"I've come to realize that sometimes, the most important question we can ask—especially in our careers—is, 'How are you doing?' It's a gentle reminder to check in with ourselves and others."
Hi Superstars,
It's been a minute! I've been deeply immersed in launching my new venture, CareerswithMary. This has been a labor of love, a long time coming, and I’m beyond excited to finally share it with you.
Over the years, I’ve come to realize that sometimes, the most important question we can ask—especially in our careers—is, “How are you really doing?” This simple question can make a big difference in our well-being. Because, it’s not just about how your job is going, but how you’re feeling about your work, your growth, and your future. Taking a moment to reflect on whether your career is bringing you joy, aligning with your values, and moving you toward your goals can be incredibly powerful. Also, It’s a gentle reminder to pause, reassess, and make the necessary adjustments to stay on the path that’s right for you and make you feel good.
Personally, my passion for career development began early. I started by realizing that I feel fulfilled when helping people craft resumés—a small step that eventually led to the birth of InclusivelyRemote. What began as just a means for fulfillment grew into a platform dedicated to breaking down traditional work barriers, connecting job seekers with meaningful remote opportunities, and helping organizations find top talent. Through InclusivelyRemote, we’ve posted daily remote job listings for everyone—from students seeking internships to seasoned professionals. The platform also offers valuable resources like articles, blog posts, and social media videos, guiding many through the often-confusing career journey.
The Vision Behind CareerswithMary
A single career can transform lives, open doors to influential networks, and lead you to extraordinary opportunities. Personally, I’ve experienced this transformation. At 23, I’m building not just one, but two businesses. And this wouldn’t have been possible if not for the careers I took on in the past.
Reflecting on my journey, I’ve learned that nothing is impossible. During my first week as an intern at Deloitte, a colleague invited me to lunch and shared a piece of advice that changed everything: “The best way to enjoy your internship and make people give you tasks is to be indispensable—make them need you.” That simple advice carried me through my internship to the point where partners often couldn’t distinguish me from full-time employees.
Later on, I discovered the power of storytelling through my experiences with job rejections. Many of you who have come to love InclusivelyRemote probably first connected with my stories of rejection. Those experiences—both the highs and the lows—have shaped who I am today. They’ve fueled my commitment to helping others turn their career dreams into reality—not just any reality, but one that’s inspiring and impactful.
