How to Build a Referral-Friendly Business with Dr. Kim Foster

Karin Rozell is a business coach for health and wellness coaches. You might know Karin as the business coach who teaches her clients the art of building their own ‘Happy Little Practice‘ rather than focusing on the idea of scaling their business to 7 figures and beyond.  In this episode, she revisits the idea of a ‘Happy Little Practice’ in the context of a world that has changed drastically since the last time she was on the podcast—a world where many health, fitness, and nutrition coaches are flocking to the online space because the feasibility of an in-person practice has become more difficult.  While this opportunity is exciting, it can also be daunting, and this episode is a pep-talk for that. Karin, along with Erin and Laura, discuss the idea of hashing out your contingency plan, doubling down on what you can control, adopting the idea of a ‘Golden Hour,’ setting short-term goals, and acting now (because there is no reason not to).  If you have been feeling a little unsure of how to show up in this ever-changing space, today’s episode might just be the pep talk you need. Tune in to find out!
