Many careers begin with curiosity.
The challenge is finding opportunities that help turn that curiosity into practical skills, real experience, and confidence.

In our recent conversation with Adora Nwodo, she spoke about the role mentorship, learning, and access played in shaping her career journey.

Today, through NexaScaleโ€™s ๐—”๐—ฝ๐—ฝ๐—น๐—ถ๐—ฒ๐—ฑ ๐—”๐—œ ๐—™๐—ฒ๐—น๐—น๐—ผ๐˜„๐˜€๐—ต๐—ถ๐—ฝ, Adora and her team are creating opportunities for the next generation of AI builders.

Meet Cathie, Cybersecurity and AI Specialist at Queen Mary University of London.

Cathie's journey into cybersecurity started in academia, researching and teaching English Literature before pivoting to the technology sector.

Today, she works across cybersecurity, AI policy, cloud security, and security engineering, combining organisational risk management with hands-on technical expertise.

One of the things that stands out in Cathie's story is her commitment to continuous learning.

Over the years, she has retrained in cloud, DevOps, and software development, building skills in Python, AWS, Terraform, Docker, Kubernetes, and more.

When asked what advice Cathie would give to women looking to transition into cloud, security engineering, or AI, her answer was clear:
โžก๏ธ Keep learning consistently
โžก๏ธ Build hands-on projects
โžก๏ธ Connect with practitioners and communities

As she explains:
โ€œ๐˜›๐˜ฉ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ง๐˜ช๐˜ณ๐˜ด๐˜ต ๐˜ข๐˜ฅ๐˜ท๐˜ช๐˜ค๐˜ฆ ๐˜ช๐˜ด ๐˜ต๐˜ฐ ๐˜ค๐˜ฐ๐˜ฏ๐˜ด๐˜ต๐˜ข๐˜ฏ๐˜ต๐˜ญ๐˜บ ๐˜ญ๐˜ฆ๐˜ข๐˜ณ๐˜ฏ ๐˜ฏ๐˜ฆ๐˜ธ ๐˜ด๐˜ฌ๐˜ช๐˜ญ๐˜ญ๐˜ด ๐˜ข๐˜ฏ๐˜ฅ ๐˜ฃ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ค๐˜ฐ๐˜ฏ๐˜ด๐˜ช๐˜ด๐˜ต๐˜ฆ๐˜ฏ๐˜ต ๐˜ธ๐˜ช๐˜ต๐˜ฉ ๐˜ต๐˜ฉ๐˜ช๐˜ด ๐˜ฉ๐˜ข๐˜ฃ๐˜ช๐˜ต.โ€

Her perspective on leadership is equally thoughtful. For Cathie, good leadership in cybersecurity and AI means balancing innovation, accountability, security, and care for people. She also believes that psychological safety and diverse perspectives lead to better decisions and stronger teams.

Outside of her day-to-day role, she is also deeply involved in mentoring and supporting women in technology.

Cathie says:
โ€œ๐˜”๐˜ฆ๐˜ฏ๐˜ต๐˜ฐ๐˜ณ๐˜ด ๐˜ฉ๐˜ฆ๐˜ญ๐˜ฑ ๐˜บ๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ ๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ๐˜ง๐˜ณ๐˜ข๐˜ฎ๐˜ฆ ๐˜บ๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ๐˜ณ ๐˜ง๐˜ข๐˜ช๐˜ญ๐˜ถ๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ๐˜ด ๐˜ข๐˜ฏ๐˜ฅ ๐˜จ๐˜ช๐˜ท๐˜ฆ ๐˜บ๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ ๐˜ต๐˜ฉ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ฑ๐˜ฐ๐˜ธ๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ ๐˜ต๐˜ฐ ๐˜จ๐˜ฆ๐˜ต ๐˜ถ๐˜ฑ ๐˜ข๐˜ฏ๐˜ฅ ๐˜จ๐˜ฐ ๐˜ข๐˜ง๐˜ต๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ ๐˜บ๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ ๐˜ง๐˜ข๐˜ญ๐˜ญ.โ€

It's why she encourages every woman entering the industry to seek guidance, build relationships, and never try to grow entirely on their own.

If you've been feeling restless at work lately, ask yourself:
Are you unhappy?
Or have you outgrown your role?

There's a difference.

One points to a problem.
The other points to growth.

Some signs you've outgrown your role:
๐Ÿ‘‰ you're no longer being challenged
๐Ÿ‘‰ you've stopped learning
๐Ÿ‘‰ you rarely feel energised by your work
๐Ÿ‘‰ you're doing the job well, but without enthusiasm
๐Ÿ‘‰ you're increasingly curious about other possibilities

Outgrowing a role is often a sign that you're ready for your next chapter.

Don't think about it as a failure.
Rather, think of it as evidence of ๐—ด๐—ฟ๐—ผ๐˜„๐˜๐—ต.

The role that challenged and fulfilled you a few years ago may no longer be the one that helps you grow today.

Career coaching can help you gain clarity on your strengths, values, goals, and the kind of role that will support your next stage of growth.

Women are entering Tech in greater numbers than ever, yet the higher you look on the leadership ladder, the fewer women you see.

Why does this happen, and more importantly, how can you position yourself for leadership?

In this video we explore the barriers holding women back and practical strategies to help you take the next step toward leadership.

It's one of the most common pieces of career advice many hear, but also one of the least explained.

In our community, many women in Tech & AI tell us that networking feels uncomfortable, transactional, or something reserved for naturally confident people.

The reality is that some of the most valuable career opportunities come through relationships, not job boards.

We put together a practical guide:

In our 4-minute read, we explore:
๐Ÿ”น Why professional networks matter beyond finding a job
๐Ÿ”น How to build meaningful connections (without being salesy)
๐Ÿ”น Why networking works best when linked to a clear career plan
๐Ÿ”น How communities, events, and coaching can support your growth
๐Ÿ”น Ways to make networking feel more natural and sustainable

The strongest networks are built through curiosity, consistency, and genuine connection.
