6:45 - Speaker 1: Harpreet - Me, myself and I. Dealing with self doubt during remote work.
Harpreet is a User Researcher based in East London. She took the leap into being a freelancer during the pandemic after working in scale ups.
Working remotely is great but sometimes it’s easy for self doubt to creep in and you can lose track of how you’re doing. In this talk, I’ll share a simple thing I’ve started doing to help me feel happier and more confident at work. And then you’ll try it for yourself.

7:25 - Speaker 3: Rina - Invest in your Personal Branding
Rina Takikawa, User Experience Designer at Qathena, Co-founder at Pawsitive, Former Ballerina
As a Ballerina career changer, I started my journey into tech thinking how I did not have any “transferable skills.” But because of this struggle, I had to emphasize what I already have and put myself out there. And I did this with what I like to call my personal brand. In this talk, we will create a game plan as to how you can start creating your own personal brand mind map.
- Personal Branding 101
- How my experience in ballet and pivoting to tech has helped me realize what my true values and missions are
- How I keep myself accountable for my happiness and sanity
