Welcome to The Mindful FIRE Podcast, where we explore living mindfully on the path to financial independence and beyond. I'm your host, Adam Coelho and I'm so glad you're here.

On today's episode, I'm joined by my new friend, Stephanie Nuesi.

Stephanie Nuesi is the founder and CEO of Max Up, a career coaching firm, whose mission is to maximize the potential of future leaders of the nation. She has interned in various top accounting firms, tech companies, and banks in New York city in California.

Stephanie is passionate about career coaching and public speaking. She has given over a hundred workshops and events in seven countries and has been a guest speaker for companies like Wiley, the AICPA, UBS. Stephanie has been featured on The Well, the CPA Journal, Josh Talks USA , and has helped over a thousand students and professionals from all over the world with their company Max Up, where she provides career coaching and professional development strategies and resources to help them land their dream careers. 

Because of her passion in the community she's built around her work she was chosen as a 2019 Forbes under 30 scholar.

Stephanie's mission is to create an impact in the world one person at a time.

In this conversation. Stephanie shares her journey through life in which she was born and raised in the Dominican Republic and moved to the United States at the age of 17, not speaking any English  and was able to navigate the difficulties of adjusting to American society, finding her way into college and ultimately creating her own company, max up a career coaching service.

And Stephanie shares how she's recently landed her dream job at Google as a BOLD finance intern, which is what got her on my radar when I came across her on LinkedIn.

Stephanie also shares her thoughts on building resilience and how to respond to rejection because ultimately when you're applying for jobs and colleges, rejection is part of the game and it's certainly part of life.

Stephanie also shares a lot of really practical advice on how to use LinkedIn as a tool to find jobs and to position yourself as a thought leader. 

I really enjoyed this conversation with my new friend, Stephanie Nuesi, and I hope that you enjoy it as well.
