When you’re a consultant, there’s one thing more important than your reputation, your work ethic, and even your expertise... And there’s a good chance you’ll ignore it—until you can’t. I'm talking about your health. Think about it. If you’re constantly running on empty, feeling drained, or overwhelmed, it’s only a matter of time before that takes a toll on your business. Because let’s be honest, if your health fails, your business fails. You simply can’t show up at your best when you’re sick, burned out, or running on fumes. Success isn’t just about what you do. It’s about how you feel. ??♀? Taking care of yourself isn’t a luxury. It’s as much a part of your business as invoicing and checking your email. So the best way to run a healthy business is to make sure the engines powering its core operations — YOU — are healthy too. What are some ways you take care of yourself?

“You know, you really don’t realize how burned out you are until you lose your job.” It was a shock to learn that her executive role was no longer needed, but it didn’t take long for Patsy to realize that it might just be the best thing that had ever happened to her—aside from her husband and kids, whom she was enjoying the extra time with. We’ve all been in Patsy’s worn-out shoes. Corporate America has normalized burnout, overwhelm, and stress to the point that we can’t imagine work without them. To many, it's seen as the cost of making a living. But it doesn’t have to be. If you’ve been recently laid off or let go, you might be starting to realize there’s a whole new audience for your expertise—and a whole new way to serve them. Consulting did that for me, just as it has for Patsy and thousands of women in our online community. YOU CAN create a career that works for you, not against you. YOU CAN match or exceed your corporate salary working fewer hours. YOU CAN work in a way that fuels and fulfills you. Wondering if consulting is the right fit?

Sometimes it’s not the company—it’s the role. ?? Leena, a recent Passport Graduate, signed a $100k contract with her former employer, but this time, things are different. She’s not back as an employee—she’s returned as a consultant with more control over her offer, her value, and her time. ?? This is a powerful reminder for anyone feeling stuck in a corporate role: You can cross into a new life without burning bridges. Many consultants leave their roles only to return to the same companies as consultants, where they’re able to shape the terms of their work, command higher pay, and set boundaries that create more freedom. Here’s what Leena’s win teaches us: ? It can pay to think outside the office.? Leaving your corporate position doesn’t mean leaving behind opportunities; sometimes, it means coming back with more leverage and more value. ?You can have a job that works FOR YOU. As a consultant, you’re in charge of your offers, pricing, and availability. You define your worth. You set your terms. You control your calendar. ? You can master your expertise and expand your reach. Leena is balancing a $25k per month contract with her former employer while also securing work with a smaller marketing company. When you refine your offer and expertise, you can diversify your client base and increase your impact, influence, and earning potential! What would your life look like if you had this kind of control?

“Burnout in corporate roles is normal, right?” she asked me, expecting me to agree. “I don’t know anyone in my position who isn’t overwhelmed and stressed out.” Burnout might be common, but it shouldn’t be normal—and it no longer has to be YOUR normal. If you’re exhausted from the corporate grind, it’s a sign that it’s time to create a different future. You weren’t born to suffer! Here’s what’s possible when you make the move to consulting: ? You can create a flexible, sustainable consulting business that doesn’t lead to burnout. ? You can match or exceed your corporate salary, with more freedom and less stress. ? You can build a business around your expertise, working with clients and projects that inspire and fuel you. This isn’t to say that consulting is stress-free. But when your career is balanced with work you love, clients who value you, and the freedom to set your own schedule, take breaks when you need them, and say no to projects that don’t align — stress becomes a heckuva lot more manageable.

Two years ago, Corinne and I took a leap that felt like a risky stretch. We were in Scottsdale, Arizona, attending a live event that was definitely an investment. Flights, hotel, meals —the costs added up to thousands. Honestly, it wasn’t a “comfortable” financial choice. Until we got there. Surrounded by people who were steps ahead of us, we made a bold declaration: $100K months by year’s end. We were making around $30K/month then, but the stories, the breakthroughs, the inspiration—all of it FUELED us. It turned out the “stretch” investment we could barely afford became a situation we couldn’t afford to miss. And three months later, we hit that $100K mark. The lesson? There’s nothing like the energy of a room filled with big thinkers who are striving for more. It can propel you to new levels and create momentum that carries you beyond what you thought was possible. You truly don’t know the impact of getting in the room until you’re there. How are you planning to build community and fuel in-person connections this year? #GetInTheRoom #BigThinkers #Momentum
