    You Should Quit Being a Creator | @Tafokints NASA, Esports, Content, Tech

    Thank You to Our Sponsors! ✹ Storyblocks: unlimited stock footage, music, and SFX for creators → https://storyblocks.com/officedrama We've heard time and time again about the burnt out tech employee who quits a stable job to chase the dream. This time we're exploring the reverse! Daniel "Tafo" Lee has lived more careers than I can count on two hands. JPL engineer, coach to Melee god Mang0, Yahoo Esports show host, CLG General Manager, the internet's Tetris teacher, Web3 economist, Andreessen Horowitz, and now, at 37, starting over in big tech. He's no stranger to the creator economy and his honest take on who should actually pursue it might save you five years of your life. In this ep, we talk about: → how he coached a Melee god while working full time at NASA JPL → the ultimatum from his wife that finally made him quit and move to Esports → why 90% of streamers won't make it, and why minimum wage might be the better option → betting on yourself at 37: relearning how to code from scratch in the AI era → and how becoming a dad made him reevaluate the value of his time This episode is for anyone who's ever been told to follow their passion and quietly wondered if that advice is a trap. Tafo is proof that the real flex isn't dying on one hill but maybe knowing when to walk away towards the next one. → Find Tafo: https://www.instagram.com/tafokints https://www.linkedin.com/in/daniellee912 https://x.com/tafokints Submit your Coworker Confessions 👇 https://bit.ly/coworker-confessions If you like what you hear please follow, rate 5 stars on Spotify and Apple Podcasts ⭐️ and leave a comment! 🫶 It's free~ 𝙎𝙊𝘾𝙄𝘼𝙇𝙎 🌸 instagram → https://www.instagram.com/chloe.shih/ OD instagram → https://www.instagram.com/officedrama.pod/ tiktok → https://www.tiktok.com/@chloeshih threads → https://www.threads.net/@chloe.shih linkedin → https://www.linkedin.com/in/chloe-shih/ patreon → https://patreon.com/OfficeDrama ✹ business inquiries: business@colorsofchloe.com See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

    I Quit My Dream Job to Start Over at 32...| @Elevenlabs Head of Partner Marketing, Sophia Noel

    Sophia is one of my best friends, the officiant of my wedding, and one of the most cracked marketers I know. She's led campaigns at Airbnb, Databricks, and ElevenLabs. She won Best Dance Film at the LA Film Awards. She's also going through her biggest plot twist yet: leaving tech to pursue her art. Full time. For good. 🙂‍↕️ In this episode, we talk about: → why AI will never replace storytelling, taste, and human connection → her honest take on the job market, what 20-somethings are getting wrong, and what a great interview actually looks like → how she faced being belittled in by an interim CMO who said they need someone "more senior" when she led the campaign all along This one is for anyone who has done everything right and still felt like they were playing it too safe. Sophia is the most elegant proof I know that the pivot you're scared of might be the one you were always supposed to make. → Find Sophia: https://www.instagram.com/sophianoel_ Submit your Coworker Confessions 👇 https://bit.ly/coworker-confessions If you like what you hear please follow, rate 5 stars on Spotify and Apple Podcasts ⭐️ and leave a comment! 🫶 It's free~ 𝙎𝙊𝘾𝙄𝘼𝙇𝙎 🌸 instagram → https://www.instagram.com/chloe.shih/ OD instagram → https://www.instagram.com/officedrama.pod/ tiktok → https://www.tiktok.com/@chloeshih threads → https://www.threads.net/@chloe.shih linkedin → https://www.linkedin.com/in/chloe-shih/ patreon → https://patreon.com/OfficeDrama ✹ business inquiries: business@colorsofchloe.com See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

    The “Anti-Hustle High Achiever” Mindset | Product Design Manager @Discord, Tobi Bisiriyu

    My old Discord work bestie just got promoted *twice* in one year and I needed to know how he did it without losing himself in the process. Tobi Bisiriyu is a Product Design Manager at Discord and he's one of those rare people who is genuinely great at his job, actually likes it, and still makes work the least interesting thing about him. He cosplays, he goes to anime conventions, he walks one hour every day without exception, and he has a philosophy about life that I think more people in tech need to hear. In this ep, we talk about: → Why looking competent is actually what's holding junior designers back → the "contract you write for yourself" and how to know if you're breaching it → why middle management is actually a "death" trap → say yes to the scary thing...before you talk yourself out of it. → being greedy "with integrity" and why it's good to want it all → and why getting a four in life matters more than getting one at work This episode is for anyone who is good at their job but wonders if there's a version of success that doesn't require you to give everything else up. Tobi is one of the most intentional people I've ever worked with and somehow he got even more thoughtful since we last worked together. → Find Tobi on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tobibisiriyu Submit your Coworker Confessions 👇 https://bit.ly/coworker-confessions If you like what you hear please follow, rate 5 stars on Spotify and Apple Podcasts ⭐️ and leave a comment! 🫶 It's free~ 𝙎𝙊𝘾𝙄𝘼𝙇𝙎 🌸 instagram → https://www.instagram.com/chloe.shih/ OD instagram → https://www.instagram.com/officedrama.pod/ tiktok → https://www.tiktok.com/@chloeshih threads → https://www.threads.net/@chloe.shih linkedin → https://www.linkedin.com/in/chloe-shih/ patreon → https://patreon.com/OfficeDrama ✹ business inquiries: business@colorsofchloe.com See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
