⌚️ Still Ticking
Turn workplace patterns into professional power: Scripts and strategies for women ready to transform reliability into recognition and compensation.
Hey, I'm Kara.
Thanks for being here.
What Actually Happens Here:
📬 Every Sunday: You'll get actionable insights on the workplace patterns that keep competent women stuck - with scripts and strategies to break free.
One specific pattern that undermines women's advancement
Research-backed solutions that convert reliability into recognition and compensation
Exact scripts to transform your next workplace interaction
Look for the ⌚️ emoji in your inbox every Sunday evening—it's my signal that it's time to reset your professional positioning for the week ahead.
This Newsletter Is For You If:
You've mastered managing up while watching less qualified colleagues get promoted
You've perfected the art of making others comfortable at the expense of your own advancement
You spend Sunday nights prepping for Monday meetings (that men walk into cold)
You're still editing that email from two hours ago because the tone isn't quite right
You're tired of being called "reliable" instead of "visionary"
In other words: you've done everything "right" and still find yourself undervalued. It's not you—it's the code. And we can crack it together.
A little background on me:
🚀 I'm 58, former school principal, current EdTech leader, and perpetual translator of the workplace dynamics no one taught us in school.
🚀 My pivot to tech at 50 was a masterclass in watching these patterns play out in real time (nothing like being the only woman in the room with hot flashes to crystallize these lessons 🥴)
🚀 What I've learned: the very skills that made us indispensable often keep us invisible and underpaid. This newsletter changes that equation.
Dive right into my best content:

This is for women who are ready to:
Stop being everyone's work therapist and start being seen as the strategic leader you are
Trade exhaustive preparation for effective positioning
Transform being needed into being valued (and compensated accordingly)
Use your emotional intelligence as leverage rather than service
No more "lean in" platitudes or advice to "just be more confident." Just practical tools for navigating systems that weren't designed for our success.
I'm glad you're here.
