Remember God First, Always and Keep Going

We Thank You for your donations as well as your insight.

Hello and Welcome!

I'm Co-Pilot KC, creator of The Ultimate Journey — a career platform built to help real people land the right role without the guesswork.

I build in public, and right now we're in Alpha — a 5-seat micro-cohort running on ThisPageDoesNotExist12345.com — stress-testing every feature before opening the dock to the world.

What changed for me: Eventually I realized I was spending too much time building and not enough time proving that the concept even works. I was drifting back into the same cycle that originally left me stuck — so Thank YOU for the wake-up call.

The idea: If you look at your resume, there is a story there. I believe that if we align our experience with current events and use AI intentionally, we can see what our work and accomplishments actually did for humanity. Through my journey, I learned that accountability is the only way to bridge the gap — it's up to you to defeat the version of you that keeps pulling you backward instead of forward. Now it's my turn to teach anyone who wants to listen.

A starting exercise: Listen to that soft voice inside of you. Think about where you began, then re-route your way through your entire journey again. Take your time — if there's a screen on, cut it off and try again. If your mind isn't clear the words won't be either, start drawing what you are visualizing.

Notice what you enjoyed and what you disliked. Did you smile? What about? Write That Thought Down. That might lead you to a starting job title — or show you that the market isn't searching for that title right now, which is why it's important to find a job description that truly fits your experience.

Tools I use: Perplexity with Claude and Notion (Command+R), Supabase, Umami, Netlify, IONOS, Beehiiv, Base44, GitHub, and Chrome. Shout out to Constant Contact, WaveBrowser, Tonkotsu, Me.Do, BPM Supreme, Direct Music Service, SendGrid, Spotify, Apple Music, SPARK, CalendarJet, and ATSBOOST.org, TurboTax.

Outside of that, I enjoy spending quality time with my family and discovering cool new creative tools, knowledgeable resources, architecture, art, music, music instruments, supplies, and vibe coding until the credits say GO OUTSIDE AND GET SOME exercise.

Quick note for your journey — if you haven't already, get familiar with your personal email inbox and organize it. I am serious about this. You'll understand yourself better when you clear out all of the unorganized junk that you just labeled spam several years ago. Create labels and folders for what you actually want to see, and drop everything else into a "To Unsubscribe" folder so you can rescue any emails that catch your eye. I will be testing Warmy.io to help warm up and protect your inbox.

The good news? You can absolutely consolidate. If your folders are fragmented across dozens of job boards and company-specific threads, here's the move — merge them into five clean buckets:

Job Boards — ZipRecruiter, Indeed, LinkedIn, Glassdoor, Monster, Lensa, Jobot, Huntr, and all similar alerts in one place

Applications — Company-specific folders (CVS Health, Endava, Brown & Brown, etc.) all live here

Finance — Acorns, Credit Karma, PayPal, Venmo, TurboTax, US Bank, and any financial service

Tools & AI — Canva, Notion, Claude, Make, Zapier, Runway AI, FlutterFlow, and your full tech stack

Reading List — FYI, To Review, Read Later, Daily Briefing, and Productivity Reports

My Ride: I've set up folders for Recruiters, Applications Received, Applications Rejected (Keep it and Keep Going), Offers, Taxes, Benefits, and Interviews to keep everything structured.

If you find leads that catch your eye, save those to "Good Leads" and share them with us. Everything else is a "Bad Lead" that may end up in "To Unsubscribe." Last thing, monitor your space usage and subscriptions. Come back and visit us here for new deals and product tips.
