Her focus quickly evolved from consulting to counseling individuals and small groups on the importance of taking a proactive approach to their personal and business affairs by proper planning. It was through these experiences that birthed the concept of contingency planning that emphasizes taking a proactive, rather than reactive approach to managing both life and business matters.
