A conversation about what it looks like to keep building a coaching business while navigating major life changes — and the resilience, nervous system work, and self-trust that rebuilding requires.

In this episode, I’m joined by Caren Cooper, the “Disco Ball Coach,” who helps women reconnect with themselves, regulate their nervous systems, and shine fully in their lives after years of people-pleasing, survival mode, and living as the “good girl.”

What we explored:

• Caren’s journey from corporate life into transformational coaching
• The inner work that helped her shift from survival mode into self-expression
• Why regulating the nervous system is foundational when building a business
• The reality of stepping back from a business when life demands it
• How scarcity, shame, and identity shifts show up when rebuilding
• Why asking for support is essential when learning the business side

Building a meaningful practice doesn’t happen in isolation — and sometimes the most powerful leadership move is stepping back, regulating, and trusting the process so the work can grow sustainably.
