90% of coaches fail in their online coaching business. Here's why—and what you can actually do about it.
Gerald Woollatt spent years figuring out what separates struggling coaches from those who build sustainable practices. This conversation goes deep into the mechanics of coaching that actually works—neuro coaching, self-awareness, and the frameworks that help new coaches avoid the traps that kill most businesses before they start.
We explore why imposter syndrome isn't just a feeling but a pattern that can be interrupted, how AI is reshaping the coaching industry (and why authenticity matters more than ever), and the marketing strategies that don't require you to become someone you're not.
The coach trap isn't about motivation. It's about understanding the systems that keep coaches spinning their wheels—no clients, inconsistent income, advice that doesn't translate to results. Gerald breaks down neuro coaching as a tool for creating awareness around the thought patterns that drive behavior, both for you as a founder and for the clients you serve.
If you're a new coach trying to get coaching clients, or you've been struggling with personal branding for coaches and coach marketing strategy, this episode cuts through the fake coaching advice and gives you something actionable.
