    What NOT to focus on when choosing your niche

    Here’s what NOT to focus on when choosing your niche: 1. Other coaches’ niches – It’s tempting to look at what niches are working for other coaches. All that means is they’ve found their perfect fit niche. You want to find the one that’s a perfect fit for you. 2. Your professional background or degrees…

  • Forget What You SHOULD Do

    Forget What You SHOULD Do

    My client was so frustrated and confused about who she wanted to help in her business. She was good at supporting professionals because of her career. So it “made sense” that she’d do that. And then there was who she WANTED to help because of her life experiences and the impact she could make doing…

  • Not signing paid clients?

    Not signing paid clients?

    I’ve been there myself and I’ve helped many clients with this same struggle. Through that work, I’ve learned that there are only three things you need to do to sign paid clients: 1. Get out of niche drama – Feeling confused and uncertain about who you help and what you help them with keeps you stuck.…

  • It’s not always a niche problem.

    It’s not always a niche problem.

    It’s normal to think there is a niche problem when clients are not coming.⁠⁠But more times than not, it has nothing to do with your niche.⁠⁠It’s about you not believing that there are people in your niche who want and are willing to invest in what you’re offering.⁠⁠Your uncertainty comes across in your marketing.⁠⁠It makes…

    It only took 30 minutes on our first call

    Within 30 minutes of our first call, my client decided on the perfect niche. She was telling herself that she didn’t know who to help, but really she did. She was just doubting that those people would want what she was offering. She wanted to help moms get their lives back after having given up…

  • This industry is oversaturated.

    This industry is oversaturated.

    The #1 myth I hear about being a life coach is that this industry is oversaturated. I get clients that say “…but there’s already so many people doing <insert whatever they want to help people with>.” It’s so interesting to me because you don’t hear people saying that about lawyers and doctors. Even within those…

  • The Moment I Decided to Be a Life Coach

    The Moment I Decided to Be a Life Coach

    The moment I decided I wanted to be a life coach, I was watching a video online about how it was the perfect career. The coach’s story sounded exactly like mine:?successful by society’s standards,?yet unfulfilled in her corporate job,?wanting to make more of an impact in the world, ?and feeling like she should be doing more.…

  • Here’s what you need to start your coaching business.

    Forget what you heard. Your gifts, life experiences, and desire to help people make you qualified to help people. It really is that simple.  Fear will make you think otherwise.  I need more experience. I need more certifications or degrees. I need more time.  I know because I was there when I first started. And…

  • Certification is not the answer.

    Certification is not the answer.

    Certification is not THE foundation of being a life coach When it comes to coaching, the foundation of all foundations is your God-given gift. Don’t get me wrong, I’m all for getting certified and learning the foundations of coaching. In fact, I highly recommend it at some point in your coaching journey. However, certification does…

  • The REAL reason you’re on the fence about becoming a life coach

    You feel a “nudge” to become a life coach. It sounds perfect for you, but you’re unsure. But it’s not because you don’t have the time. It’s not because you don’t know who you want to help. It’s not because you think you need to be certified. It’s because you don’t believe you’re good enough.…
