It’s essential to connect with new leads consistently if you want to grow your online business, but sometimes it can feel like your lead pool is pretty low… or completely nonexistent.

If you’re an online service provider, influencer or someone simply looking for help with content creation, you’re in the right place. You already know you need to consistently put out highly valuable, impactful content to grow your brand, but that’s often easier said than done.

No matter what you call them – sales calls, discovery calls, clarity calls, etc. – these opportunities to connect with potential clients one-on-one are incredibly valuable and important. Not only are you ensuring they’re a good fit for your coaching program and that the two of you would work well together, but you’re also showing them what makes your offer worth investing in – and ideally, these c...

When someone says they don’t want to sound “sales-y,” what they’re *really* saying is they want to sell in a way that adds value to others and isn’t off-putting, annoying or uncomfortable. Good news: That is 100% possible, and it’s much easier (not to mention more fun!) than you think it is. Today I’m sharing how to get your mindset right when it comes to sales as well as how to sell online withou...

If the fear of other people “hating” on you holds you back from posting on social media and growing your online presence as a current or aspiring coach or influencer, this episode is for you. It’s important to note that when I say “haters,” I’m not talking about people offering genuine constructive criticism – that’s different. Instead, I’m talking about the people who are determined to pick you a...

If you’re a coach who is trying to sell your programs or services strictly via direct messages on social media or through email, I have bad news: You’re leaving a LOT of sales on the table. That’s because when it comes to closing deals, sales calls are a MUST – especially if you’re trying to sell high-ticket offers. Today I’m explaining why sales calls are so effective and giving you tips and tric...

Hey, you ​​– the woman who dreams of becoming an online coach. The woman who envisions creating a successful business that enables her to live a flourishing, fulfilled life that only exists in her imagination. The woman who’s gotten used to playing small. Today’s episode is just for you. If you’re anything like I used to be, you’ve probably been conditioned to “play it safe.” You may think you’re...

During our conversation, you’ll hear about Dr. Bennett’s philosophy and how she treats her patients, and I’ll share what my experience has been like working with her. This episode is for you if yo...

Even if you’re the best coach in the world, you’re going to end up with unmotivated clients at some point. Maybe you’re telling them all the right things, you’re encouraging and supporting them, you’re doing all you can to help them reach their goal… but for whatever reason, they’re just not taking action. As a coach, you obviously cannot force anyone to do the work or to follow through on the pla...

If the idea of selling completely freaks you out, you’re not alone – in fact, I used to absolutely HATE selling. However, if you want to grow your business and become more profitable, you have to get more comfortable with sales… and become good at making them! Today I’m sharing how I overcame my own fear of selling and developed a skill set that’s made sales a lot of fun for me. The same can be tr...

You’ve probably heard the term “mindset” before, and maybe you’re already rolling your eyes because it sounds kinda woo-woo… but have you ever considered the ways in which your thoughts DIRECTLY impact your potential for success? Yep – it’s true. Your mindset determines what you believe is possible, and as a result, it also dictates how you work toward your goals… or if you quit before you’ve even...

Do you feel like you NEVER have enough time to accomplish everything you set out to in a day, week or month? Does your to-do list seem never-ending and completely out of control? Have you decided you’re just doomed to feel in over your head all the time? Listen, I’m not saying you don’t have a busy schedule… but chances are you could be at least a *little* more efficient with your time, and that’s...

If you’ve ever felt like a fraud or been worried that someone’s going to call you out for not knowing enough, not having enough experience under your belt or not being adequately prepared no matter how much you’ve done (seriously, who HASN’T felt this way in a work situation?!), chances are you’ve experienced imposter syndrome. It’s an uncomfortable feeling that can be detrimental to our success a...

If you’re someone who’s looking to get more followers, increase audience engagement and/or boost your impact on Instagram, this episode is for YOU! I’m diving into Instagram Reels (you know – the new-ish video feature Instagram has launched in an attempt to take down TikTok) and sharing my thoughts on why you NEED to be making them as well as how you can leverage Reels to your advantage. Spoiler a...

Today I’m interviewing one of my former private business coaching clients, Kristina Pinchera (@kpinchfit: https://www.instagram.com/kpinchfit/ ) who has an incredible story that you’ll DEFINITELY want to hear! I began working with Kristina in August of 2020, which is when she was beginning to take her fitness coaching business online, and to say she’s done well over the past year would be a MASSIV...

One of the most common questions I get asked as a business coach (who, until very recently, also ran an online fitness coaching business!) is how to get started, and that’s exactly what I’m discussing today. Contrary to popular belief, getting your business up and running CAN be easy – and I’m here to help simplify and demystify the process. You don’t need a website, a fancy logo or professional p...

This one was a bit hard for me to record ​​– even though I’ve already made this announcement on Instagram, and most of you probably already know! But in case you weren’t aware: I am retiring from fitness coaching to focus on business coaching full-time… and I’m SO excited. Curious about why/how I made my decision? This episode is for YOU! I’m explaining what led to this change, why I’m feeling so...

Unpopular opinion: You may not ALWAYS need to immediately honor your hunger cues… especially if you’re on a weight loss journey. Feeling hunger is not necessarily a bad or negative thing, and in fact, it’s common and normal when you’re in a calorie deficit, which you must be in to lose weight. However, you definitely do NOT have to suffer and struggle with extreme hunger pangs to get results, and...

Hot take: There’s absolutely nothing wrong with bubble baths and face masks, but those things aren’t what I consider TRUE self-care… and that’s what I’m talking about today. What IS true self-care? It’s putting into practice the things that will help you live a genuinely fulfilling life (because isn’t that what we all want?). In reality, taking care of yourself often looks like making intentional...
