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:

Reply "CALL" for a quick chat if you're interested.

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
