really use it right now…
“Now tell me how did all my dreams turn to nightmares;
How did I lose it when I was right there?”
Can someone give me advice please? What to do if your dreams are slipping out of your fingers right before your own eyes, and it’s your own fault?
Certification Pending...
This is such a depressing thing to see when you have studied for what essentially amounts to three months straight.
Sadly, I only have myself to blame considering I let my background check slip. Now I have to get in touch with people to have my work email unlocked.
It has been a long and winding road already…
No one at grad school said anything about additional certification…
The program was geared towards preparing student to teach adults, not kids.
Then again, when I asked the ‘teaching career’ guru if I should get certified in general education or special education…she said ‘no’.
Do yourself a favor, if you are going to specialize in ESL, special education, or any other area…go for additional certification in general education. There are more special education jobs than there are ESL (in my State, anyway) and there is WAY more general education jobs than there are both ESL and special education combined.
Get it while you are still in college!
It will open up three times as many doors for you!
Start in general education, get that experience, then work towards the subject or kinds of students you actually want to teach.
Get your foot in the door!
Currently pursuing a BS in astrophysics.
It's hard. It's cool and fascinating and fun to see all the connections and actually have direct applications for a lot of physics that you learn. And there is a lot to learn. And lots of different little things that pop up that you have to remember, and lots of homework to do. I am mostly motivated at this point by my confidence that yes, I do enjoy this (space) and I do want to understand these concepts, even when it's hard to do so.
If you haven't started it yet, don't worry. Just start. Try it out. Remember you enjoy it. Remember to do your homework (important in college to give you the foundation you need, especially here). But try it out. Don't be stuck by fear. Try it out for a few semesters, a couple of early astronomy and physics classes. See how you enjoy those, if continuing is what you want. It gets more interesting as it gets harder.
In terms of where it will lead you I can't say. I'm still not sure of that myself with my own career. But it's been worth it so far. It will give you those abilities though, working at NASA if that ends up being what you want, learning more about the reaches and extent of the universe.
need some help from the scientists of tumblr
I love physics and I love space and when I grow up I want to get a job that allows me to study the reaches of our universe (and also I've always wanted to work at NASA because that field sounds epic cool)
BUT
I don't know if I want to spend years of my life studying one of the hardest fields on earth just for me possibly not to enjoy it
So I'm calling on you dear tumblr to help me decide if this is truly the career path for me. If not I'll just go into the arts like everyone else I know :3
