Excited to host the first next play gathering in Lisbon in September! I love next play because it facilitates serendipity. It's what I wish existed when I took the leap from Google to The Newsroom. We'll bring together a small group of top-notch founders and operators who are openly or secretly exploring what comes next. You may be considering starting a company, joining your next thing, both, or unsure. Sounds like you? Application link is in the comments!

Our first customer was a grandparent who worried they'd die before having the chance to afford a home near their grandkids. He found his home with Roam, and sent us a postcard at Christmas with his grandkids. Join us at Roam - you'll get to viscerally feel the impact you have at work. We're making homeownership 2x more affordable by helping buyers rewind the clock and access low-rate mortgages. There's urgent and massive demand for affordable homeownership, and we're hiring for several roles to advance our mission: 🏃♂️ Sales: You'd be a great fit if you were a former athlete and still have the competitive drive and resilience. We're looking for someone who is determined and loves to talk to customers daily. 🛠️ Eng: We're hiring a full stack engineer to join our lean but mighty team, where you'll get to work with the founding engineers at Opendoor and Square. You'll be a great fit if you value velocity over process and want to ship something daily with high agency. 📣 Marketing: We're hiring a lifecycle marketing manager who is excited to own our CRM infrastructure, which will power us to scale nationwide. You're an excellent fit for this role if you sweat the details and care about delivering an authentic voice to customers. Apply online or ping me / Sarah Ruth Boyer Hendrix for details.

A month ago, I had the chance to talk to one of my favorite people on the planet, the great Ben Lang of global Notion & next play fame, about our early days together working at Notion, the role community played, what it was like to define a brand that would be as truly lovable as the product..... and then what it's like to leave a job you really adore to move onto the next thing. So grateful for the opportunity to reflect on so many favorite moments, and hopefully offer some interesting advice (or at least hard won lessons) along the way. Hope you enjoy! And thank you, Ben! 🎙️⚡️❤️
