In this episode, Yebu Ji speaks with Caitlyn Lubas, the product manager at Inkitt. Caitlyn shares her experiences of traveling to 70 countries across 7 continents during her time at NYU, as well as how she navigated challenging career decisions and uncertainty in the years after graduation.

Since graduating from NYU Stern in 2020, Caitlyn Lubas has followed her passions and refused to settle for anything less than fulfillment and personal growth, resulting in a career path that has meandered through the many facets of the creator economy. After starting out in product roles at Instagram and TikTok, she left big tech and joined an entrepreneurship co-living community to work on a creator economy travel startup idea. Along the way, she also published a book called You Are Where You Go about her travels to 70 countries and all 7 continents during college, and has spoken at schools across the country about the intersection of travel and personal development. Most recently, Caitlyn has enjoyed working as a Product Manager at startups in the business of concert live streaming and digital book publishing, while building her personal brand in the travel space through hosting group trips.
