Guest:
Alicia Sebastien, from Houston, Texas, thrives on change. Skilled in professional and personal rebranding, she navigates the fast-paced tech world easily. Her career journey has seen multiple shifts, from a sudden layoff in the oil & gas sector in August 2019 to a contractual change in the tech industry in November 2022, which inspired her to write the e-book “Better Never Bitter (A Self Help Guide for Job Loss & Transition).” With a background in Environmental Science and experience in Safety Operations and HR, Alicia is currently embracing her third career transformation.

Alongside her role as an HR Information System Specialist, Alicia serves as a part-time career consultant for a global HR firm. She helps candidates from diverse industries, such as insurance, pharmaceuticals, automotive, healthcare, and banking, transition to new opportunities at major companies, including Meta, Microsoft, Amazon, HP, Apple, Intel, JP Morgan Chase, and Wells Fargo.

Alicia is also active in the "Better Never Bitter" networking group in Houston, which focuses on:

• Making charitable contributions quarterly, ideally to grassroots organizations.
• Enhancing professional, financial, and personal well-being by utilizing self-help books and fostering group discussions through local library partnerships.
• Strengthen community ties and promote personal and professional accountability to achieve established goals.

Dedicated to continual learning and community engagement, Alicia leverages her networks to expand her impact and support others in their professional journeys.
