QUOTABLES:
“I was tired of trying to figure it out - why someone didn't want me. I was tired of that, and tired of carrying that burden. And so I had to let it go. I had to figure out how to let that go and keep moving forward and really start to realize that they're missing out on me.”
“If we could just step in those rooms and just be grateful for the access. That could probably help change the way you feel in terms of confidence.”

I just listened to Episode 22, Being an Ambitious Woman with Tiffany Aliche and was so impressed. The time just flew by as I enjoyed the solid career advice Kimberly and Tiffany shared. Documenting your accomplishments was one of the ideas that I thought was especially good -- because if YOU don't know what you accomplished and what your big wins are, you cannot possibly expect others to remember. I look forward to tuning in again.
Kimberly’s content is billed as being for women and people of color. As a white male, I feel that her content is universally applicable. As a person that benefited from privilege I appreciate having access to this point of view. I feel that being able to get an understanding of these topics from her perspective helps me better approach these topics with my employees.I hope she keeps producing new episodes and publishing books.
Kimberly gives excellent advice about how to reflect on where you’d like to go in your career and act strategically to grow with intention & integrity. Highly recommend not only this podcast for the great tips and interviews but also her book.
Short and easily ingestible coaching and informational knowledge. Kimberly tells relatable stories and gives great career advice!
