What's a conversation with you like?
Someone asked me this week.

Here's what I told them:

My clients are practical, action-oriented people.
They have tough decisions to make.
Often under pressure.

My role is to help them think differently about what's in front of them.
We look at unconsidered angles. Challenge assumptions. Test ideas.

It's cathartic.

They're not looking for hand-holding or enlightenment.
They want clarity so they can get on with things.

That's the work.
