Meet Amber J. Adams, the leadership coach and risk-taker by design

I like to say that I am “rebellious by nature and a risk-taker by design.” At the core I am a woman who loves finding ways to make the everyday fabulous. I love helping women do this in my roles as a writer, leadership and brand development coach, and all-around elder millennial hype woman. 

I’m in the midst of

Devoting myself to helping my midlife clients reimagine their careers and reconnect with their power to move their career and their lives forward. At 39 years old, I am proud to be aligning my career and work with who I truly am: a person who believes that the intersection between life and career can and should be fabulous. I currently split my time between New York City and London. At the tail end of my 37th year, I met an English gentleman who inspired an unexpected plot twist in my life. You could say that I’m in the midst of bridging the gap across the pond so I can stay connected to all of the people, places, and things I love. 

The best thing about my current age

On most days I still feel very connected to my younger self, who was always wrapped up in a daydream, or trying to figure out ways to change the world. At 39, I have still maintained the sparkle in my eyes and outlook, but now I can back it up with wisdom and experiences I never would have dreamed of having!

My Grown-Ass Lady heroes

Tracee Ellis Ross. She’s so fabulous. Truly an amazing example of a woman who owns every aspect of her story and life. 

What’s next for me

Continuing to build my business, Amber Career Studio, traveling to new places throughout 2024, and prioritizing feeling peaceful in my skin. I’m looking forward to leaning into this last year of my 30s.
