The Kelly Trach Show

In this episode, you'll learn:

Why selling is the highest form of service and how you can help someone. (And, why I wholeheartedly believe that you can’t change someone’s life unless you charge their credit card).

There is a 99.99% chance that your audience will be STOKED to hear about your new offer and genuinely want to learn about it. (Plus, I tell you about the time I sold my first ebook and had to get my boyfriend to read the comments on Facebook because I was worried that people would call me out… when in fact they just congratulated me!)

How to start “putting yourself out there” in small, simple, baby steps. Cuz that’s how progress happens — baby steps not cruising down the black diamond slopes the very first time you slip your feet into skis.

Why sales isn’t that scary IF you know how to do it in a high-vibe way! (Which, I’ll teach ya!)

Why having competition is actually GOOD for business.

About Nishi:

Nishi is an intuition coach, a public health expert, and a certified yoga teacher. Inspired by her work with children through teaching yoga, Nishi wrote A Friendship Story: Heart & Mind to introduce the lesson of presence so that anyone (big or small) can live a more balanced and joyful life. She also created Joy Parade, an online space dedicated to teaching individuals how to access their intuition and apply it to their day-to-day living. The name, Joy Parade, represents the partnership between the intuition (or heart) - where we find our true joy - and the minds - which loves to organize and create structure just like a parade. Nishi makes using intuition accessible, possible, and straightforward! Through 1:1 coaching, she helps individuals wake up from the autopilot mind - its stories, beliefs, and patterns - and connect to their intuition. Her underlying goal is to bring "heartfulness" (the joy of being) to "mindfulness" (being present in everything that we do). Using mindfulness, yoga, and meditation as jumping-off points to then use the power of presence and intuition to handle stress mindfully and with grace, feel good on the inside while getting things done, and trust the natural unfolding of life. Nishi is also the director of The Lively Community Foundation, an organization committed to uncovering the natural wellbeing that exists within everyone through tools, education, and community. Nishi has a bachelor’s degree in psychology from the University of Michigan and a master’s degree in public health from the University of Illinois at Chicago. With a passion for health and wellness, Nishi has worked with the healthcare nonprofit world for ten years, focusing on the betterment of external conditions for communities to thrive. However, through her journey into yoga training, wellness coaching, and exploring consciousness, she realized that true wellness comes from the inside.

In this episode, you'll learn:

How Nishi became an intuition coach.

Why her intuition coaching business became more successful than her previous business she was running doing nutrition coaching. (And, take notes if you have a business that’s struggling! Her advice on clarity and visibility is GOLDEN).

What intuition means + how to tap into it. (Plus, what a session is like with Nishi as a intuition coach).

How Nishi booked her first paid client.

Some of the mindset blocks that held Nishi back from launching her business. And, how she overcame her concern about not being able to help people for a living AND make money.

How within 3 MONTHS, Nishi did the following: built her website, created two clear coaching packages, got legal agreements in place, hired Kelly for a private intensive, hired Jena Thielges of Sundai Studio to do her branding, created a freebie, started her email list, launched her published book, launched her site, and got her first PAID client!

Her advice for the creative gal who is listening and wants to run her own digital-biz based on her soul's calling, but is SUPER nervous to invest in her dreams and truly go for it.
