  • #27: The 5 Laws of High-Ticket Coaching with Greg Faxon

    In this episode, Liz interviews Business Growth Coach Greg Faxon. Greg helps coaches fill their client roster so that they can increase their income each and every month. His mission is to provide honest sales and marketing training in an industry where it seems like you have to choose between making money and keeping your integrity as a coach. Greg started coaching when he was only 22 years old. By 24 he had done  over six figures in annual sales. Now he helps other coaches get clear  on their specialty, generate more leads, and easily enroll their ideal  clients.

    We are excited to have him on the show today, not only to talk about his amazing journey as a coach and his expert advice on how to grow your coaching business but also because we know that Greg has strong opinions about our current pandemic, what that means for you as a coach and how to thrive in uncertain times.

  • #26: Pilar Lesko on Building a Coaching Business as Unique as You Are

    In this episode, Liz interviews Pilar Marie Lesko. It’s not easy to describe who Pilar is and what she does in her coaching practice. It’s simply magic. She likes to call herself Sacred Business Guide, Bridge, Mystic, Oracle, and Modern-Day Medicine Woman. And when it comes to success in business, Pilar is completely defying the odds: despite her small email list and regular extended breaks from social media, she recently had her first $50k month as a coach with her 1-on-1 work, group programs and digital products.

    We are extremely intrigued by the way Pilar does business, most importantly how she believes that your frequency determines your success in business much much more than your actions. It is about your being rather than your doing.

    In this episode, we dive deeper into Pilar’s story, how she carved her own path and how to manage your energy as a coach. This episode is one of our favourite episodes ever and a must-listen for every coach who doesn’t want to put themselves into a box, wants to do things completely different and might have been called crazy for it. It’s also a true gem for anyone who wants to bring spirituality into their coaching business, both with clients but also just in the way you do business.
