HR consultant mentoring

Start Your HR Consulting Practice with Confidence

One-on-one mentoring for HR professionals building their own consulting business. Get real answers from someone who has done it.

From HR leader to business owner

I launched TruckeeHR in 2015 and have since served more than 500 clients across California and beyond. Before that, I spent two decades in senior HR roles at companies including Starbucks, Amazon, and Vail Resorts. I know what it takes to go from HR professional to HR business owner, and I mentor consultants who are ready to make that leap.

500+

Clients served across California and beyond, with practical lessons from building an HR consulting practice from the ground up.

What we can cover in your session

Bring the questions that are holding you up. We can work through the practical business decisions behind launching and running an independent HR practice.

Structuring your services

Retainers, project work, fractional HR, and the right mix for the practice you want to build.

Pricing your services

Set rates, package work, and think through a bank-of-hours model that is clear for clients and sustainable for you.

Making the transition

Plan the leap from employee to consultant, including timing, positioning, and what to prepare before you go out on your own.

Winning first clients

Find early opportunities, explain your value, and build trust without sounding like a generic HR vendor.

Partnering with counsel

Understand where employment counsel fits, how to manage risk, and when to bring legal support into client work.

Tools and workflows

Build simple systems for proposals, intake, documentation, client communication, and solo-practice delivery.

Anything else on your mind

You set the agenda. We can focus the hour on the questions, decisions, or sticking points that matter most right now.

Who this is for

HR professionals with solid experience who are considering, launching, or growing an independent HR consulting practice. Whether you are still employed and planning your exit or newly on your own, we will meet you where you are.

Meet where you are

Use the hour for strategy, confidence, decision-making, or a very practical review of how to package and sell your work.

Frequently asked questions

Do you offer ongoing mentoring?

Yes. Many mentees book sessions quarterly or as milestones come up. Start with one session and go from there.

I’m not in California. Is this still useful?

Yes. Business strategy, pricing, and client development apply everywhere. For state-specific compliance, I’ll point you to the right resources for your region.

What if I need to reschedule?

No problem with 24 hours’ notice.
