1:1 Mentoring with Nadia

Heey, I'm Nadia. I'm an ex-journalist, a self-taught software engineer, a DevRel, a writer, a founder, a coach, a reader, an immigrant, a traveler, a language learner, a student of history. I'm many things, and I'm all about getting as many experiences as possible and expanding myself in many different ways.

I enjoy helping people succeed in life so I'll be happy to mentor you on any personal or professional topic.

You can learn more about my career on my LinkedIn page and more about my visa coaching on my YouTube channel and my Trustpilot page. I also have a personal Instagram account where I post about things I like.

Here are a few of the topics I know a lot about:

• breaking into software engineering as a non-technical person (I taught myself to code and found a paid full-time job as a software developer in just 9 months)
• building a career in tech (I went from coding a tiny web dev shop in Warsaw to being the only fulltime DevRel at Intercom in London)
• building a personal brand (over 13,000 people follow me online - Twitter, Linkedin, YouTube, newsletter, blog)
• starting and running a service business (I've coached over 400 clients over the last 3 years)
• building and selling a digital product (I've successfully done it with a book and a course)
• sales at a startup (I've led sales at an early stage marketplace startup. These were sales to small businesses so I don't have practical experience with enterprise sales)
• choosing your next country / moving there / adaptation as an immigrant / digital nomading (I've lived in 5 countries mid to long term and spent 5 months nomading in Asia)
• learning languages (I speak 5 languages and am learning my 6th one)
• travel hacks (how I live rent free anywhere I want)
• books (I used to be a prolific reader - up to 100 books a year - before social media melted my brain. I also used to publish a book recommendation newsletter, so I'm happy to talk about reading, choosing or writing books - I self published a memoir).

This is just what's top of mind for me, but you can suggest any other topic (we can talk about several unrelated topics during one session). One rule only: it can't be about UK Global Talent Visa (if you are interested in getting endorsed, please check out my GTV services).
