  • How to Choose a Career Coach or Program

    I've had two life and business coaches and one therapist. I don't believe I would still be doing what I do without making the investment in their services and programs. However, while I've had fairly good experiences with investing in training, coaches, and programs, I do understand why some people perceive the industry to be a scam.

    In this episode, I share:

    • How I got over my fear of being a fraud coach. 
  • Things you should do before you hire a coach, or invest in a program.
  • How to determine if your coach is legit.
  • Why I quit my first business coaching program
  • Questions you should ask your career before investing in their services
  • Mistakes people make when choosing a coach or career program.

  • Stop Side-Eyeing "The Easy Way Out w/Martice Sutton

    Spoiler Alert: Going through a struggle doesn't always lead to success. So can we just say NO to accepting struggle as a part of the process to achieving next level success in our careers ( as well as our relationships)?  Can we normalize rewarding ourselves  without it being  tied to an outcome or level of productivity? 

    If you ever bought into the idea that you have to struggle or work hard before you reward yourself or achieve success,  you'll want to listen to my latest episode with Martice Sutton. 

    Martice is a social impact consultant and Founder & CEO of Girls Going Global. She's impacted over 5,000 people in the U.S. and around the world. Her work has been recognized by the NonProfit Quarterly Journal, White House United States of Woman as a Changemaker, The Travel Channel, Centric TV, Marie Claire, and Black Enterprise.

    Recently, Martice decided to take a career break in Mexico so, in today's episode, we discuss:

    • Mindset mistakes making your life harder than it needs to be.
  • Limiting thoughts and beliefs that get in the way of living your life to the fullest potential.
  • Warning signs it’s time to take a career break.
  • Why and how she chose Mexico for a career break destination.
