Coach Smarter: Build a Thriving Health Coaching Business

The Hidden Mistakes Preventing You From Growing Your Coaching Business


Listen Later

Most coaches don’t actually have a time management problem—they have a decision-making problem. And if you don’t get a handle on it, your business will start running you instead of the other way around.

If you’ve ever said, “I need to get [X] done, but I just don’t have time”, this episode is for you. My guest, Scott Maderer, sees this all the time—coaches who sacrifice family time, skip meals, or take on last-minute clients because they feel like they have to

But the truth is, every time you say, “I have to”, you reinforce a false obligation that keeps you stuck.

In today’s episode, we’ll break down the hidden mistakes keeping you overworked and underpaid—and how to fix them so you can take back control of your coaching business.

By the End of This Episode, You'll Know:

✅ Why saying "I have to" is keeping you trapped—and what to say instead
✅ How to set boundaries with clients (without losing them)
✅ The simple mindset shift that will instantly free up your time
✅ Why your schedule isn’t the problem—your choices are
