Laid off twice, I said ‘enough!’ and became my own boss. No, I wasn’t a CPO – a Senior PM like many of you. Now, after 8 years and $24 million in revenue, I’m here to share the secrets of independent product consulting and coaching. Learn how to build a thriving business, even if you’re not ready to quit your day job. This session is for anyone curious about life after the traditional product management career.
Join us at ProductCamp Atlanta 2024 to vote on this session and dozens of others! The attendees will choose the agenda for the day, and can be part of it!

I’m Jackie and I learned Product Management the hard way! I made mistakes along my journey – but through failure comes learning – and ultimately, I learned to build scalable, profitable, and delightful product experiences from Startups to Scale-ups to Fortune 500’s. I’ve also won some pretty cool awards, including a Facebook Innovation Award and Atlanta’s 40 under 40. A career highlight was being invited to attend Silicon Valley Product Group’s Coach the Coaches cohort in NYC as 1 of 50 Product Management Coaches around the world!
8 years ago, I co-founded Option 1 Partners – a boutique consulting, staffing, and recruiting firm that offers strategic guidance and hands-on support to startups, SMB’s, and enterprises.
I am also the co-founder of The Brave Start where our mission is to empower Product professionals to turn their product expertise into rewarding and fulfilling business opportunities via our program, The Product Coach Academy. We will help you launch and grow your product coaching + consulting practice with confidence – so that you can achieve the freedom, joy, and income you deserve!
ProductCamp Atlanta is a collaborative, participant-organized professional unconference, focused on Product Management, Marketing and UX topics. What’s great is the variety of sessions that are offered by our attendees. You’ll have the option to select from several different sessions throughout the day.
