You see it over and over, like a train wreck in slow motion.

Someone gets their coaching certification. They’re full of energy, rearing to go. And they burst out of the gates, ready to make their mark and cause a splash with their new found credentials.

And if you’re thinking about making the leap from your job to becoming a coach, this is something you absolutely must know about it. Especially if you’re thinking life coaching in particular, because not all things are as they seem.

The truth is, it’s a hellishly hard business to start.. Fortunately, I’ll show you how to avoid all of that with the Cheesemelt Strategy, which is directly responsible for saving Listerine from the brink … Read more >

For a little while, I used to call myself a professional blogger.

Then, one day, it occurred to me that I don’t actually make any money blogging. It doesn’t make people pay me. It doesn’t make people hire me. And it most certainly doesn’t make people buy my products. In fact, you can’t even see my products on my blog, though I have a bunch.

So given all that, it seemed a little silly to call myself a blogger. Plus, most people still don’t know what the hell a blogger does. It sounds like the type of job you get, when you haven’t found a real job, yet.

In reality, there’s really only one thing my blog does. It just … Read more >

You’ll literally want to use it in every single piece of content you create.

Picture this.

You plant yourself down in front of your keyboard. Like a maestro in front of an orchestra, you slowly raise your hands into the air. You pause. … Read more >

When I first heard about the Lift conference from Danny Iny at Mirasee, I was about as excited as getting a root canal. Maybe a little less.

It’s not that I didn’t want to learn more about how to build a coaching business.

But I already knew a good bit, and there are so many of these things going around.

Not to mention they’re all essentially the same. You get there, they pump you up, the crowd cheers, everyone shares their story, while the mic gets passed around, and you roll your eyes deeply into your head, because you know what’s going on.

It’s just another chance to pitch you.

Buy, buy, buy.

Then, you go home, and you’re puffed … Read more >

What would you do if you were building a business from nothing and you only had 30 days to create a new job for yourself? Could you make enough money with your blog to survive?

That’s exactly what I discussed when I got together with Bailey Richert, who faced something similar. After quitting an unfulfilling job as an engineer at 25, she had to find a way to make her blog work, and in this talk, she explains how it all came down to one key strategy. A strategy you can do, yourself. A strategy that would lead to over 7,500 subscribers. Read on, to see how…
