Victoria here, Girlboss’ executive editor. 👋 |
One of the best parts of my job is supporting woman-owned businesses, so I had THE most fun scouring the internet for the best woman-owned AAPI brands to support all year round. From trendy earrings to Pinterest-worthy home decor, and yes, even sustainable toothpaste, consider this your permission slip to do a little shopping. 🛒 |
Other stuff the Girlboss team is yapping about on Slack: |

Pucker Up, Buttercup 💋 |
Want lips so plump and juicy you’ll start getting lip filler allegations? 😉 |
MUTHA’s new Pucker Up Lip Plump is a high-shine, cushiony gloss infused with a lip-enhancing peptide to help lips look visibly plumper, smoother, and hydrated—without any sting or stickiness. |
It comes in three universally flattering shades—Almond Mom, Not So Vanilla, and Talk Cherry To Me—and looks equally gorgeous on its own or layered over your favorite lip liner. 💄 |
Consider your summer lip combo handled! |

"Should I Hire a Career Coach or Just Use AI?" |
The dilemma: “I am navigating a career pivot and don’t know where to begin. My friends say I should hire a coach, but if I need to save some money, can’t I just use AI to do the same things?” |
The experts: Laura Sheehan, associate director of graduate coaching at Georgetown University’s Walsh School of Foreign Service (learn more about Pivot Coaching with Laura), and Jenny Blake, author of Pivot: The Only Move That Matters Is Your Next One and host of the podcast, Pivot with Jenny Blake. |
So, you’re going through a career pivot and don’t know where to start. Hiring a coach sounds helpful, but hella expensive. Using AI sounds convenient, but… very complicated. |
Maybe you’re worried about privacy. Maybe the environmental impact is a dealbreaker. Maybe you simply don’t want a chatbot weighing in on your career crisis. Fair! |
But for anyone navigating a career pivot on a tight budget, the question is worth asking: where can AI actually help—and where do you still need a living, breathing human in your corner? |
🤖 When to use AI: It’s a shame-free starting space to process what you want out of your career. It can help you brainstorm roles and companies, draft resumes or cover letters, practice for mock interviews, or simply serve as a low-cost tool that’s available whenever you need it. |
🤝 When to invest in a live coach: Your AI chat momentum has stalled, you’re facing an emotional block or identity crisis, you’re making a high-stakes pivot with real financial risk, you want a specialist with relevant experience and connections, or you need accountability from someone who will notice when you start procrastinating your own goals. |
So, should you hire a coach or use AI? |
The real answer: maybe both—but not for the same things. |
