    Laughing with Lillian, the Legend

    Lillian and I met in 2019 when we both joined Twilio in Atlanta. We were partnered together as AE + SE, and there a friendship bloomed that still stands today, where we find ourselves AE + SE once again. Tune in to learn about Lillian's unique journey to becoming a Sales (Solution) Engineer, her passion for travel, how getting laid off impacted her, and more!

    Holy moly it's May of 2025, how wild right?! Thank you all who are still listening / watching after 3 years of (random) episodes, I'm incredibly honored and grateful.

    Sales Rockstar + Super Mom

    Such an honor to be joined by Leah McGhee, a sales legend who also experienced being laid off while out on maternity leave (and 6 weeks postpartum!). Although we could have chatted for hours, these 30 minutes focus on Leah's sales career (which is full of success), motherhood journey, and her layoff experience. Tune in today!

    My Mat Leave Mistakes

    I'm very aware I've been lucky enough to work for tech companies in Corporate America during my two pregnancies. I'm grateful for having the ability to take time off while getting paid. That said, I had NO idea how to go about it and made a handful of (work) mistakes during my first pregnancy leading to many tears, missed opportunities, and more. As always, this is my personal experience & point of view, being shared not to blame anyone but instead to empower others!

    Brown Corporate Tech Girls from the Midwest

    In this episode I'm joined by the genuine, passionate Upasana Roy who is a raising AE all-star at Twilio Segment. In this episode we chat about her college and post-college work experiences, what led her to Sales, and how it was growing up as a brown girl in the midwest! I especially love her story around self-identifying after having the ability to live in America and India. Check out her LinkedIn profile: https://www.linkedin.com/in/upasana-roy/
