Becoming fully self-employed as a coach is the dream for so many of us, but nobody really warns you about the identity shift that comes with it. The logistics of setting up a business can be quite straightforward but what actually happens internally when you make this jump? That's what we're exploring in this episode.

Tune in to learn:

  • Why going from employed to self-employed is such a significant identity shift (and why it's normal to feel wobbly about it)
  • What you might unexpectedly miss from your employed role -- and how to fill those gaps
  • The habits that can creep in during this transition that quietly undermine your business
  • How to design a working week that supports your life rather than recreating the nine to five
  • Why building self-trust is the most important thing you can do to succeed as a self-employed coach
