On this episode of Executiveland, Elizabeth Freedman sits down with Melisa Liberman, founder and CEO of Melisa Liberman Coaching. They explore how corporate leaders can successfully transition into independent consulting.

You’ll hear:

• How to navigate the identity shift from corporate executive to business owner and rebuild confidence independent of past titles
• Why starting simple with “foot in the door” consulting offers helps you land clients quickly and refine your business model
• How to leverage past experience without feeling like you’re starting from scratch and recognize patterns of success
• Practical approaches to pipeline growth, lead generation, and client acquisition
• Emerging consulting opportunities, including AI strategy and diagnostics, and how to identify high-value solutions your clients need

Making the leap into independent consulting starts with a decision, not a perfect plan. This episode gives you the roadmap. Share it with a colleague who’s ready to make the leap.
