LinkedIn Post by “Jared B., Leading Enterprise + Growth CS @ Postman” Today marks Day 1 of homelessness for me. I packed a pretty minimal stack of crap into a few bags and left. For how long? Who knows. A year, maybe more. Where am I going? A bunch of places. One every few months until I'm done. Why? To mandate absolute focus on a very small number of things (Postman included), fortify my network with coworkers and old/ new faces, force minimalism, and cattle-prod my brain. How am I going to afford it? By renting out my house to cover Airbnbs. Sure, it was planned months in advance. There was prep work. I'm not just blasting off into the ether. But still. This could be a terrible idea, but it could also be genius — we'll find out. Wish me luck.
