Advisory & Consulting
You don’t have to figure it out alone.
You don’t have to have all of the answers to get started.
Let's talk about what you're navigating.
People often come to me not because they lack the capability but because they are carrying too much on their own or don't know where to start. They need a thought partner. They need introductions. My role is to help you identify and focus on the priorities that will move the needle. I can help you gain momentum with confidence and intention. If you’re navigating transition or ready to launch or grow, let’s connect.

Testimonials
"I had the pleasure of working with Anna at the Denver Botanic Gardens and she brings a kind, grounded presence that makes collaboration easy and genuinely enjoyable. One of Anna’s real strengths is her ability to see what’s going on beneath the surface. She helped us sort through competing needs, asked smart questions, and offered ideas that were both creative and practical. Anna facilitated a strategy session that was focused and extremely fruitful but still light and fun - and we walked away with clarity we hadn’t been able to reach on our own. What stood out most was how much she cared about understanding our work, our values, and the direction we wanted to go. Every suggestion she made connected back to what mattered to us. We wholeheartedly recommend Anna to anyone looking to clarify their ideas, strengthen their business or nonprofit, and build both short-term and long-term plans with confidence." - Melissa Schaap
"Working with Anna has been an absolute joy. Her genuine warmth and strategic insight made every session both energizing and productive. She has an incredible ability to cut through surface-level requests and help us clarify what we truly needed, offering creative, values-driven ideas that always aligned with our vision. I am truly grateful for the thoughtful partnership she brought to our work together and I highly recommend her to anyone looking to grow their business or organization with clarity and intention." - Michelle Sugerman
“I’ve owned and operated a small box subscription business for 4 years now. When I launched the business in 2018 it took off like wildfire and the momentum continued to gain more and more speed. The Pandemic took place and as other small businesses needed to adjust we found ourselves acting accordingly. Almost to the point of thinking to close our doors. I reached out to Anna Costello for some sound advice as I was inspired by Ship Sunshine and how it continued to thrive. After our first three meetings, my business began to see an entirely different light and change. Since then we have been able to open new product lines and our growth has been steady. The information, resources, and creative ideas we gathered collectively have helped increase the bottom line and allowed for more value to be provided to the marketplace. Thank you, Anna!” - Emily Mckissick Diaz

Plus, she’s pure sunshine to work with!” - Erin King
