So you want to make a good living as a business coach—not just cover your bills, but actually create a life where you don’t flinch when your card gets declined for buying oat milk. Cool. Let’s talk about how to do that without turning into a walking LinkedIn cliché. First, understand this: coaching isn’t just […]

Let’s be real—technology is like that friend who’s both wildly helpful and incredibly annoying. One minute it’s helping you automate emails while you sip your third coffee, and the next it’s crashing in the middle of a Zoom pitch to your biggest client (because obviously). But love it or hate it, here’s the deal: technology

Let’s be honest: the world doesn’t need another business coach spewing recycled advice about “unlocking potential” while secretly Googling what that even means. If you’re here, I’m assuming you want to be better—not just look better. Big difference. One sells fluff. The other builds something that actually works (and gets your clients to stop ghosting

Let’s get the cliché out of the way: yes, becoming a business coach can give you freedom, flexibility, and the chance to work in sweatpants without judgment. But if that’s your only motivation, there are easier ways (consulting, online courses, becoming a TikTok guru with a ring light and a dream). So, why business coaching?

Let’s face it: these days, if you’re not online, you barely exist. Harsh? Maybe. True? Absolutely. Whether you’re running a business, building a brand, or launching something new, social media isn’t optional—it’s oxygen. But here’s the catch: posting random things whenever you feel inspired isn’t a strategy. That’s called winging it. And while winging it

Let’s be real—most business owners avoid succession planning like it’s a trip to the dentist. It’s one of those I-know-it’s-important-but-let’s-talk-about-it-later topics. And then “later” turns into “oops, I should’ve planned this years ago.” Here’s the truth: every business will transition someday. Whether you’re retiring, selling, or (let’s be blunt) not around anymore, someone is going

Let’s cut to the chase—overworking yourself into exhaustion isn’t a badge of honor. It’s a slow-motion train wreck. Yet, so many people treat burnout like some twisted achievement, as if running on fumes proves dedication. (Spoiler: It doesn’t. It just proves you need better boundaries.) If you want to be successful and sane, work-life balance

Let’s be honest—business is basically a game of who does it better. And if your clients don’t know what their competitors are up to, they’re playing blindfolded (which, in case you were wondering, is a terrible strategy). That’s where competitive analysis comes in: the art of gathering intel, outsmarting rivals, and making sure your clients

Let’s get one thing straight: leadership isn’t about having the right title on your business card or bossing people around (shocking, I know). Leadership is a skill. And just like any other skill—playing the guitar, cooking, or even folding a fitted sheet—you can get better at it with practice. So, if you think you’re born

Let’s talk about that moment when a potential client gives you an excuse for not working with you. Maybe it’s “Now isn’t the right time,” or “I need to think about it,” or the classic “I just don’t have the budget.” And because you’re a decent human being (or at least trying to be), you
