Head First with Darian

I'm Darian! Software engineer, speaker, and someone who had to build systems just to stay whole. This is where I think out loud about the tools, the hard stuff, and the process of becoming who you're supposed to be.

After New York
Content note: this episode briefly touches on domestic abuse.I walked off that stage in New York and knew something had shifted.The mic wasn't working. I had technical issues within the first five minutes. And I belted it from my chest.This episode is the one I've been building toward: what actually happened at Women Who Code, what the room felt like, and the feedback someone gave me afterward that I'm still sitting with. Plus: what it looks like to be a woman in tech who was trained to be smaller.

Before New York
In episode one I said the Women Who Code talk hadn't started. June 2nd, I'm on a stage in New York City. This episode is what happened in between, how I built the talk, what prep actually looks like when the tech you're talking about won't sit still, and why getting selected still felt like a scam at first.

Cognitive Overhead
You know the feeling. Everything's overwhelming. Everything's harsher than it should be. You can't explain it, you just know something's off — and by 3-4pm you're done.It has a name: cognitive overhead. And the reason your system keeps failing isn't you.This episode I'm breaking down the difference between overhead and overload, why most productivity frameworks weren't built for a variable brain, and the specific things I actually use, including a morning check-in that offloads the connective thinking before my day starts.

Before I Was Ready
Two speaking gigs. One podcast. Zero prior experience with any of it. In this first episode I'm talking about what it actually looked like to say yes before I was ready — HomerCon, Women Who Code, and what prep looks like when you're building the plane while you fly it.
