QUOTABLES:

“I think care culture is really about this idea of wellness and fitness coaches say that for you to be happy, you have to have this product or look like this, right? It's almost it's the reason why people feel like they gotta get in shape before they go to the gym, right?” – Percell Dugger

“There's a lot of joy in my community. There's joy in people, and I want to celebrate that at every chance that I get. And I don't care too much about whether or not you weigh this amount or your genius fits like this. You can love yourself. And more importantly, loving yourself and loving others can have a far greater impact on society than having ‘great abs or nice biceps’ — nobody cares at the end of the day.” – Percell Dugger

Reviews

This podcast came right on time! My fiancé attended a conference & met Kimberly. He immediately told me about her book and her story & I was hooked. I really feel like listening to this podcast and reading her book will truly propel me and many into the next career move. Often times I find podcast that speak solely to quitting your job, but what about us that really enjoy what we do and just want to elevate? Kimberly did THAT! & I’m appreciative.This isn’t a podcast that you listen to in the background, GRAB YOUR PEN & PAPER! 🙌🏾

Kimberly literally shares everything I only WISH I knew before working my way up the corporate ladder and transitioning into a job that I’d love (and one that paid me WELL). She touches on everything from pivoting in my career to salary negotiations - and what I appreciate most is that she speaks from a place of experience! She has RECEIPTS. I also love that the information is delivered in bite sized episodes - short enough for a quick listen, but long enough to make a lasting impact and providing actionable tips to implement. This podcast has my highest recommendation - especially for women of color looking to break through limiting beliefs, secure their dream position, and finally to get paid their worth.

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.
