WFH Mama Mail

Want to escape the 9 to 5 but don’t want to start a business? This is for you.

Jessica Li | Remote Jobs Coach — Wed, 21 Oct 2026 10:09:36 GMT

I think at one point in everyone’s careers, we get bored of our jobs. Like not bored of our “job”, but we simply don’t want to pursue a 9 to 5 anymore. But what’s the alternative? Start a business? Not everyone wants to be an entrepreneur. Is there a path that’s neither but still pays a modest salary? The solution might surprise you.

📰Why Your Biggest Career Risk Is Relying On A Single Salary

TLDR: Layoffs, a tougher market for new grads and companies reshaping work around AI all point to the same thing: one paycheck from one employer is a shaky foundation.
Sho (one of my fave career creators!) suggests offering your skills directly to small and mid-sized businesses as a fractional consultant, so you have more than one income door. You don’t have to quit your job to start. Even one small client changes how secure you feel, so think about what skill of yours someone would pay for.

📰Want To Reconnect With An Old Professional Contact? Do It

TLDR: That old boss or colleague you’ve been avoiding because “it’s been too long”? Message them.
The piece explains that the awkwardness is mostly in our heads, and they may have been thinking of you too. Reach out the same way you used to talk (usually email), own the gap, mention a shared memory, give a quick update on you, and ask only to reconnect, not for a favour. Then keep in touch so you’re not starting from zero next time. Warm contacts are where a lot of the good jobs hide, besties.

📰The No. 1 Career Habit Getting Job Seekers Hired In 2026

TLDR: The habit that separates people who land jobs from people who give up is perseverance. That doesn’t mean firing off hundreds of identical applications. It means taking the rejection, changing your approach, and coming back the next day.
Longer hiring cycles, ghosting and endless interview rounds are wearing everyone down right now, so the person who stays in the game often wins. The good news? It isn’t a personality trait. You can build it with small, repeatable habits, and the article walks through seven steps.

I found a $300K remote job in Canada and it's in today's free section 👀

Mon, 28 Sep 2026 12:02:01 GMT

Hi career besties,

A few weeks ago I did something that scared me a little; and I’m ready to tell you about it.

I sent a cold LinkedIn DM to an executive at an organization I genuinely wanted to work for. No job posting. No referral. Just a direct, personalized message expressing my interest.

She responded. We set up a virtual chat. It went well, like really well. In two weeks I’m meeting with the rest of her executive team to discuss how I can get involved and in what capacity. Her words: my energy and background were exactly what they’re looking for.

This is the hidden job market in action. And it works.

Every single 1:1 client I’ve worked with has heard me say this: if you want to find a role faster, stop waiting for job postings and start doing strategic outreach. Here’s exactly what I did:

Find an organization you’re genuinely excited about — ideally an SME, not a large enterprise. Get specific about why you want to work there and why you’re a strong fit.
Identify a decision maker on LinkedIn and send a personalized, direct message. Not a template — a real one.
Prepare for the call like it’s an interview. Bring questions, your elevator pitch, your resume, and most importantly — your ask.
Follow up. Reaffirm your interest and include a small “freebie” — a recommendation, an idea, a resource. Proof of your value before they’ve even hired you.

I’m living proof this works. And I can walk you through it step by step in a 60-minute 1:1 session.

📰Your AI interviewer will see you now: How job seekers should navigate the 'jarring' new hiring technology

TLDR: If you’ve hopped on a “screening call” lately and found a bot or avatar on the other end, you are not alone. Nearly two-thirds of job seekers in a Greenhouse survey of 2,950 people say they’ve been interviewed by AI.
It feels weird because there’s no smiling, no nodding, no small talk to warm you up, and that can make nerves worse. Companies are doing this because they’re drowning in applications. So treat it like a real interview: practise your answers out loud, use the job description as your cheat sheet, and don’t wait for the “vibe” to tell you how you’re doing.

📰Job postings for hybrid, remote roles in Canada plummet

TLDR: hybrid job postings in Canada dropped to just 13% of listings in Q2 2026, down from 27% in late 2025 — and fully remote postings fell even harder, from 10% to 3%.
A separate global study (Remitly, 8 million postings, May 2026) puts Canada 9th-lowest out of 30 countries for remote-friendly postings, at 13.7%, behind Mexico’s 20% but still ahead of the US’s 8.4%.
My take: this tracks with what I’m seeing sourcing for you every week — the flexible roles are still out there, they’re just getting harder to find and more competitive once you do. All the more reason to go straight to company career pages instead of waiting on aggregators to surface them.

📰The Predictable Executive Career Arc Is Over

TLDR: Girl, the whole “5-year plan” thing? HBR says it’s dead, and honestly, for the better.
Lynda Gratton argues that between AI shaking up every industry and all of us working longer careers than our parents did, rigid roadmaps just don’t hold up anymore.
Her advice: run small, low-stakes experiments instead of betting everything on one big move, and invest in things that compound: your skills, your relationships, your health, your curiosity.
Basically: stop trying to predict the future and start building things that’ll serve you no matter what it looks like. My favorite way is leveraging social media and turning it into my portfolio…

📰30 Best Stay-at-Home Jobs for Moms & Dads in 2026

TLDR: Okay, this one’s a must-read if you’ve been getting weird texts lately. Writer Brittany Anas kept getting unsolicited texts promising “$600 a day, remote, no experience needed” — and she breaks down exactly why they were fake.
Nearly 50,000 people have reported employment scams to the Better Business Bureau over the last three years, with reports doubling in 2025 alone, so this isn’t rare.
The tells: zero company name, zero job description, a weirdly specific requirement like “must be 22,” and a request to just text back “YES” to get the ball rolling.
The FTC’s rule is the same one I preach to you constantly — you should never have to pay money, deposit a check, or “unlock” your own earnings to get paid for a job. If a remote gig shows up out of nowhere in your texts, screenshot it, delete it, and keep your job search to channels you can actually verify.

Wednesday round up is changing !

Jessica Li | Remote Jobs Coach — Thu, 27 Aug 2026 19:51:48 GMT

Hi besties,

The Wednesday round-up is changing to be on Fridays starting next week. The main reason was because there aren’t enough fresh (new) jobs in between Monday and Wednesday; the larger gap could help me identify more recent opportunities for you.

A secondary reason was because many people are still applying to and looking at the Monday newsletter on Wednesday, so the close cadence can be overwhelming.

See you next Friday for the weekly round up!

Book 1:1 office hours with me. 😊

LinkedIn audit
job search strategy
anything else on your mind!

📰Recruiting Pro of 30 Years: "If I Was Looking for a Job in 2026, I Would Honestly Stop Applying Online

TLDR: J.T. O’Donnell has been in recruiting for three decades, and she says she’s never seen it this bad for job seekers relying on the “apply and pray” method. Her take: online applications are increasingly a black hole, and getting recruited into a role — through visibility, network, and a strong online presence — is quickly becoming the more reliable path. Glassdoor data backs her up: recruiter-sourced hires are up 72% since 2023.
The takeaway isn’t “stop applying” entirely, it’s “stop applying and doing nothing else.” Keep your LinkedIn warm, keep showing up in your industry’s conversations, and treat networking like part of the job search, not an extra credit assignment.

Hi besties,

Can’t believe summer is almost over. I had such as fun weekend showing my friend from Canada around Stockholm!! Now she’s spending the next few weeks with my family and I, and I’m so just overcome with Joy that I get to be with a close friend here.

Those who have moved abroad will understand the sentiments I am explaining, it’s really nice to have someone from home who understands and shares your culture with you, even if it is for a little bit.

At the same time I have been enjoying my 1:1 office hours with many of you, it’s unfathomable how many people are going through the same things:

layoffs despite being at the company for a long time
not sure what to transition to because you possess so many different valuable skills
unsure how to navigate LinkedIn, even though it’s more important than a resume

If you are interested, I still have availability left in August :)

📰Research: How Remote Work Is Narrowing Early-Career Opportunities

TLDR: New research out this week found something a lot of us have felt in our gut: companies are getting pickier about handing remote roles to people who are just starting out. Employers are more willing to take a chance on someone green when there’s a mentor sitting next to them — a lot less willing when that person is just a name on a screen.
If you’re early-career and job hunting remote, your application has to work twice as hard: show you can ramp up fast without hand-holding, and lean on references who can vouch for your follow-through. It’s not fair, but knowing the bias exists means you can plan around it.
