You've led million-dollar projects, delivered results that speak for themselves, and built a reputation for excellence, only to watch someone else get chosen for the opportunity you deserved. Not because you weren't ready, but because your name didn't come to mind first. Welcome to Your Next Move, the podcast for high-performing professionals in leadership who are ready to elevate their visibility, build a powerful personal brand and position themselves for opportunities that accelerate their path to industry-wide recognition or higher level roles. I'm Kimberly Brown, a globally recognized career and leadership expert, keynote speaker, and bestselling author of Next Move, Best Move. I've coached hundreds of mid- to executive-level professionals working in Fortune 500 companies to grow their visibility, influence, and leadership presence, without leaving their jobs. Here's what I've learned: being great at your job isn't enough. If people don't know who you are, the value only you can offer, or the impact you're here to make, you'll keep executing someone else's vision. Each episode delivers practical visibility strategies, powerful mindset shifts, and the leadership tools you need to build a speaker brand that positions you for your next big move, whether that's speaking on national stages, landing your next promotion, or becoming a recognized voice in your industry. You'll learn how to elevate your visibility without "doing the most", speak with authority without fear of being seen as self-promotional and become known as a thought leader inside (and outside) your current company. If you're wondering: How do I position myself as a thought leader at work? Why am I being overlooked for promotions when I'm good at my job? How do I build a leadership brand? Can I stay in my current company and grow my career? How do I make people remember my name in the right rooms? …you're in the right place. Tune in for expert advice, behind-the-scenes coaching, and my signature no-fluff perspective on what it really takes to accelerate your leadership trajectory and step into the rooms where real decisions are made. 🎧 Follow Your Next Move wherever you listen to podcasts, and start building a career that gets you seen, heard, and recognized for what you do best. 📲 Want to connect?

    132. 5 Lessons From 5 Years of Full-Time Entrepreneurship
    May 20 2026

    Five years of full-time entrepreneurship — and Kimberly isn't showing up with a highlight reel. She's bringing the real: the lessons she had to learn, unlearn, and sometimes relearn on the road to building a multi-six-figure business five years running. This episode is for every entrepreneur who has ever questioned the path, doubted the process, or wondered if it's actually worth it.

    In This Episode:

    • The strategy Kimberly has consistently returned to as her primary lead generator since 2011 — and why she kept leaving it anyway
    • Her evolution from career counselor to global HR director to speaker, coach, author, and beyond — and what that teaches us about identity in entrepreneurship
    • Why followers and a following are not the same thing
    • The advice she was given about not giving too much away — and why she chose to ignore it
    • The launches where no one enrolled, the investments that didn't pay off, and the mindset that kept her going anyway

  • 131. Information Overload Is Keeping You Stuck: How I'm Aligning Everything to 3 Goals for 40 Days

    131. Information Overload Is Keeping You Stuck: How I'm Aligning Everything to 3 Goals for 40 Days
    May 13 2026

    Sometimes the most productive thing you can do is stop consuming. In this solo episode, Kimberly gets personal — sharing the moment in her car that made her realize her brain had been "outside" for way too long. She breaks down the three goals that are now her filter for everything: brand building, waist shrinking, and stress annihilating. If it doesn't serve one of those three, it's out. This one is raw, honest, and exactly the permission slip you didn't know you needed.

    In This Episode:

    • Kimberly shares the driving moment that made her realize she was in information overload
    • She opens up about her weight loss journey, grief, and gaining 13 pounds since losing her mom in August
    • She introduces her three focus areas: brand building, waist shrinking, and stress annihilating
    • She references the concept of "working procrastination" and how it shows up for her and her clients
    • She ties her 40-day challenge back to the core values framework in her book
    • She challenges listeners to lock in on their own three goals for the next 40 days

  • 130. How to Pay Off Debt, Build Wealth, and Buy Back Your Life — Without Deprivation with Naseema McElroy

    130. How to Pay Off Debt, Build Wealth, and Buy Back Your Life — Without Deprivation with Naseema McElroy
    Apr 29 2026

    She was making over $200,000 a year, had the house, the luxury car, and the career — and she was still broke. In this episode, Kimberly sits down with Naseema McElroy, Labor and Delivery Nurse, personal finance expert, podcast host, and founder of Financially Intentional, for a conversation that is equal parts real talk and roadmap. Naseema paid off nearly one million dollars in debt in under three years — without deprivation — and went on to build a seven-figure net worth while raising three daughters as a single mom. What she shares here is not your typical finance advice.

    In this episode we discuss:

    • Why high-earning women are often the most financially stuck — and the mindset shift that actually changes it
    • What "without deprivation" really looks like inside a debt payoff plan (hint: Disneyland was in the budget)
    • The financial reality of divorce that no one talks about until it's too late — and how having a strong financial foundation gave Naseema the power to leave
    • The beauty tax, the hair cost, the professional appearance standards — and why Black women need a budget built for their actual reality
    • Why most people don't need a financial advisor first — they need a money therapist
    • The FIRE movement and how Naseema went from debt-free to millionaire in just a few years
    • What she wants her three daughters to inherit beyond money
