Just to see if you can

Have you ever worked towards something just to see if you could do it?

It can be something small-ish... like learning a new hobby, learning a musical instrument, or doing a 30-day writing challenge 🙂

Or it can be something big, like building a house, saving for a big purchase, going on a big trip.

Or, of course, building a business.

I realized recently that I've done this my whole life.

I didn't realize it at the time, but I earned my Ph.D. just to see if I was smart enough.

(It's not about smarts, btw. It's really just one huge lesson in perseverance)

I didn't have a big major dream of becoming a psychologist.

I just love human beings and I love to understand what makes us all tick.

And while I love helping coaches build their businesses so they can help others, a large part of wanting to get to six figures was to see if I could do it.

Could I build a business that supports me comfortably so that I never have to work for someone else again? 

(Because working for others hasn't gone so well 😉

My next goal is to build my business to seven figures.

And, of course, the idea of helping thousands of coaches build their businesses so they can help millions of people thrills me.

But part of me just wants to see if I can do it. 

Can I build a 7 figure business?

Do the things I need to do?

Learn the things I need to learn?

Do I have it in me?

So, I invite you to look at your own goals.

Are any of them on the list just to see if you can do it?

With love & joy,

Sometimes when I talk to coaches, they tell me they’re trying to grow their coaching business.But then when we dig into what they’re doing on a weekly basis…It becomes clear that what they’re really doing is creating an expensive hobby for themselves.It usually looks something like this… (based on my first few years in “business”

Do you want a hobby or a business?

Several years ago, I signed up for a course on selling from a coach who promised we could increase our conversion rates by 50%. That would be amazing if it were true. But it wasn’t.At least for me. About every 10 minutes in the course, I thought, “There’s NO WAY I’m doing that.”Her approach was hard selling at

How do you want to sell?

Recently I set the record straight that growing a business can be simple, but not always easy. And like many things that are difficult, it’s worth it. Because on the other side of this challenge is a more confident and more capable you. And a life where you make good money doing meaningful work that you love. Now to get there,

Tired of selling yourself as a coach?

Yesterday a gal on Instagram sent me a DM after she’d read one of my posts… “What the heck is a coaching framework?” Great question! If you’ve been around for awhile, you’ve probably heard me mention how important it is to have your own proprietary, unique to you coaching framework. But… what exactly is it? Simply put, a Coaching Framework

What the heck is a coaching framework?

A few days ago, I was talking with a friend who’s been struggling to find new clients. She’s a very smart and accomplished woman. She’d led a very successful career working her way up the ladder in a well-known Fortune 500 company. And then she left her corporate career to go off on her own and start
