DevelopHer

Yesterday, we faced a sobering moment in the tech community with the closure of Women Who Code, an organization that championed the advancement of women in tech and deeply influenced my own career path. Having had the privilege to speak at their events early in my career, I can personally attest to the vital role they played in empowering women in this field.

Sustaining such organizations is a monumental challenge. As the founder of DevelopHer, I understand these struggles intimately. DevelopHer still stands today because I balance running it with working a full-time job, which allows me to support both myself and our mission. This dual commitment underscores the crucial need for community support and solid infrastructure to empower women in their tech careers.

In light of Women Who Code’s closure, I urge each woman in tech to join us in continuing to forge paths forward. DevelopHer is here to support your career growth through connection, education, and advocacy. To honor the spirit of what Women Who Code accomplished, I am offering a one-week free trial to all its former members. 🌟

Moreover, this is a call to action for companies: we cannot empower women in tech without empowering the organizations that empower them. Invest in the future of tech by supporting organizations like DevelopHer not just with interest, but with your dollars. Your support is crucial in building a sustainable ecosystem where women in tech can thrive. 🚀

Let's keep the legacy alive. Join DevelopHer, support us, and help ensure a vibrant future for women in tech. 💪

Pictures from 7 years ago today when I started my speaking career at the Women Who Code DFW meetup. Eerie timing.

Whether it's a promotion, higher salary, or simply more confidence, DevelopHers know that patience and consistency pays off.

It's hard I know! My dad constantly reminds me that "Rome wasn't built in a day."

And, it's true. When I reflect on the progress I've made, it wasn't instantaneous success.

Instead, it was small seeds planted over time that blossomed into incredible results!

Are you waiting for someone to come along, tap you on the shoulder, and show you the way? If so, you might be waiting for a long time.

The difference between 'A' players and the rest of the pack is that 'A' players go out and get the change they want for themselves.

If you want change, you have to be willing to invest in yourself. Invest in the change you want.

If you won't invest in yourself, why should anyone else invest in you?

Over the course of my career, I've invested tens of thousands of dollars in myself and my career to get the change I wanted.

My only regret looking back is that I didn't invest in myself sooner!

Because I've invested in myself, I've leapfrogged peers, accomplished incredible feats and more than quintupled my base salary! If that's not a return on my investment, I don't know what is!

So, what are you doing to do to invest in yourself?!
