Career Clarity & Strategy
Simi Adekolu
Career & Leadership Strategist

I rebuilt my career from zero after moving countries. Today I help professionals across tech, finance, consulting, and the public sector do the same — with an analyst’s rigor and a strategist’s clarity.

“You are not stuck. You are unclear. Most career advice tells you to try harder. I tell you what is actually misaligned, what is holding you back, and exactly what to do about it. This week.”

The Clarity Session

$250 USD
One hour, one to one with me

You’ve got a decision in front of you and you keep going back and forth on it. An offer on the table. A promotion that hasn’t happened and nobody will tell you why. A pivot you’ve been thinking about for a year. A conversation with your manager you don’t know how to start.

You come with what’s on your mind.

Book a Clarity Session
What You Get
  • A 60-minute call, and I tell you what I actually think.
  • A written action plan within 72 hours. Your next 3 to 5 moves, in the order to do them, starting with the one to do this week.
  • The recording, yours to keep.
  • One follow-up email within 7 days, once you’ve started acting on it.

Don’t book this if what you actually want is your material rewritten. That’s the Positioning Plan, and you’d be paying for this hour twice.

The Six-Week Partnership

$1,500 USD
3 sessions across 6 weeks

You’re actually making the move, and it’s going to run over weeks. There’s a negotiation coming. There’s politics inside your own organization to handle. There are interviews you get one shot at. And somewhere in the middle there’ll be a week where you want to drop the whole thing.

I stay with you through it.

Book a Time to Scope It
What You Get
  • Everything in the Positioning Plan: the document, your resume and LinkedIn rewritten, and a revision round.
  • 3 sessions across 6 weeks while the move is actually happening. Week 1 is what you’re going after. Week 3 is the approach, once your materials are done. Week 6 is the ask.
  • A salary and market brief, so you know your number before you’re asked for it.
  • A 90-day plan at the end.
  • Recordings of all 3 sessions.

I take 2 of these at a time. Don’t buy this if what you need is documents. That’s the Positioning Plan, for less than half.

What I Won’t Promise

I won’t promise you the job, or the promotion. Anybody telling you they can promise that isn’t being straight with you. I’m not in the room where those decisions get made, and most of the time your own manager isn’t either.

What I will do is tell you what’s actually going on, which is usually not what you think it is. I’ll give you the language and the plan to be understood properly. And when the decision does get made, I’ll make sure the case in front of them is a good one and that it still sounds like you.

If you finish anything you’ve paid me for and you haven’t got a plan you can act on, tell me and I’ll refund you.

Not sure which one is yours?

Email me and tell me what’s going on. I’ll tell you which one fits, and if the answer is none of them then I’ll tell you that too.

Quarterly Mentoring

Five people. One hour a week for four weeks. Runs four times a year.

What Happens In The Room

This one is deliberately wider than career. The promotion that keeps not happening, the business you keep almost starting, the ambition you’ve never said out loud to anybody, or the growing sense that you’re doing well at something you’re not sure you still want.

There’s no curriculum and that’s the point. We work on whatever the 5 of you actually bring. Your career doesn’t sit in a separate box from the rest of your life, and I think that’s exactly why so much career advice turns out to be useless.

4 hours with me, an hour a week, with the same 5 people throughout
A proper turn on your own case, twice across the month
By week 2 everybody knows your situation, which matters more than people expect
A written plan you leave with, plus the recordings
$300 USD

5 seats each round · next group opens each quarter

Join the Next Group

Two people go deep each session while the rest of you work the same question against your own situation. That’s why it stays at five.

What Clients Are Saying

★★★★★
“Your diagnosis was on point — you named exactly what I couldn’t articulate about my own career. For the first time, I have clarity on what was holding me back and a real plan to move forward.”
— Katherine N.
★★★★★
“After the resume rework and positioning strategy, I landed 3 interview invites — two Fintechs in the US and one Fortune 500. This is what happens when someone who actually understands your background helps you tell your story.”
— Mike A.
★★★★★
“I went from feeling invisible in a new market to having a clear roadmap and the confidence to own my narrative. She doesn’t just coach — she equips you.”
— Tundun O.

Your Clarity Starts Here

The Career Audit

When you book a session, I’ll send you a short audit to surface what you’ve been avoiding. Here’s a taste:

What exactly is the career problem you’re trying to solve?

Most people describe their career problem in vague terms — “I’m stuck,” “I’m unhappy.” That’s a feeling, not a diagnosis. The first step to fixing anything is naming it precisely.

What have you already tried, and why didn’t it work?

If you’ve already tried things and they didn’t work, that’s not failure — that’s data. Knowing what didn’t move the needle tells me more than knowing what you want.

If our work was wildly successful, what is different about your life 6 months from now?

Here’s where most people get stuck: they know what they don’t want, but they’ve never written down what they actually do want. Vague goals produce vague results.

What’s the single biggest thing standing between you and that outcome?

The gap between where you are and where you want to be is rarely about information. It’s usually about clarity, confidence, positioning, skills, or courage.

If these questions already made you think differently — good. That’s the point. Clarity starts before our first call.
