"There's a reason why free gym memberships don't work: if you don't put your own skin in the game, you aren't going to prioritize it in your own life."

That's a quote from Alex Durand, our guest on the How to Become a Career Coach podcast.

Alex made this statement talking about how he learned to charge his clients for the coaching sessions.

This thought process helped him (and his clients) to see the value in what he was offering while coaching.

During the conversation that Phillip had with Alex on the podcast, there are a bunch of other great take-aways:

• What is coaching, really?
• Confronting the depression and burnout.
• Connecting the brain and body and know when to make a change - knowing when to take the leap.
• The 'holy s*** what am I doing' moment. Managing the feast or famine cycles
• Clinging to the identity of coach and being a coach.
• Taking action, building value, and delivering valuable services to the client.
