Struggling With Leadership, Hiring, or Team Challenges? Let’s Fix What’s Really Slowing You Down.
Whether it’s a tense team, a stalled hire, or a client relationship that’s draining your energy - you don’t need more chaos. You need clarity, fast.
I help founders, fractionals, SMB and independent leaders solve people problems at the root so they can lead smarter, hire better, and grow faster.
Strategic Talent Rx helps growth-focused leaders - whether you’re a solopreneur, founder, or team builder - solve the leadership, hiring, and team problems that quietly kill momentum before they cost you more.
I help you lead smarter, hire better, and build a team that actually works for you.
You’re not just overwhelmed. You’re over-invested in relationships, roles, or routines that no longer fit.
Whether you’re navigating a challenging client relationship, prepping for your first or next key hire, or trying to get your team aligned around business goals, I help you:
Avoid costly people decisions
Reduce leadership and team friction
Build a people strategy that works at your stage of growth
Your success depends on you, and your people.
Whether you’re scaling solo or leading a small-but-mighty team, your leadership, team dynamics, hiring decisions, and culture will either fuel your growth, or quietly slow you down.
When those pieces align, growth accelerates.
When they don’t, you lose time, money, and momentum fast.
I help you lead with confidence, hire smarter, and build aligned teams so you can scale your business with fewer mistakes and more clarity.
Is your business struggling with people problems that slow growth?
Losing trusted collaborators, clients, or contractors without knowing why?
Dealing with delays, misalignment, or tension but unsure where the breakdown is?
Struggling to make your first or next key hire and can't seem to get the right fit?
Feeling pressure to lead but lacking the authority, buy-in, or clarity to make it stick?

It doesn’t take a big company to create big dysfunction.
Not sure who’s doing what, or how decisions get made across roles or relationships?
Unspoken tension with a co-founder, contractor, or client that’s draining your energy?
Losing business because misalignment behind the scenes is bleeding into delivery?
If these sound familiar, let’s fix them at the root.
Let’s get your people strategy working for you.
