    079 Working To A New Rhythm In My Coaching Business This Year

    At 60, my body sent me a very clear message — it was time to work to a different rhythm. In this episode, I share what unfolded after a trip to Australia, a series of unexpected events, and a health scare that stopped me in my tracks. Rather than seeing it as something going "wrong," I explore how my body was guiding me toward deeper alignment — in life, business, and money. We talk about listening to the wisdom of the body in midlife, letting clarity arrive instead of forcing it, and creating a business that supports health, ease, and abundance. This is an invitation to honour the season you're in and design your life and work to truly fit who you are now. More than anything, this episode is an invitation: To trust your body. To honour the season of life you're in. And to allow yourself to work, earn, and live in a way that feels nourishing — not depleting. If you'd like to explore working together — whether that's one-to-one, inside Simplify & Flourish, or through a single deep-dive session — all the links are in the show notes. I'd love to connect.

    078 Making Money in Menopause with Simplicity

    In this episode, I'm sharing something that feels deeply personal and important — how to make money in midlife and menopause with simplicity. I start by talking about my background and why I'm so passionate about helping women thrive financially. I grew up watching my mum work incredibly hard in the family business without being properly compensated, and that experience shaped my belief that women must be empowered around money — especially in midlife. For a long time, I was completely addicted to my business. I worked around my kids' schedules, constantly chasing success and squeezing life in around the edges. These days, I'm in a very different season — one of simplicity, spaciousness, and freedom. My business now supports my life, not the other way around, and I want that for you too. I also talk about the gender pay gap — women in Ireland still earn around 10% less than men — and why it's so important that we prioritise our own financial security. We live longer, often take time out for caregiving, and deserve to have pensions, savings, and income that support the rich, fulfilling lives we're creating. From there, I explore how you can redefine your business model to match your current season of life. It's not about copying what others are doing or overcomplicating things — it's about finding a simple, sustainable way of doing business that truly fits who you are now. I share how I've evolved my own business to create more spaciousness and abundance, and how embracing flexibility has opened up so many unexpected opportunities. When we stop clinging to what used to work and start trusting the flow of what's next, everything becomes lighter and more aligned. I wrap up by inviting you to take a look at your own business and life seasons — and if you'd like support exploring how to simplify and align things, I'd love to have that conversation with you.

    077 The Best Offers to Sell This Year

    In this episode, I dive into a hot topic that's been coming up a lot lately – what are the best offers to sell this year? A new client asked me recently, "Are people still buying coaching?" And the answer is a big, resounding YES. Yes, people are still buying coaching – because people have problems, and coaching offers real, meaningful solutions. We've definitely seen some shifts in the online coaching space – especially following the boom during the pandemic – and it's true that some businesses with shaky foundations have collapsed. But that doesn't mean coaching isn't working anymore. In fact, I believe there's never been a better time to be a coach, mentor, or consultant. In this conversation, I talk about: Why the coaching industry is still thriving – despite the noise. How to simplify your offers to make them more sustainable and profitable. What's really working when it comes to attracting clients and making sales. The importance of connection in a fast-changing world (hello, AI revolution!). The best business models for this year – whether you love one-to-one, group work, or a hybrid of both. How to assess your current offers to find your sweet spot (and what to ditch). Why simpler offers that get your clients great results will always win. What to do if you're feeling like the market is "saturated" (hint: it's not!). I also share some behind-the-scenes stories about my clients' wins – like one who just delivered her first masterclass and had nearly every attendee book a call with her. It's these simple systems that work. We also talk about trust in the industry, delivering on your promises, and why people are becoming more discerning in how they spend their money. It's all about delivering true value, in a way that feels good to you and gets results for your clients. ✨ If you want to find the best offer for you – the one that feels aligned, easy to deliver, and brings in consistent income – this episode is for you.     Let's chat: If you'd like a 20-minute chat about where you're at in your business and how to move forward with more ease, I'd love to speak with you. 👉 Click here to book your free call Feel free to drop me a message on Instagram too – I'm @the_sarah_leather and always up for a good chat in the DMs!

    076 3 Simple Steps to a Successful Business

    Hi, I'm Sarah Leather, and in today's episode, I'm excited to share the three key ingredients you need to create a simple and highly abundant business. Before diving into these, it's essential to first examine your business model. Make sure it aligns with how you want to live and work right now—not how you did five or ten years ago.   Key Takeaways: A Clear and Aligned Offer: Your offer should match how you want to deliver your services. I've found success with a single core offer, which I scaled from one-on-one sessions to a three-month program, and later, group programs and masterminds. This approach not only doubled my income but also gave me more space and energy for my clients. Simple Marketing and Messaging: Focus on one lead platform for your marketing efforts and a secondary platform outside social media, such as a blog, podcast, or YouTube channel. Clear messaging is vital—speak directly to your dream client's micro-problems, and use relatable, tangible examples that resonate with them. A Simple System to Sell: Having a step-by-step process for making offers is crucial. Whether it's through social media, email lists, or masterclasses, ensure you're inviting your audience to take the next steps with you regularly. Remember, selling is serving, and it helps more people when done authentically and wholeheartedly.   If you'd like help implementing these steps or refining your approach, feel free to book a 15-minute chat with me. I'd love to hear where you're at and how I can support you in achieving your business goals.   Links & Resources: Book a 15-minute chat with Sarah Follow me on Instagram: @the_sarah_leather   Thanks for listening! I'll be back soon with more insights. Lots of love, Sarah x

    075 Marketing Trends - What's Working & What's Not for 2025

    Current trends in online business coaching @ 0:01 Sarah explores the latest developments in the online coaching industry, highlighting the challenges faced by larger coaching businesses. She explains how smaller, personalised one-on-one and small group coaching setups have proven more resilient, thanks to stronger foundations and a client-centred approach.   Importance of resilience and adaptability @ 1:29 Building inner resilience and adaptability is key to navigating business challenges. Sarah shares actionable insights on how to pivot your business model, diversify income streams, and bounce back from setbacks without losing momentum.   Shift towards lower-priced offers @ 11:05 Sarah discusses the rising popularity of affordable "micro" offers and courses, which serve as an accessible entry point for new clients. She explains how these smaller offerings can build trust and lead to more substantial investments in the long term.   Importance of trust and transparency @ 19:02 The coaching industry has seen a decline in trust due to unmet expectations with high-ticket offers. Sarah stresses the importance of transparency, honesty, and consistently delivering value to rebuild client confidence.   Evolving marketing and sales tactics @ 22:16 There's a noticeable shift away from aggressive "bro marketing" methods. Sarah highlights the growing preference for relationship-focused marketing strategies and more personalised, accessible coaching experiences.   Advice for business owners @ 30:17 In her closing remarks, Sarah encourages business owners to prioritise mindset shifts, stay true to their unique identity, and seek the right support. She also shares the importance of maintaining strong client retention strategies and continually improving, regardless of external market trends.   To create your micro-offer, see Simple Micro Method here: https://bit.ly/SimpleMicroMethod   To see the ways you can work with me this year, go here: https://thesarahleather.com/work-with-me/

    074 Selling Online Courses with Caitlin Bacher

    I'm thrilled to have my special guest Caitlin Bacher in this episode.      Caitlin specialises in growing an online course business without launching. If you're done with the stressful launch rollercoaster you are going to love this. This topic is so close to my heart as many of my clients have hired me to help them sell their offers after burnout from repeated launching.      As the CEO of Scale with Success®, Caitlin Bacher is dedicated to teaching coaches and course creators how to transform their online course into a 7-figure business - without launching. Caitlin believes there's more than one right way to build a business, and that if launching isn't your cup of tea, you don't have to do it.      She learned this lesson the hard way; for her, launches meant inconsistent revenue, sleepless nights, and stress. After Caitlin pivoted from launching to selling, she unlocked consistent revenue, scaled, and made her first million in only nine months. She now teaches this method to course creators all over the world.      Connect with Caitlin: https://www.facebook.com/caitlinbacher/

    073 This One Thing Is Everything in Your Business

    In this episode, I dive into the power of defining your "one simple thing" and how it can transform the way you approach your business. Here's what you can expect:   Defining Your "One Simple Thing" @ 0:42 I break down why it's so important to have clarity on your "one simple thing"—the core of what you do, who you help, and the problem you solve. This clarity sets the foundation for your marketing, messaging, sales, and all your offerings.   Simplicity and Abundance @ 1:32 Here, I talk about the relationship between simplicity and abundance in business. When we overcomplicate things, it makes our work harder. But when we stay focused on our "one simple thing," everything flows more easily.   Overcoming Obstacles to Clarity @ 3:08 I address one of the biggest challenges I see for women in business—not visibility or imposter syndrome, but a lack of clarity on their "one simple thing." Once you have this, taking action becomes so much easier.   Putting It into Practice @ 3:46 I share a personal story of how knowing my "one simple thing" helped me get through my marketing and sales activities quickly, even on a day I was feeling stuck.   Offering to Help Define Your "One Simple Thing" @ 6:52 If you're struggling to define your "one simple thing," I'm here to help. This is a core part of the work I do with my high-paying clients, and I know how crucial it is for success in any business.For anyone ready to bring more simplicity, clarity, and focus into their work, tune in to this episode to start defining your "one simple thing."
