DirectorDST99,
This is certainly a worthwhile goal. College students always need information from experienced professionals on what it's like in the real world. I am a soft skills trainer (I train adults at my workplace on things like communication skills, leadership skills, teamwork, etc.) and I know several people who are now working as independant consultants (although none of them have a target of college students) I also frequently volunteer at my alma mater and give similar presentations.

Couple of questions for you...
1. Do you want to make this a full time job, or will you volunteer your time?

2. What will your 'hook' be? In other words, what will distinguish you from others? Getting published (magazine articles, a book, etc.) is a great way to do this.
Please don't take this as a criticism, but there are hundreds of people out there who will be doing the same thing and you want to make sure you 'stand out' from the competition!

I am a firm believer that when the Lord gives you something he will give you the means to make it happen!!
