The Art Of Meaningful Work

34. Tired of Your 9-to-5? Build Your Own Dream Job - Founder of Chic Geek, Kylie Toh


Listen Later

In the second “talking to millennials” series, we have Kylie Toh on the other side of the microphone. She is the founder of The Chic Geek - a non-profit organization that helps women transition into technical careers, and learn to be more comfortable in the tech community.

 

Kylie wanted a job that makes a difference. And she didn’t find it after university. A few jobs, and career changes later - she decided to make her passion project into her full time career. She now works with a small team of volunteers organizing events and workshops for women in tech and entrepreneurship.

 

She is also a millennial. A driven, passionate, young woman who is clear on her values. This interview will give you another insight into a new generation of entrepreneurs. Young people who are pursuing their passions and building their own dream jobs.

 

You can find Kylie at http://www.thechicgeek.ca/ or on Twitter at: https://twitter.com/kylietoh 

 

I am also giving away a copy of “The Dip” by Seth Godin. I bought two copies by accident, and now someone gets to win one. It’s a book about becoming “best in the world” by quitting the wrong things at the right time, and sticking with the right things. To enter, just send me a tweet @ebarbaric - and let me know what you are up to.

 

What projects are you working on, a great book you read recently, or if there was something that helped you from the podcast.
