  • #232: The 90-Day Plan I Use Every Year to Grow My Coaching Business

    If you’ve ever kicked off January thinking, “Okay… now what?”—this episode is for you.

    Most coaches wait until late December (or January itself) to figure out what they’re offering, where they’re showing up, and how they’re going to make money in the new year.

    The problem?
    Your future clients don’t wait.

    They’re already out there—setting goals, looking for support, and deciding who they’re going to invest in before January even starts.

    In this episode, I’m walking you through the exact 90-day visibility and profit planning process I’ve used for the last seven years to go from feeling unsure day‑to‑day… to starting every year with clarity, confidence, and a real plan.

    I’m also sharing how I use my 90-Day Visibility & Profit Worksheet to reverse‑engineer my offers, content, and visibility—without being everywhere or doing all the things.

    In this episode, you’ll learn:

    • Why waiting until January actually puts you behind
    • How to set realistic profit goals—and reverse‑engineer them into action
    • Why choosing one focus platform builds momentum faster than chasing trends
    • How to turn your offer into content that builds trust before you sell

  • #231: Instagram Content Tips For Life Coaches (2026 Algorithm Update)

    With AI doing more of the heavy lifting and the Instagram algorithm giving users more control over what they see, your dream clients can now literally tell the app, “Nope, don’t show me this kind of post again.”

    Which sounds great as a user.
     As a life coach trying to get clients? That hits differently.

    In this episode, I break down what the 2026 Instagram algorithm changes really mean for life coaches and how to create content that still gets seen, saves you from shouting into the void, and actually leads to paying clients.

    We will talk about:

    • How AI and the Reels algorithm decide what content gets pushed out
    • What high value content actually looks like for life coaches in 2026
    • Why vague messaging like “I help women feel more confident” is not enough anymore. 

    Mentioned in this episode

    🎁 Free 7 Step Coaching Biz Roadmap
    Want help tightening up your message and turning your content into a client getting system?


    👉 Grab the free roadmap here


    It will walk you through the foundations you need so your content is not just “nice” but actually leads somewhere.


    📞 Interested in working together?

     After you grab the roadmap, you will have the option to book a strategy call with me. 

    On that call, we will look at where your visibility is getting stuck, what you actually want your coaching business to do for you, and whether it makes sense to work together.


    If you enjoy this episode, hit follow, leave a quick review, or share it with another coach who is tired of feeling like the algorithm has them on mute.

  • #227: Where to Find Coaching Clients (It’s Not Just LinkedIn)

    You’ve probably heard this one before:
     “My clients are women in career transition, so I should be on LinkedIn… right?”

    Not so fast, coach.

    In this episode, I’m breaking down one of the biggest myths I hear from life, career, and leadership coaches — the belief that your audience is only on LinkedIn because of their job title.

    Your dream clients are humans first, professionals second.


    They hang out at book clubs, soccer fields, cooking classes, and yes… maybe the occasional LinkedIn scroll.

    But if you’re only showing up where you think they should be, you’re missing where they actually are.

    In this episode, you’ll learn:

    • Why assuming “LinkedIn = professional clients” is a marketing trap
    • Where your clients are actually spending their time (and attention)
    • How to rethink your visibility strategy so you can connect — not chase

  • #223: Why More Information Isn’t Growing Your Biz (and What You Actually Need Instead)

    Doors are open this week for Coaching Biz Builder — my 8-week roadmap for new life coaches to go from “I’m trying to figure this out” to signing clients with clarity and confidence. 

    Enrollment is open for a few days only → Join Coaching Biz Builder

    If more information were the answer, you’d be booked out by now. Between Facebook groups, YouTube, free downloads, and ChatGPT, you’ve collected a mountain of tips—but still feel stuck. In this episode, I break down why information overload keeps you spinning and what actually gets you clients: clarity, strategy, and support (aka integration).

    You’ll hear real examples of “fragmented tactics” (reels, LinkedIn articles, cold DMs, funnels, ManyChat, freebies) and why they stall out without a clear niche, message, offer, and client-path. Then I walk you through what to focus on instead so your actions turn into discovery calls and paying clients.

    🔑 What You’ll Learn

    • Why information ≠ integration: the real reason random tips aren’t moving your business forward
    • How to pick the right strategy for your current stage (and ignore “do everything” pressure)
    • The 3 essentials that create momentum: clarity (niche, message, offer), strategy (visibility → conversations → clients), and support (personalized feedback to fix leaks)
    • Freebie & funnel pitfalls and how to connect them to an offer people actually buy
    • A simple lens to evaluate any tactic so you stop wasting time and start booking calls
