This is a pure fun post. While I'm not thrilled with FIFA these days, I can't ignore an event as massive as the World Cup. To make all 104 matches a little more interesting, I'm running a Fantasy Fútbol pool with friends and friends of friends.

If you'd like to join, send me a DM.

We're already at 20 people, and the more the merrier!

Time to revive this thing! Unfortunately not the party type, at least not this time. Maybe soon. But for now ... figure this might be helpful for LAM members!

I, Giovanni Dubois, recently joined the group of those laid off. I spent part of Sunday pondering about my next career move and decided to use AI to help me brainstorm. What started as a simple prompt evolved to creating my very own Career Operating System (Career OS) and Career Executive Coach.

One of the biggest surprises?
AI helped me identify patterns across 20 years of my career that I had never clearly articulated myself. It showed me what gives me energy, what drains me, what kinds of opportunities I thrive in, and why some career decisions worked better than others.

The process was so surprisingly powerful that I decided to share it.
So if you are interested, I'll do a free virtual workshop on my learnings. Something I wish I had throughout my career.

In essence, you'll end up with a tool to help you navigate your career regardless at what stage of life you're in and can use it for:

• Considering a career move
• Preparing for a promotion
• Exploring a career change
• Job searching
• Preparing for interviews
• Evaluating competing offers
• Or simply trying to better understand your professional story

My goal is simple: help people use AI not just to write resumes, but to gain clarity about who they are, what makes them unique, and where they should go next.

Hopefully you can join!

This workshop is not about resumes. It's about understanding who you are professionally, what makes you valuable, and how AI can help you build a clearer path…

Money is still one of the biggest taboos in our lives.

Even among high-earning professionals, it’s often the topic people avoid the most.

I want to change that.

Over the past few years, I’ve had many conversations with friends about money. Smart, successful people who still felt ashamed, guilty, or frustrated when it came to managing it.

Growing up as a first-generation immigrant, I didn’t know the ropes of money management either. I’ve made plenty of mistakes along the way. Friends kept encouraging me to share what I had learned more openly.

So together with my friend Amalia Cardenas, we started a small community for first-generation wealth builders (or anyone really) who want to feel more confident with their money.

We created a simple 14-day challenge where we cover practical tactics, but more importantly the mindset shifts that help you take ownership of your hard-earned income.

One participant shared afterward:

“I feel much more confident and calm about my money now.”

We’ve already run two cohorts and the feedback has been incredibly encouraging.

We’re launching the third cohort on March 9.

If this sounds interesting to you, feel free to DM me

It's been a while, how's everyone doing after 10 years?!?

Who's ready for Copa America?

Who still parties?

And who's moved away from the Bay?
