Coming Out of Rest Mode: Sustainable Tech for the Long Game
You've been meaning to fix your systems. Rebuild something. Start fresh. And maybe — like me — you spent your rest period actually resting instead.
This is the season kickoff for the Pythoness Programmer 2026 active season, and we're opening it the only way that makes sense: by talking honestly about what sustainable tech actually looks like for neurodivergent brains that don't run linearly, don't have unlimited energy, and are done pretending 100% is always available.
We'll talk about the 50% model — why momentum in the right direction beats a perfect system you can't maintain — and what to carry into the season ahead. Q&A throughout. Come as you are.
This is for you if: You're neurodivergent, chronically ill, or just exhausted by tech systems that demand more than you have. You keep hitting the same walls. You're ready to stop blaming yourself for struggling inside systems that were never built for your brain.
What to expect: Casual, judgment-free conversation. Brief slideshow. Tarot pull to open. Q&A throughout. ~90 minutes.
Free. Live on YouTube. Register on Luma to get reminders and stay up to date on future events and get the Pythoness Perspective weekly insights.
