Hey look, it’s a bonus-ode! We sent our demo to a bunch of friends, and they sent us back, like, a zillion questions. So we thought we’d answer a few on air — and then ask you a question of our own.

Does it alienate potential clients if I’m tweeting a lot about sexual harassment in tech? Do I care?

Show notes

(We’ve got a full transcript, too.)

How many bottles of wine does it take to answer your mail? Technically none, but it’s more fun this way.

In this week’s mailbag, we talk about:

  • The, uh, pleasures of Pennsylvania’s state-run wine and spirits stores.
  • What it means to do “big” things, and the reasons women often minimize their accomplishments (it ain’t all imposter syndrome, folks).
  • Whether this podcast is business or pleasure (it’s BOTH, dammit).
  • Why the Instant Pot is “all game no shame.”
  • What growth and career progression look like when your job’s not a standard 9-to-5.
  • The personal, the professional, and the ramifications of tweeting with reckless abandon.
  • Karen McGrane’s “Give a crap. Don’t give a fuck.” inspired Sara to get more vulnerable in her writing.
  • The fact that Katel’s a CEO. Just sayin’.

Thanks as always to our friends The Diaphone for the use of our theme song, Maths, off the album of the same name!

Just a bunch of cool, carefree women pretending not to be cold on a roofdeck in 20°F weather.

No, You Go is a weekly podcast about being ambitious, building a career that won’t make you miserable, and finding friends who’ll high-five you along the way. Hosted by Jenn Lukas, Katel LeDu, and Sara Wachter-Boettcher. Produced by EDITAUDIO. Made with ❤ in Philadelphia.
