You’re tuned in to Career Convos with Nikki: real, unfiltered conversations about what it takes to build a career you actually want in corporate America. If you’re an accountant, analyst, finance manager, controller, or just trying to figure out what’s next in your career… you’re in the right place.

We talk about navigating layoffs, dealing with microaggressions, managing up, and advocating for yourself in rooms where no one looks like you. Grab your coffee, an old fashioned, or some lemon mint water and let's get into this conversation.

Let's keep this conversation going in the #CareerConvos™️Community where we meet at the roundtable and go deeper into these conversations. You can also access the learning library for coaching sessions and tutorials for career guidance, templates you can copy and use, and learn how to negotiate like a boss.

In this episode of #CareerConvos™ with Nikki I open up about embracing discomfort during some of the most challenging times in my career and personal life. I share how I made the difficult decision to leave a toxic job without having another lined up and how that led me to fully invest in my businesses. From there I talk about how Microsoft found me when I was clear on what I wanted next and how stepping into a new leadership role meant going back to being a beginner and embracing that vulnerability. I discuss why discomfort is essential for growth and how leaning into those uncomfortable moments whether in your career business or personal life can lead to breakthroughs. If you are feeling uncertain or stuck I encourage you to lean into your discomfort and trust that it is part of your journey toward something greater.
