TREMENDOUSLY well said, @Mellane, and welcome! There are many others here in QB Community who have gravitated to self-employment for some or all of the reasons you've stated here. And good for you for so specifically identifying your essential values and priorities - worth its weight in gold indeed.
So...you're a former consultant. What's your current business, and how (if at all) has your previous work experience informed your new venture? Would love to hear more about what you're up to!
