Life Coach Launchpad

I didn’t plan it, but at some point, I stopped hiring my copywriter for the day-to-day tasks he’d been handling for me for two years. 

Why? 

ChatGPT stepped in.

Before you roll your eyes and think this is another AI hype podcast, let me explain. 

Back in my early corporate days, there was only one thing I dreaded more than our annual peer review process (👈eventually I grew to love this, btw)…

Annual goal setting.

Now, as a business coach, I really enjoy creating inspiring goals.

But, I know that so many coaches skip goal setting entirely.

Why?

Because it sounds hard.

That’s exactly why I created my extremely concise goal-setting process—to make it simple, effective, and something you’ll actually do.

The Pomodoro Method is a simple strategy that breaks your work into manageable chunks, making it easier to get started and delivers steady progress.

Ending your day intentionally can make a world of difference in how you feel about your progress and how you approach the next morning. If you often feel like work spills into your evenings or that you’re carrying unfinished business into personal time, an end-of-day shutdown sequence could be the solution.

As a life coach, your day is often packed with tasks: client sessions, content creation, marketing, admin work, and your own personal development. It’s a lot to juggle, and without a clear plan, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed and reactive.

Most coaches focus on checking tasks off their to-do list, but that approach can leave you scattered and unable to make meaningful progress. What you really need is a system that brings clarity and structure to your day. That’s where a daily startup sequence comes in.

Today, we are mapping out your ideal week using recurring time blocks.

And, I’m giving you the exact tool I used and have used with clients to plan their ideal week. I call it the YOUR Ideal Week template.

Most of us feel pretty familiar with jotting down tasks, only to see them pile up and somehow never all get done. 

If you’ve ever wondered how to actually clear that list leaving both you and your clients feeling satisfied, that's what this email is about.

The secret? 

Your to-do list captures the “what,” but your calendar makes it happen. 

Time blocking - setting up blocks of time to do a very specific task.

It's the result of prioritizing the work that moves the needle the most, and scheduling it so that it actually gets done.

This is the concept that I teach my clients when they tell me that they want to build something big in their business, but they're having a hard time getting started.

All big things start with daily habits.

Habits start with a cue.

Find the cues that will help you build a thriving coaching business.

When you build a new habit, then build another one... Soon, you have powerful set of systems that makes doing all your work happen automatically.

If you've ever tried to start a new habit, only to have it fizzle out within days or weeks, you have to try this approach.
