Consulting with Ryan Honick

The system works.
Allegedly.

If the policy, message, or experience looks flawless in the meeting and creates unpaid troubleshooting in real life, Ryan helps find the gap—and turn it into something people can actually use.

Professional persuader. Constructive skeptic. Will ask the question everyone skipped.

02 · Focused consultation

One-to-one. Full attention.

A focused 60-minute conversation for a specific communications, advocacy, or accessibility challenge. No presentation, no pitch—just careful listening, clear thinking, and a useful next move. Ryan sends a concise follow-up recap so you can stay present instead of taking notes.

60 minutes + follow-up recap$400

If cost is the barrier, ask—Ryan keeps limited reduced-rate availability for individual advocates and community-led work.

How Ryan works

Bring the messy version.

No polished brief required. If the problem fit neatly into a brief, you probably would not need Ryan. Bring the context, the tension, and the thing no one can quite explain.

  1. 01
    Say the awkward part out loud.

    What is not working, who knows it, and why everyone has been politely walking around it.

  2. 02
    Find the assumption in charge.

    The invisible rule deciding who the system expects, rewards, overlooks, or asks to do extra work.

  3. 03
    Make one useful move.

    A recommendation people can understand, own, and actually put into practice—without commissioning another task force.

No three-month brain melt required

Bring the problem.
Skip the theater.
