Growing a coaching business alongside caring responsibilities, having to work another job or even just being able to have a life - can be challenging. 

In this week's episode of The Wholehearted Business Show I’m sharing some tips, ideas and strategies for managing the juggle, especially if you’re in the first 1-2 years of your coaching business.

Tune in to learn:

• Discover the simple mindset shift that makes growing your coaching business alongside a busy life actually achievable.
• Learn why reconnecting with your “why” could be the secret to staying consistent even when time is scarce.
• Find out why focusing on consistency and energy can be more powerful than working endless hours.
• Uncover practical strategies like batching and smart scheduling that can supercharge your productivity without burning out.
• Explore growth “hacks” that speed up your coaching business while still keeping your life balanced.

If you are a health or life coach who feels like you’re burning yourself out trying to keep up with what everyone else says your coaching business should look like, this episode is for you.

If you’re used to consuming a lot of content online, it can be very confusing and overwhelming when it comes to the ‘right and wrong’ way to grow a coaching business. Like online influencers who often portray an idealised and unrealistic presentation of reality, sometimes the same thing can be said about the online coaching space.

In this show, I’m going to help you de-influence your coaching business so you can drop the ifs and buts and focus on what is right for you and your business. 

Tune in to learn:

• Why chasing six or seven figures might be sabotaging your joy – and what truly defines a successful coaching business
• The surprising truth about low ticket offers and funnels – do you really need them to grow your business?
• Why social media and paid ads are optional, and how stepping away from them can actually help you thrive
• The secret power of a “cosy coaching business” – why smaller, joyful, aligned work can outperform the hustle
• How to design a coaching business that fits your life, not someone else’s version of success

Over the last couple of years, I have been on quite a journey in my business. There have been moments of doubt, frustration, and deep questioning. But there have also been some profound shifts. These mindset and energetic changes have completely transformed how I show up in my business and, as a result, the kind of outcomes I am seeing. They have moved me into a very different energetic space, and that shift has had a direct impact on my income, the number of clients I attract, and the sales I make.

In this episode I’m going to share my own experience of navigating all of those feelings, and the three energy and mindset upgrades that have genuinely helped me attract more clients, increase my income, and make sales in a way that feels more aligned and sustainable.

Tune in to learn:

• How letting go of financial victimhood transformed my income and client flow
• The surprising mindset shift that helped me finally trust my expertise
• Why self doubt was quietly sabotaging my business - and how I stopped it
• One practical tool that keeps me grounded when rejection or setbacks hit
• The hidden connection between personal energy and business results you cannot ignore

If you feel like you are doing all the right things to make your coaching business work, or perhaps you know there are things you are not doing but you cannot quite identify what they are, then this is for you.

Very often, I speak to coaches who are showing up consistently, posting content, offering calls, and genuinely trying, yet something still is not clicking. They are not attracting clients, or results feel patchy and unsustainable.

In this episode, I am going to share the top five things I see, time and time again, in my work as a business mentor for coaches that keep people stuck and stop their business from working. These are patterns I have seen over the last ten years, with my clients and in my own business too.

Once you can identify what is really going on, you can make small but powerful shifts that change everything.

Tune in to learn:

• Why your energy could be silently sabotaging your results and what to do about it.
• The subtle messaging mistakes that stop clients from seeing your true value.
• How audience size can make or break your coaching business - and what most coaches overlook.
• The visibility gaps that keep you out of sight, even if you’re posting consistently.
• Why working harder isn’t enough without a proper system and engine to run your business.

In this fourth and final blog post of a short series looking at the key areas of your business you need to focus on for growth in 2026, we’re delving into how to create content that builds connection. This is actually a short training I created for a previous online program but I wanted to share it here for free so you can get the best, most concise information on how to improve the way you create content to market your coaching business.

Tune in to learn:

• Discover the three content types every successful 2026 coaching business relies on -  and why most coaches only ever use one of these types
• Why “being yourself” is the most powerful (and most misunderstood) content strategy,  and how to do it without oversharing or burning out.
• The counter-intuitive truth about consistency: what it really means, and how to build a system that actually supports your creativity instead of shutting it down.
• How to weave your lived experience and values into your content so clients instantly feel that spark of resonance and trust.
• The secret to creating connection-rich content without boxing yourself into a tiny niche or pretending to be someone you’re not.
