Welcome to Unsolicited Career Advice 🎯
Practical career and leadership guidance without the fluff.
Hi, I’m Kimberly Lowe-Williams. If you’re here, chances are you’re looking for thoughtful, actionable advice about your career or leadership journey. This space was created for people just like you—leaders, managers, and professionals striving to make a real impact without losing their humanity or burning out.
Why this, why now
I’ve spent over two decades navigating corporate leadership and mentoring others along the way. If there’s one thing I’ve learned, it’s that career advice isn’t one-size-fits-all—and it’s rarely as straightforward as we wish it were. That’s why I’m re-launching Unsolicited Career Advice: a space to share no-nonsense insights about leadership, team management, and personal growth.
Why now? Because too many of us are overwhelmed by fluffy advice that doesn’t work in real-life settings. This newsletter is for those who want practical, actionable career strategies that lead to meaningful impact.
Why am I starting this newsletter?
After more than two decades as a senior engineering leader and mentor, I’ve learned that career success doesn’t come from cookie-cutter advice. Leadership is complex, nuanced, and often messy. While there are plenty of resources out there, so much of it feels disconnected from the realities we face every day in corporate environments.
That’s where Unsolicited Career Advice comes in. This is a place for no-fluff, real-world strategies to help you navigate the challenges of leadership, team management, and career growth. My goal is to provide you with insights you can put into action immediately.
What kind of community are we building here?
This newsletter isn’t just about me sharing advice—it’s about creating a community of thoughtful professionals. Here, we’ll talk about everything from managing tough conversations to building trust with your team, all while staying true to yourself.
This is a place where we value:
Honest conversations.
Growth-oriented mindsets.
Empathy and balance.
Whether you’re a seasoned manager, a first-time leader, or someone who wants to level up their career, you’ll find something valuable here.
What can you expect?
Monthly posts with practical tips, stories, and leadership strategies.
Exclusive content for subscribers, including deep dives into leadership skills and problem-solving tactics.
Q&A opportunities, where I’ll answer your burning questions about career challenges and leadership.
For now, all content is free—but I’m working on some exciting perks for paid subscribers down the road, like live sessions, templates, and downloadable resources.
Let’s build something together
I’m thrilled to have you here. Together, we’ll explore what it means to lead effectively, grow with purpose, and build fulfilling careers.
