Fractional COO, Startup Advisor

You'll have access to the recording and all materials. But the real value is in the live coaching, peer exchange, and AMA — so we encourage attending live. And since this runs monthly, you can always join the next cohort.
What nobody tells you about going from executive to independent. The emotional journey, the financial realities, and why most people get stuck before they start.
You've done a lot of things. But what would someone actually pay you for? A hands-on exercise with AI to extract your 3-5 marketable capability themes from your career history.
Turn your capabilities into a concrete offering: what you do, for whom, how you engage, and what value you deliver. You'll leave with a first draft you can share with real people.
Identify 3-5 trusted people who can validate your offering and draft the outreach. The goal: know by next week whether you have something real.
Amanda answers anything — real numbers, real mistakes, real talk. Plus structured time with your peers: future referral partners who understand exactly what you're navigating.
Walk away with a concrete offering you can test with real people, an action plan, and a room full of peers who get it.
