In this episode of Social Situation, Trevor and Erin sit down with Catalina Parker of Relatable Nonprofit to unpack what it really means to ditch the traditional 9–5 in favor of building a consulting life on your own terms. From burnout in full-time roles to the joy (and chaos) of self-employment, Catalina shares her journey of turning frustration into freedom—and why so many nonprofit professionals are doing the same. We dive into practical strategies, identity shifts, imposter syndrome, and what makes consulting actually sustainable. Whether you're toying with the idea or already deep in the freelance hustle, this one’s for you.
