I love getting messages in my LI inbox. Check out this one I got recently:

“Hi Jena! Just wanted to let you know that I signed an offer at a tech company about two weeks ago after being in education + nonprofit for 10 years! Got a 60% salary increase and it took me under 3 months to do so. Your podcast played a PIVOTAL role in my transition. Wanted to shower you with appreciation. Your podcast is everything. Keep pushing – you’re influencing a lot of women.”
