what do you need rn?

Dear XIR –

Lawd jesus, we've hit a milestone!

Letter 11 means this is officially the longest-running newsletter I've ever had 😂

And it’s all because of YOU. Your responses, your engagement, the way you've embraced this weird ass movement we're building together – it fuels me in ways I can't even explain.

So as I'm planning the next 7 newsletters, I want to do something different. Instead of writing based on what I think I know, I want to write directly for YOU.

See, I have about 1000 frameworks swimming in my head.

Crazy stories from the field. Templates that have helped me land deals. Systems I've built from scratch. I could throw all that at you and call it a day.

But that's not how we roll in these XIR streets.

This movement is about US.

It's about YOUR journey at the intersection. And I need to know what would actually move the needle for you right now.

So I'm asking straight up:

In an ideal world, as it relates to XIR and your cross-functional talent, what would help you the most?

Is it:

  • Articulating your value in language that sells?

  • Mapping your intersection to business outcomes?

  • Monetizing your skills through multiple streams?

  • Building systems that support your cross-functional work?

  • Something completely different I haven't even thought of?

The more responses, the more I learn.

And that helps me be intentional with everything I create – both in this newsletter and in the tech platform we're developing.

In the meantime, if you genuinely need help with the articulation, mapping to outcomes, and monetization piece, I would def recommend you sign up for the cohort. It could be really helpful to you.

I don't wanna give too much away but here are just a few things we'll dive into:

Anyway… I promised you from day 1 that I would not fill your inbox with bullshit, and this is my way of continuing to make sure that never happens.

You all are so special to me.

And I need US to win – both in the short-term and the long-term.

Just hit reply and let me know what you need.

Building differently (and forever grateful),

💜 J
