Are you an overachieving director, VP, or enterprise leader sitting on specialized market knowledge, wondering how to transition your corporate reps into a lifestyle-focused firm that serves you and your family first? In this transparent guest conversation, host Billy Keels sits down with Stephen Slater—former city planner, Verizon corporate real estate manager, and founder of Blue Croix. Stephen shares his unique trajectory of walking away from a fast-track corporate career right after receiving an employer-funded MBA, relying on raw intuition, naivety, and a clear understanding of his own risk tolerance. Discover how Stephen built a high-margin, low-volume consulting firm by creating specialized cash-flow solutions for major telecommunications giants, why "it's not what you make, it's what you keep," and how to structure a business designed specifically to support your life choices rather than relentless, unnecessary headcount scale. 🚀 Want to make your corporate role optional?

What does it look like to build a high-margin, niche consulting business that services enterprise telco giants on your own terms? Why is "it's not what you make, it's what you keep" the ultimate financial mantra for independent enterprise consultants? How do you leverage your corporate network while maintaining genuine, long-term professional relationships? What is the "Protean Corporation" structure, and how does it allow you to scale fluid teams up and down per project? ⏱️ Episode Chapters: 00:00 - Broadcast Recording Setup: Thursday, July 30, 2026, with Stephen Slater 00:30 - Public to Private Sector: Managing $7 Billion Real Estate Operations 02:45 - Walking Off the Fast Track: Risk Tolerance, Intuition, and Partner Support 07:15 - Testing the Water: Creating a Cash Flow Model on Vacation Days 11:20 - Unfiltered Networking Truths: What Happens to Corporate Relationships When the Title Changes 14:05 - Designing a Niche Business: Choosing High Margins over Mass Scale 18:10 - Lifestyle Architecture: Building a Business That Serves Your Family and Time 22:15 - Recovering Hidden Assets: How Blue Croix Solves Complex Zoning and Permitting 26:40 - Corporate Skill Transferability: What You Learn vs. What You Keep 30:10 - Fluid Team Building: Leveraging Trusted Vendor Networks Across Decades 33:20 - Working Remotely for 25 Years: Selective Project Execution 37:15 - The Power of Now: Focusing on What You Have in the Trough 40:30 - Connecting with Stephen Slater and Blue Croix 📘 About Billy Keels & Corporate Optionality If you're a corporate executive who wants to make your role optional, learn how to achieve true control over your career and turn your corporate skills into personal assets.
