About
I’m Chet Collins, a writer, consultant, and father who believes in living with clarity and purpose. I help people and organizations communicate clearly, make confident decisions, and live their vocations.
Through my firm, ChetComm, I advise leaders on management, systems, and back-office tasks. My goal is simple: to bring clarity to complexity so that leaders and entrepreneurs can focus on what matters most.
My writing explores similar themes: faith, family, and the human journey. I’ve written three books and more than a thousand essays on my blog, Catholic Husband, which I launched in 2013. Each week, I write to encourage others to see the beauty in their ordinary days and to live their vocations with joy and integrity.
At home, I’m a stay-at-home dad to four children. Much of my work happens between schoolwork and chores. Every adult life is chaotic; my joyful chaos grounds both my consulting and my writing.
I’m an avid reader and lifelong learner. Since 2018, I’ve kept a running list of every book I’ve read. I also enjoy creative side projects: recording ChetCast, a podcast that captures our family life; and publishing Applied Bioethics, which brings clarity to today’s most pressing ethical questions.
From my haiku to long-form essays, from podcasts to consulting, all of my work shares the same mission: to offer perspective, encouragement, and practical wisdom for the journey ahead.
