Hey, I’m Traci.
I Help Companies Survive External Shocks That Kill Operations and Cash Flow
Companies lose millions from threats they never saw coming. Without early warning systems, you're just guessing which shock will hit first.
I help business leaders identify and prepare for external threats - before it spreads into an internal crisis.
Experience Meets Intelligence: Building Resilient Business Operations
The Framework
The Early Warning Advisor™ Framework brings clarity in just 3 days. It's not about growth at all costs—it's about traceable, sustainable growth.
Every decision backed by risk intelligence. Every threat calculated. Every move sustainable. Because in business, resilience beats rapid scaling every time.
The Expertise
After 35 years helping organizations survive what often kills other businesses, I discovered a truth: The companies that thrive don't just grow the fastest—they see threats before they become disasters. They measure what makes them stronger. They manage risk before it manages them. They build on intelligence, not hope.
