I’m very excited you’re joining me for another installment in our Back-to-Basics series where we’re going all the way back to the spring of 2020 when I kicked the podcast off with a Getting Started series.

Those early episodes were all about helping you build a strong foundation on which to grow your coaching practice and we’ve been revisiting some of the key ones.

Today, we’re looking at what you can do to find your ideal coaching client. I not only share an excerpt form the original episode on this topic, but I also dive into what I might have shared or done differently if I recorded this episode in 2023.

When I hear “sales funnel,” there’s sometimes a reflexive internal cringe. We've all seen examples of funnels that are more focused on making money than genuinely serving the client. I’ve also been on the purchasing side of that, and it's not a pleasant feeling.

Today’s guest, Innovative Sales Message and Funnel Energetics Coach Danielle Klemm, is different. She's about helping you create ethical and intentional funnels that prioritize clients' needs. Danielle has over five years of experience in online marketing, helping entrepreneurs scale their one-to-many or group offer sustainably and gross manipulation tactic-free. She’s on a mission to make ease, freedom, and play not just the goal but felt throughout the process.

In our conversation, Danielle shared fantastic insights into how you can create a funnel that truly supports your potential clients as they engage with you and your business. In a world where so many online businesses are vying for our attention, being client-centered helps you stand out from the crowd and nurture relationships that last for the long term. Danielle has so much wisdom to share, and I know you’ll love this episode.

No matter where you are in your coaching business, it’s never too soon to think about hiring.

As we build our coaching practices, we must align our people plan with our business plan. With so many celebrity entrepreneurs sharing what they do on social media, it’s easy to feel like their way is right. The truth is that there are many “right” ways to approach hiring, and it’s up to you to check with yourself and make sure you’re choosing the path that’s right for you and your business.

Today I’m excited to share this conversation with my friend and colleague Ashley Cox of SproutHR to discuss what you need to know about hiring for your coaching practice. I’ve known Ashley for almost seven years, and we’ve grown up together as business owners.

Ashley Cox is a certified human resource professional with over 16 years of experience. She founded SproutHR to make HR accessible for visionary small business owners, and she’s all about helping women-owned businesses hire and lead in a way that boosts their profit, sustainability, and success. Ashley wrote her first book, Transform Your Stories, to guide women to overcome the stories that hold us back so we can become confident and courageous leaders who create a resounding impact in the world.

In this interview, Ashley and I discuss some things that both early-stage and seasoned business owners should consider so that they are ready to hire at the right time. She shares excellent insights on best practices and tips you can use right now. Let’s jump in!

The online entrepreneurship space puts a lot of emphasis on the hustle. We’re told that achieving your desired success means putting your head down and grinding - productivity is the measure of value.

Hustle culture is not something that resonates with me, and today I’m thrilled to introduce you to Leonie Dawson, who is proof that it’s not the only route to success. Leonie is an extraordinary online entrepreneur whose approach to business is unlike anything I've seen before. She built an empire that prioritizes creativity and generosity while rejecting productivity for productivity's sake.

Leonie Dawson is an internationally best-selling author of the 2023 My Brilliant Year workbooks, which have been used by over 500,000 people worldwide. A multi-passionate entrepreneur, Leonie has generated over $13 million in revenue while only working 10 hours a week. Leonie has been recognized for her business acumen by winning Ausmumpreneur’s People’s Choice Business Coach, Global Brand & Businesses Making A Difference Awards.

In this conversation, Leonie shares how she’s created a thriving business while working only 10 hours a week, how they avoid the hustle culture trap, what it looks like to build a business without having to rely on social media, bringing your whole self into your business, getting clarity around the time you spend working, and more. Let's get right to it!

Coach with Clarity - 96: What I'm Saying Yes to In My Business This Year
play

01/17/22 • 30 min

When we know our priorities we can take action and make decisions in our business that are fully aligned with our priorities and our values.

That’s why getting clear on what you're saying yes and saying no to is an essential step in any business planning process. Once you know your non-negotiables, it becomes much easier to filter through all the possibilities and shiny objects and focus on the most important elements.

In my annual planning process, when I mapped out my Hell Yes list I grouped the things that fit together and from there I came up with four key areas of my business that I’m saying yes to for 2022 and maybe even beyond. That’s what I’m sharing with you today.

If you haven't already taken the time to chart out your Hell Yes and Hell No lists for the year, I encourage you to do that as soon as you can. I hope today’s episode will give you a bit of inspiration as you set your intentions for the future.

Exploring the intersection of spirituality and business has always been an interest of mine and today I have a very special interview to share with you.

I’m joined by Manasi Kakade, a Practical Spirituality Mentor, and Speaker for Bridgewalker visionaries. She describes Bridgewalkers as analytical, critical thinkers fascinated by spirituality. Manasi teaches Bridgewalker coaches, healers, artists, and authors how to master their 7 Chakra through practical business actions and create an unshakable internal foundation that leaders need to deliver their visionary message and mission through their business.

In this thought-provoking conversation, we dive into what it looks like to connect spirituality and business and Manasi drops one truth bomb after the other. It literally took my breath away and I will be listening to this conversation again because there are so many gems in what she shared with us.

Do I really want to coach? Do I still want to do this business thing? What does it mean if I make a shift?

Many coaches hit a point in their businesses where they feel an identity crisis. To get through this and figure out what you want, we need safe spaces to openly explore our options. Places where we can explore the logical next steps as well as our desires and visions.

Today I’m joined by Mary Williams, the founder, and CEO of Sensible Woo, where she teaches highly sensitive and neuro-divergent online business owners how to replace chaos in their backend business operations with harmonious processes and systems. I've known Mary for years, and she’s someone that I have loved collaborating with and getting to know. Her ability to blend the strategic with the intuitive is very much in line with how I coach and her approach to systems.

In this conversation, Mary and I discuss the energy shift in the online entrepreneurial space, Mary’s approach to creating a solid foundation for a business, the importance of enjoying the process, how systems can help you to reclaim your time, why we need to normalize the spiritual aspects of business, and more. Mary is an expert in creating strong systems in your business to support your operations, revenue generation, and, most importantly, life. Enjoy the conversation!
