July 7: Women in Tech Weekly Issue 66

In Partnership with my Free Habit Formation Worksheet

How is it July already? Is it just me or is this year zooming past us? It feels like the weirdest, shortest and yet the longest year ever!

I hope you’re ready for yet another issue of Women in Tech Weekly for your dose of Tuesday inspiration – because we have some great milestones to celebrate and amazing resources to explore.

If you’d like to submit anything for next week’s issue, please do so using the submission form at the bottom of this post.

Celebrations 🥂🎉

The company Eden works for, Lemonade, went public last week!

“When I started at Lemonade 3+ years ago, I was the 8th software engineer and only female on the team. Now we’re almost 60 engineers and 400 people in the company worldwide. This week, we had our IPO on the New York Stock Exchange and it was a huge accomplishment for everyone in the company!”
