How to Overcome Mental Blocks and Unlock Your True Performance Potential I recently had one of those conversations that makes me want to share everything I learned as quickly as possible. My guest was Dr. Tom Rohrer, director of the Brain and Body Performance Center in Colorado Springs, and a mental performance coach, psychotherapist, and trainer who works primarily with athletes and public performers. What he shared about why we get stuck and how to get unstuck is directly applicable to coaches and entrepreneurs, and it is far more accessible than most people expect. Tom opened with something that I think a lot of coaches need to hear: almost no one makes it to adulthood without some version of what...
How to Stand Out as a Coach (Stop Apologizing for Your Depth) The Depth You’ve Been Apologizing For Is Your Differentiator How many times have you started to say something and then pulled back? Softened it. Made it sound more like what you thought someone wanted to hear. Maybe it was in your bio. Maybe in a sales conversation. Maybe in a piece of content you almost published and then rewrote until it sounded safer. The thing you keep editing out is usually the thing people need most. You’ve Been Editing Out the Real Thing For a long time, I described what I do as: I help people start and build coaching businesses. That isn’t wrong. But it...
I had a conversation recently that completely reframed something I thought I already understood. My guest was Dr. Abiola Oladoke, founder of ONA Wellness Group, and she introduced me to a concept called metabolic leadership. By the end of our conversation, I was looking at coach burnout in a way I never had before. Here is what stopped me: one of Dr. Abiola's clients was a coach who could not bring herself to make her sales calls. She was always finding something else to do. Running errands. Doing housework. There was always a reason. Most coaches, and honestly, I would have been in this camp too, would call that a mindset problem. Dr. Abiola called it a clue. Your Body...
Build a Coaching Business Your Way - What That Actually Looks Like in Practice Why the Step-by-Step Coaching Blueprint Isn't Working for You Here's a question worth sitting with. Have you ever followed a program or a framework correctly - done the steps, showed up, put in the work - and still felt like something was off? Not that you failed. Just that it felt like wearing someone else's shoes. It fit well enough to walk in. But it was never quite right. And after a while, you got a blister. If that sounds familiar, this episode is about why - and what to do instead. Why the Blueprint Feels Wrong Most business blueprints are not built for you....
How to Find and Fix Revenue Leaks in Your Coaching Business I had a conversation recently that gave me a fresh way of looking at something coaches struggle with constantly: the feeling that you are doing everything right and still not getting the results you want. My guest was Jennifer R. Glass, a 25-year business growth veteran who has built a whole diagnostic framework around exactly this problem. She calls it revenue friction, and once she explained it, I could see it everywhere. Revenue friction, as Jennifer describes it, isn’t about working harder or having a better offer. It is about the hidden gaps in your process, your positioning, your marketing, and your sales conversations that are quietly leaking...
