What We Do
At Desk People, we believe in redefining the traditional work-life balance. Our daily newsletter is dedicated to promoting the concept of work/life integration (WLI) - a holistic approach that aims to harmonize personal and professional spheres rather than viewing them as separate and possibly conflicting entities.
We strive to help you find common ground between your work and personal life, discovering opportunities for compromise and synergy. We aim to enhance your experience in both realms, fostering a sense of completeness and well-being.
Through Desk People, we provide valuable information, resources, and inspiration to guide you on this journey toward a balanced life. We firmly believe in the feasibility of this balance, and we are here to help you achieve it.

Founder's note:
Welcome to Desk People (deskpeople.com)! I'm John Diep, the Founder of Desk People. I created this newsletter with a clear mission - to assist individuals in achieving a harmonious balance between their work and personal lives.
With two decades of industry experience, I have embarked on a multifaceted journey, assuming various roles throughout my career. These encompass programming, product management, marketing, and content creation, allowing me the privilege of working with a diverse range of organizations.
From nimble startups (StartEngine.com) to renowned giants like Raytheon Aerospace, Hilton, Riot Games, Amazon, Hitachi, Toyota, First American, Capital Group, MySpace.com, and ICANN.org, I have gained invaluable insights into the demands and complexities of modern work-life. This diverse background has shaped me into a well-rounded professional equipped with the knowledge and expertise to thrive in today's dynamic environment.
But despite the varying industries, roles, and responsibilities, one thing remained constant - the struggle to balance work and personal life. I know firsthand the toll that this imbalance can take on an individual's mental, physical, and emotional well-being.
That's why I created Desk People - to provide support for individuals who are facing similar challenges. My goal is to educate, inspire, and empower our readers to redefine their approach to work and life.
The concept of work/life integration is more than just a buzzword - it's a way of life that can bring fulfillment, satisfaction, and overall happiness. And with Desk People by your side, you can start your journey towards achieving this balance today.
So, welcome to our community. We invite you to join us on this journey towards creating a more harmonious and fulfilling life. Let's redefine the traditional work-life balance together!
Keep an eye out for our daily newsletters, packed with valuable insights, tips, resources, and inspiring stories. Together, we can make work and life integration a reality.
