How to Turn a Late-Career Layoff Into a Consulting Practice

Episode 38 of Late-Career Conversations tackles the specific challenge of turning a layoff after 50 into a structured consulting practice. Lucas and Luna walk through the story of a 58-year-old former supply chain director who was let go in a restructuring, spent two weeks reframing her expertise, and landed her first three fractional clients within 60 days. They discuss the key moves: negotiating a transition agreement that includes client access, building a simple landing page before you need it, and pricing your first engagement at a rate that signals value without underselling. The hosts also touch on the emotional shift from employee identity to independent expert, and why the first 90 days after a layoff are a window of leverage, not panic. A practical, grounded episode for anyone facing an unexpected late-career exit. #LateCareer #Careers #LayoffStrategy #ConsultingPractice #FractionalConsulting #SupplyChain #CareerPivot #After50 #EmployeeToConsultant #TransitionAgreement #ClientAccess #PricingStrategy #LandingPage #LeverageWindow #IdentityShift #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #LateCareerConversations Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
