In Episode 164 of the Best Coach Ever podcast, we’re calling out one of the biggest lies online coaches love to tell themselves: “I’m doing everything and nothing’s working.” Babe… are you really, though? 😏

If your audience is crickets, your offer’s collecting dust, or your momentum feels more like a flat tire—this episode is your loving reality check. Because chances are, it’s not your strategy… it’s your mindset, your energy, and how you’re showing up (or straight-up hiding).

We’re breaking down why “doing the work” is more than just ticking to-do lists, how your inner drama leaks into your marketing, and why playing it safe is costing you sales. This is your permission slip to stop ghosting your own potential, own your power, and finally show up like the CEO you say you want to be.

Stuck? Discouraged? Thinking about rage-quitting? Hit play. This one’s your mindset reset with a side of tough love.
