You Are the Magic You're Waiting For

Do you get to the end of the day and feel like you’ve spent a ton of time and energy on your business but have nothing to show for it?

Perhaps you find yourself getting stuck in a cycle of procrastination and analysis paralysis.

You feel mentally exhausted…but are no closer to getting the clients and creating the income you desire in your business.

Frustrating, right?

If you’re nodding your head, know you’re not alone.

I hear this from coaches ALL THE TIME.

The good news is that you can have a successful coaching business by working smarter, not harder.

The key is being efficient with your time and energy so that you accomplish the tasks that will actually move the needle forward in your business.

And the even better news is that when you work in this way, you go from feeling overwhelmed and unproductive to focused and accomplished.

Woohoo!

In this week’s episode, I share the 7 steps you can take to double, maybe even triple or quadruple your productivity in your coaching business.

And the key here is the word ‘productive’ which according to the Oxford dictionary means ‘achieving or producing a significant amount or result’ so yes, this means getting clients and making income in your business.

We live in a world where we're taught that more equals better.

Where the more complicated something is, the more valuable we believe it is.

And yes, this same thinking is applied to our business.

We are led to believe that in order to be successful, we should:

• Outsource as much work as possible (aka: hire a bunch of people)
• Create a bunch of programs
• Market EVERYWHERE and as often as possible
• Use a bunch of complicated technology and systems to market and run our businesses

I’ve been a coach for almost a decade and I can tell you from experience that none of this stuff really matters when it comes to building a successful coaching business. In fact, a lot of it can actually keep you stuck spinning your wheels and wasting your precious time and energy.

I’ve found that simplicity is key. Simplicity allows you to focus. And focus allows you to move forward without the overwhelm. And it allows you to become really good at what you do.

Let’s say goodbye to complication and hello to simple and streamlined.

Want to find out how? That is exactly what I share in this week’s video. I share the 6 things you need to grow your coaching business in a way that efficient, overwhelm free and actually works!

You only have to spend about 5 minutes on social media before you are bombarded with messages about how much money you should be making in your coaching business…

Make $5K in 30 days

$10K months

$100K year

7 figures

And then you’re told things like…

Offer ‘high ticket’ programs

Work with ‘premium’ clients

I can show you exactly how to make $10K in the next 60 days following this EXACT strategy

Yadda yadda yadda

I’ve been in the coaching industry from almost a decade and I can tell you from experience that this is all a bunch of B.S.

Not that this isn’t possible. It is.

You CAN create a profitable business. You can make 6 figures and beyond.

But the path to get there is what really matters and the marketing we see often doesn’t accurately portray what this journey looks like or how long it takes to get there…

Expecting that you should ‘make $10K in 60 days’ as a new coach is setting an unrealistic expectation (possible, but not the reality for 99.9% of people) and this quick rush is not setting you up for long term success, sustainability and enjoyment in your business. It’s setting you up to crash and burn….not what you want, right?

So what’s the truth about making money in your coaching business? How do we become truly ‘wealthy’ as a coach?

That’s exactly what I’m going to share with you in this episode.

Which platform is better for building your coaching business? YouTube or Podcasts?

And should you consider using either of these platforms or is it more effective to stick to social media such as Facebook and Instagram?

I posted my first YouTube video six years ago.

Since then I’ve created hundreds of videos.

And then last year I felt the desire to experiment with podcasting, so I gave myself a bit of a break from creating videos and instead created some podcasts.

I’ve now created 13 podcasts and felt called to reflect on my experience of using both platforms, YouTube and Podcasts.

I really enjoy both platforms and think they are effective tools for building your business.

I do think that YouTube has some important advantages over podcasts which is why I decided to switch back to creating YouTube videos (for now) but provide you with the option to listen to it as a podcast.

In this week’s episode I share why I think both YouTube and Podcasts are powerful tools for the long term growth of your business. I also share why I think YouTube has some advantages over podcasting.

If I asked you why you weren’t getting the results you want in your business, what would your response be?

It may be….

• I don’t know what I’m doing wrong
• I don’t know where to get started
• I’m scared to put myself out there
• I’m not confident in my coaching skills
• I’m overwhelmed
• I don’t know how to get more clients
• I need more motivation/accountability

These may seem like valid reasons…

But if you find yourself saying any of these things, the underlying reason you’re not getting the results you want is because of self-sabotage.

I may be true that you need support. Not getting the support you know you need is self-sabotage.

When it comes to getting the results you want in your business, and really in all areas of your life, you have the power within you to make it happen.

The question is, are you giving your power away?

If you don’t have the results you want in any area of your life, then the answer is YES.

But often we are not aware of all the ways that we’re giving our power away (also known as self-sabotage).

When you become aware of this, you can choose differently. Choose to wield your power in a way that gets you want you want in life.

This is what you want, right?

So how do you end self-sabotage and use your power to create the business and life you want? That’s exactly what I share with you in this week’s podcast.

Happy new year!

As we dive into 2023, I want to talk about a topic that is near and dear to my heart…changing your mind.

Changing your mind gets a bad rap.

Often we think that changing your mind means that you’re:

• Wishy washy
• Not committed
• Are a quitter
• Throwing away time and/or money
• Irresponsible, unreliable and unsatiable

And because we believe these things…or are afraid of other people believing these things about us, we avoid changing our minds or changing our paths.

This leads us to living a life where we feel unsatisfied and don’t fulfill our full potential.

In this week’s podcast I share my journey with changing my mind, and yes, I’ve done it a lot in all areas of my life: my career, my relationships, my health, my finances and where I live…

I also talk about why giving yourself permission to change your mind is a very good thing and how to know when you’re changing your mind for the right reasons….this is super important.

Happy holidays and almost new year!

I spent the holidays in Wisconsin with my family.

It was the perfect mix of family bonding and chilling…two Christmas dinners, a trip to the children’s museum, a night out downtown, Christmas cookie decorating, watching Home Alone and a partridge in a pear tree. :)

We’re headed back to Colorado today to ring in the new year.

As I reflect on all that I’ve learned this past year, my biggest lesson has been in abundance.

Specifically what abundance REALLY means to me.

We throw around the word abundance a lot in the coaching industry.

We all want a business and life that are abundant, right?

And although I’ve made plenty of money in my business for the past six years, I haven’t felt abundant.

WHY?

This year I did the reflection necessary to figure out what exactly was ‘off’ and worked on creating a business and life that felt TRULY abundant.

I’m sharing all that I’ve learned about abundance in this week’s podcast.

The truth is that most of us care what other people think of us.

We want other people to:

• Support us
• Be proud of us
• Cheer us on
• Agree with us
• Believe in us
• Think that everything we do is amazing

And we especially want this when it comes to our business, because being an entrepreneur can feel especially scary and vulnerable.

It’s a big deal to put yourself out there.

So when other people start doubting you or criticizing you, it can feel like a real blow to your self-confidence.

You may start to doubt yourself and think…

• I don’t really have what it takes
• This is a silly idea
• I'm selfish
• This is irresponsible
• I don’t know enough
• Nobody will pay me that much
• This new offer will never sell
• If I do what I want in my business, I won’t get clients
• I’m going to fail…and everyone is going to judge me and laugh at me

Any of this sounding familiar?

If so, this week’s podcast is for you!

In this episode I share the sneaky ways you’re letting the thoughts and opinions of others determine your life path.

Once you see this clearly, and decide that you’re done with this silliness, you will be FREE to be and do what YOUR heart desires. Yay! :)

Most of my clients are introverts and hate the idea of being loud and pushy to be seen.

They don’t want to:

• Spend all day glued to their computer.
• Do silly reels that feel totally inauthentic.
• Post every detail of their lives on social media.
• Stalk people online and sneakily pretend they want to be their friend or send them random messages.

The good news is you don’t have to do ANY of this silly jazz to market your business and get clients.

You do need to get visible, but you can do it in a way that FEELS good to you.

This is absolutely essential.

Doing marketing that feels ‘icky’ or exhausting will never work in the long run. You will end up burning out and wanting to quit.

In this week’s podcast I share all that I’ve learned over the past 10 years about how to market your coaching business effectively.

You’ll learn the 5 key things you must have in place to get clients. And I share the systems I use that have allowed me to build and sustain a multi-6 figure business for the past 5 years…without doing anything icky or energy draining.

Let’s talk about passive income programs/products.

They sound so sexy, right?

Who doesn’t want income just rolling into their bank account without having to lift a finger?

But this is the truth…there is no such thing as truly ‘passive’ income when it comes to running a coaching business.

Even if you have a product that doesn’t require your time and energy, you still are the one who is responsible for marketing that product.

Many coaches hear about creating ‘passive income’ products and think this is the key to making their dreams come true.

And although there is nothing wrong with creating these programs, often they end up not selling, not helping your clients get results and not helping you make money.

So what really is the key to creating amazing programs that SELL? And that get your clients results, because this should be the MOST important thing, and often is not when it comes to ‘passive’ income.

In this week’s podcast I share the truth about all things passive income in the coaching industry.
