You’ve put in your time in the corporate world. You’ve moved up the ladder, perfected those niche skills, and have really made your mark at your company. You are good at your job — invaluable really — but you find yourself unsettled and unhappy with the routine 9-5 job. 

PIVOT

A Guide to Starting Your Own Business

Asking if it is time for a change ?


Feeling trapped and in discord with your inner self 

Wondering if you really could step out and work for yourself 

Ready to work on your own terms 

Are you ...

Thinking that your skills could be a valuable asset as a consultant  out in the “real world”? 

A pivot into the world of consulting and freelancing.

 And I am SO excited for you.
 This course I created may be the perfect tool to help you transition into a full-time, freelance consulting career. 

Like you, I was once caught in the daily grind of the 9-5 office life. It wasn’t necessarily that my job in the non-profit sector was awful, it just no longer fit who I was. It no longer aligned with my heart. 

I became anxious, depressed, and sleep-deprived — I wasn’t mentally or physically healthy. I knew I had to make a change.

From this internal dissonance came my journey into the world of consulting and freelancing — a journey that I have found to be one of the most freeing and soul-affirming of my career life. I now run the branding studio ComePlum, the social impact blog Ethical Weddings, and the Branding Your Business podcast.

And now I am ready to help you step into your new career as a freelance consultant. 

I’ve been running ComePlum for the past ten years and I’ve been privileged to help hundreds of other small business owners build profitable brands that both they and their clients love. It’s been on my heart for a while to create a resource that helps people just like you as they pivot into the world of consulting.  

I’m Praise Santos McKenna and I’m so glad you found me.

You feel like it is too much. You don’t know what to do or where to go. And, let’s be honest, you are just plain intimidated. 

I know, I’ve been there. And I know, without a doubt, that you can make this happen.

Imagine finally having the tools and resources to overcome intimidation and take that bold step toward being self-employed. Imagine harnessing all of your talent, passion, drive, and confidence and taking your future into your own hands. 

And I want to help you take the first steps in this journey


It doesn’t matter how much knowledge you have or how confident you are in your skill set, pivoting is hard. Stepping out on your own is scary.
