Jason, one can only hope that people don't see this as a PR/comms story but something MUCH broader than that! I hope that ANYONE who feels compelled to pivot themselves! You go guy! :)

Jason, the proof in your authenticity is that you know that to be an industry- or thought-leader you need to be in the trenches. I've seen too many successful consultants scale then lose themselves and their value. Congrats on your bold move and thanks for sharing your story. It resonates.
