Thanks for joining us for another Glass Session!

This week, we're joined by Jessica Noon, founder of Daybreak Ideas. Jessica works with founders and organizations on culture transformation, org design, leadership strategy, and hiring - helping businesses build workplaces where people can actually thrive.

The conversation explores:

• Why consistent and humane leadership matters more than ever
• Common hiring mistakes founders make as they scale
• How to identify your “flow zone” at work
• Practical advice for creating opportunities instead of waiting for them
• How to pitch yourself into roles that don’t exist yet
• Networking strategies for introverts and relationship-builders
• Why authentic connection is one of the highest ROI career investments you can make

Jessica also shares a powerful perspective on building a career and life around “both, not either” - challenging the idea that people have to choose between ambition, fulfillment, stability, creativity, flexibility, or personal priorities.
