Taking the Plunge Into Consulting

Have you ever thought about becoming a consultant? What exactly is a consultant, really? The term can feel vague—almost like a catch-all for anyone running a solo business.

The truth is, consulting can look very different depending on your industry, your focus areas, and the types of solutions you offer. How do you want to share your expertise? Are you clear on what your expertise even is?

I’ve been pondering these questions myself, having recently stepped into the world of consulting. It’s both exciting and overwhelming!

Over the coming weeks and months, I’ll be sharing more about my personal journey into consulting—what I’m learning, what’s working, and where I’m still finding my way.

Full disclosure: I do have the benefit of being married to a man who’s been a consultant for 25 years. His sharp business mind and constant availability are definite assets. That said, our fields are completely different, and the model I’m developing is uniquely my own.

Along the way, I invite you to join the conversation. I’d love to hear from seasoned consultants who’ve found their rhythm, as well as those just starting out. Together, we can explore the common challenges of launching a consultancy, share best practices, learn from one another, and grow into our evolving roles—as thought leaders, impact makers, experts, mentors, and more.

I’m excited to get started—with you.
