You Are Not Running a Daycare: Meg Scheding on Treating Professionals Like Adults and Pricing Like It Matters w/ Meg Scheding

May 13, 2026·47 min
Episode Description from the Publisher

Meg Scheding joins the show to break down what it actually takes to build a fractional consulting practice—and why most people who say they want out of corporate life end up crawling back. We cover the psychology of corporate domestication, why the ability to sell is the single gate to independent work, how to structure engagements around outcomes instead of hours, the human moat that AI still cannot replicate, and why fractional doesn't have to be forever. Listen on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and YouTube.
