Lucy went from making K-pop fan art to overseeing Cybertruck, Optimus and Robotaxi at Tesla… and recently quit to travel the world. In this episode we find out what a Technical Program Manager actually does (hint: it&#39;s a lot of JIRA and convincing engineers to talk to each other), why soft skills might matter more than technical ones, and her surprisingly simple trick for figuring out what job actually fits you.

What does a chemical engineer actually do day to day? And what on earth is a Chief of Staff? Sebastian Esquivel has done both, so he&#39;s the perfect person to ask.

What do you do when you&#39;ve done everything right –MIT degree, dream startup, dream job– and you&#39;re still not happy? Wendy quit engineering to become a full-time artist and hasn&#39;t looked back.
