This week, we’ll continue the Real Health Coach series with Maggie Christopher who is a holistic nutrition counselor and licensed associate marriage and family counselor in St. Paul, MN. Maggie has a completely full health coaching practice (with a waiting list!) focused around emotional eating. She shares exactly how she started her health coaching practice (even though she’d just moved to a new state where she didn’t know anyone!), how she found her first clients, what her marketing looks like now — and also a really cool strategy for creating a small practitioner referral group (that you can use no matter where you live!). If you’re a new health coach – or if you could use a few more clients to fill your practice – you’re going to love this interview.

Corporate wellness programs have come a long way since the wellpreneur podcast started three years ago. Much more mainstream, robust and widely accepted, companies are taking a hard work at the wellbeing of their employees in the success of their business. This week I have Lawrence Mitchell on the show (for his second interview) to give us an update on the progress of the Living Well program he started three years ago, as well as tips and advice on starting a wellbeing program within your own corporate environment. If you’re currently working in corporate and would love to start a wellbeing program, or if you’re looking to contact other corporations about creating a program, this episode will give you lots of tips and advice!

In today’s episode, I hope to get all of you inspired to grow your wellness business with an in-depth interview that goes into the details of how to start out strong and grow your business quickly!

Health counselor Tracy Harrison serves as a great example for new Wellpreneurs – from the very beginning she just went for it and put herself out there, and her business thrived as a result. She took some bold steps to commit to her new path, ended up doing 30 public speaking engagements in her first year of business, and worked with over 20 clients before she even finished her coaching training program!

We talk about how she got her clients from speaking gigs, how she transitioned her in-person clients to virtual sessions, and one of my favorite topics – your email newsletter, how to take advantage of it, and why it should be one of your top priorities!

This week I have another great interview in Real Wellpreneur series, and my guest is Sachiko Marchand, holistic food coach, dietitian, nutritionist, and founder of Holistic Food Journey. Sachiko was actually one of my clients, and when we first met she was doing personal chef services and cooking classes in a few countries before settling down in Australia, but we transformed her business by shifting it online and allowing her to grow this worldwide community. She is now working less with having a lot more impact and generating more income, her work is much more fun, and she’s spending more time with her family, which is her top priority. Sachiko is such an inspiration! She has proven that you absolutely CAN find time to grow your business even when you are having small children and take care of your family. She’s experienced incredible growth in her business: she has a thriving online community, a few very popular courses, published book, and we talk about that whole amazing journey. Sachiko will share some of the financial aspects of growing her business. I think you’ll find this interview really inspiring, especially if you feel like you can’t balance the time between your work and your family or have trouble transitioning to growing your business from your day job. And actually when we finished the interview we kept chatting and talking about market research and how important it was for her while she’d been developing her programs – so I decided to record that part as well and add it to today’s episode as I think you’ll find it super valuable to hear how you can zero down on your audience. So get your notebook ready because there’s tons of goodness in today’s interview. I know you’ll enjoy it!

When you’re starting a health coaching practice, it’s easy to fall into the trap of simply copying other coaches. But instead of just creating what you think a health coaching business ‘should’ look like – what if you were able to create a business that truly aligned with YOU? Today’s guest has a really powerful message about fearlessness, following your gut, and taking those leaps of faith to create the kind of business you really want.

Julie Santiago left Wall Street two years ago to start her health coaching business, and earned nearly 6 figures in her first year! Despite the immense success, she felt something still wasn’t right and she was burning out. She decided to start over and rebrand herself, working on a much more sustainable and authentic level.

Julie shares her journey – the success, the lessons learned – and how we can bring our unique strengths into our businesses to create a more authentic business.

Jen Morris is a certified health coach and co-founder of Urban Detox Club, an online food-based program helping clients to lose weight and create a permanent healthy lifestyle. Jen started her health coaching business working with clients one-on-one, but quickly realized the limits on how many clients she could see (and the frustration of rushing between appointments and last-minute cancellations). That’s what sparked Jen and her business partner to start Urban Detox Club. I was especially interested to have Jen on the podcast because while the program is online – her marketing and client-generation is mainly done offline – in person, through networking events and referrals. In our interview, we talk specifics about networking, referrals, how not to be afraid of your competitors, and how to shift your existing programs from in-person to online.

“Relax, your life is much bigger than this moment.” That’s the reminder Meghan Telpner used to keep on her desk to give her perspective while growing her business. During this week’s interview we’re talking about how Meghan started her popular blog, how she stays healthy while growing her business (including her own morning routine!), and what she’d do differently if she was starting again today.

This week we have another installment in our #RealWellpreneur series. I’m speaking with Jill Grunewald, a health coach who specializes in thyroid and hormonal health. In this episode we’re talking about how you can build a successful health coaching practice as an introvert by doing 1-on-1 coaching and using writing as a big way to attract clients. Jill talks about how she built her business slowly and steadily and without all the hype around online marketing, but with the use of writing for magazines and other publications to get the word out about her business. So if you are struggling with the thought whether it is possible to really make it as a health coach today, you are going to love this interview because Jill is here to say YES, and share with us how she’s doing it.
