CHRISTIAN LIFE COACH COLLECTIVE~ Impact and Income as a Coach

A WILLING HEART IS YOUR QUALIFICATION - Most people think they need more knowledge before they can guide others, but coaching is built on presence, not perfection. In this episode, we unpack why willingness matters more than expertise and how everyday roles already reflect the posture of a coach. Key Takeaways Anyone can learn the core skills of coaching, including curiosity, non judgment, and hol...

MODERN DAY DISCIPLERS- There is a difference between learning how to coach and becoming the kind of person who can guide transformation. In this episode, I unpack the heart, posture, and responsibility behind Sterling and Stone coaching. This is not about collecting tools or asking better questions. This is about stepping into a role of influence, leadership, and discipleship in everyday life. Coa...

FROM INFORMAL HELP TO INTENTIONAL LEADERSHIP- You are probably already helping people more than you realize. The conversations, the questions, the perspective you offer in everyday moments are not random. They are patterns. And for many women, those patterns are the early evidence of a coaching call. In this episode, we talk about the shift that has to happen, not in skill, but in identity. Moving...

YOU DON’T NEED PERFECTION OR READINESS! A lot of women who start thinking about coaching assume the reason they are hesitating is because they don’t know enough yet. But in my experience, that’s rarely the real issue. Most of the time the struggle isn’t information. It’s fear. Fear that you’re not legitimate enough, not experienced enough, not perfect enough, or that you’ll put yourself out there...

COACHING SKILLS ARE NOT ENOUGH - Many people believe that if they just become a better coach, clients will naturally find them. They focus on learning how to listen deeply, ask thoughtful questions, and guide people through meaningful conversations. Those skills matter. But coaching skill alone does not build a coaching business. In this episode we talk about the difference between the role of the...

GET CLARITY ON YOUR CALLING- So many people quietly wonder if the pull they feel toward guiding others is real or just a passing idea. In this episode, we separate ego from assignment, desire from stewardship, and hype from maturity. Calling is not about platform or personality. It is about alignment between your wiring, your lived experience, and the burden you carry for transformation. If you ha...

A TRANSITION TO FULL TIME- This live coaching session is for the coach who knows she is called, has been faithful for years, and still feels the tension of “why is it not happening faster?” Laschl has recently retired and wants five weekly clients. Together, you talk through the shift from side gig thinking to business owner thinking, why pricing reflects value (not time), how testimony builds fai...

BECOMING A COACH WHO LEADS THEIR TIME- One of the fastest ways to lose authority as a coach is to live from the phrase “I don’t have time.” In this episode, we talk about why self leadership always comes before client leadership and how time management is less about systems and more about personal agency. You will learn why shifting from “I don’t have time” to “I don’t make time” moves you out of...

GET STEADY BEFORE YOU MOVE- It’s easy for coaches to rush into planning, offering, and striving without first creating internal steadiness. In this episode, we talk about why anchoring matters before momentum. You’ll learn how presence, purpose, rhythm, and results work together to reduce reactivity, support clarity, and help you build something sustainable instead of chaotic. Key Takeaways: • Pre...

IDENTITY BEFORE STRATEGY- As we open a new year inside the Christian Life Coach Collective, this episode begins somewhere different. Not with pressure, performance, or planning, but with listening. Through prayer and guided reflection, you are invited to ask God who He says you are as a coach, why He shaped you the way He did, and who you are meant to serve. This episode walks you through identity...

PRESENCE OVER PERFORMANCE - Christmas can be tender, emotional, and unexpectedly quiet. This episode is a gentle invitation to release pressure, stop striving, and notice where God has already been with you this year. Instead of fixing or forcing anything, we reflect on presence, peace that looks simple or unfinished, and the reminder every woman needs to hear on the holidays: you are not behind....

GROUNDED IN THE MIDDLE OF CRAZY– Holidays often stir more emotion than peace. They carry a huge contrast of 'expectation meets reality'. People remember who’s missing, feel pressure to make things perfect, and reach the edge of their emotional capacity. In this episode, we’ll talk about what makes these “big emotion days” so intense and how to use a simple four-step tool to bring calm and clarity...

THE CLOSE CREATES THE MEMORY. Clients remember how a session ends more than how it begins. A clear, grounded close turns insight into action and reinforces safety and structure. Key Takeaways: Review the discovery before ending. Anchor emotion with breath or body awareness. Point forward with one clear next step. Action Guide: After your next session, take one minute to reflect: Did I ground, summ...

BREAKTHROUGH IS AWARENESS, NOT DRAMA. It’s often quiet—a sigh, a new sentence, or softened eyes. Notice it, name it, and nurture it. Let the client register it as transformation in progress and learn how to close the session feeling rooted and hopeful. Key Takeaways: Breakthroughs are internal before they’re visible. Naming them helps clients anchor new awareness. Celebrate progress, not perfectio...

PRESENCE IS MORE POWERFUL THAN PERFORMANCE. You don’t need perfect words; you need stability. Holding space means staying with tension long enough for truth to surface instead of rescuing or redirecting. Key Takeaways: Don’t relieve tension too early—let it reveal truth. Your steadiness becomes the client’s safety. Transformation unfolds when you stop forcing it. Action Guide: In your next session...

PEOPLE HEAL WHERE THEY FEEL SAFE. You can’t rush transformation; you can only make it safe to happen. Emotional safety isn’t soft—it’s strategic. Clients won’t explore what feels dangerous, but they will open up where peace is modeled. Key Takeaways: Safety begins with your tone, pace, and posture. A calm presence regulates the entire session. Validation is more powerful than advice. Action Guide:...

WHEN FACTS & INTERPRETATIONS SEPARATE-Most confusion comes from mixing what happened with what we think it means. Helping clients tell those apart creates immediate freedom and responsibility. Key Takeaways Facts are neutral; interpretations give them emotional weight. This distinction restores agency and reduces blame. Naming facts grounds emotion in truth. Action Guide Ask in your next sessi...

STUCKNESS ISN’T FAILURE— When clients loop, defend, or go quiet, they’re not resisting you—they’re protecting themselves. Your job isn’t to push; it’s to stay calm and create safety until their system can settle and see again. Key Takeaways Stuckness often signals pain, not rebellion. Silence and curiosity regulate the moment better than pressure. Presence builds trust that allows insight to emerg...

FIND THE BELIEF, NOT JUST THE STORY-Clients come in describing details, emotions, and people—but the real coaching moment happens when you hear the belief underneath it all. Transformation begins when you can separate circumstance from interpretation and help the client uncover what they’re making it mean. Key Takeaways The root issue is rarely the situation—it’s the paradigm behind it. Ask questi...

‘BUSINESS’ CAN FEEL INTIMIDATING- You feel called to offer your services, but the business aspect freaks you out. You wish you didn’t have to create everything from scratch. In this episode, I’m talking about why that feeling is normal, how to move from fear to focus, and what simple actions can help you build a business that supports your calling instead of stifling it. You can do this! Key Takea...

SAYING YES WITH GOD- Saying yes isn’t just about self-permission—it’s about alignment. In this episode, we’ll talk about how saying yes to yourself becomes a way of partnering with God’s will, reducing decision fatigue, and taking the next right step in faith. You’ll learn how to hear what He’s saying, how to recognize when you’re in alignment with Him, and why this matters for you personally and...

VALUE ISN’T A CURRICULUM- When it comes to coaching, a lot of us feel pressure to prove our worth by stacking on more — more hours, more worksheets, more bonuses. But the truth is, people don’t come to you asking for a 20-step plan or an entire curriculum. Coaching is nuanced and client-led. In this episode, I’ll show you how to think about value in a way that’s both simple and powerful, how to co...

YOUR CORE BELIEFS MATTER- If I asked you right now, “What are your core beliefs?”—could you answer? Most of us can’t, not because we don’t have them, but because we’ve never slowed down to write them out and name them out loud. In this episode, I’ll walk you through ten questions to help uncover your own core beliefs about your audience, transformation, faith, values, and legacy. I’ll share mine a...

THE PAYOFF AND PITFALLS OF BEING SOMEONE’S SOLUTION-There’s a real emotional payoff when you realize you’ve been part of someone’s solution. It feels good because God designed us for connection and contribution. But what happens when we start chasing that feeling instead of staying rooted in truth? In this episode, we’ll talk about the joy of being a solution, the hidden pitfalls like over-respons...
