    335: Are Webinars Dead? (Spoiler: It's Complicated) with Aandra Bohlen

    Webinars aren't dead. But the way most coaches are using them definitely is. In this episode, Kendra sits down with webinar strategist Aandra Bohlen to unpack what's actually working in 2026 when it comes to webinars, challenges, workshops, and live events. They discuss why traditional teaching-heavy webinars are losing effectiveness, how to create genuine "aha" moments that move people toward action, and why engagement matters far more than cramming in more information. They also dive into one of the biggest mistakes coaches make: assuming a webinar has failed if it doesn't generate immediate sales. Aandra shares her framework for creating micro-shifts, uncovering your unique methodology, and building enrollment experiences that feel natural instead of pushy. If you've been wondering whether webinars are still worth the effort, this conversation will give you a much more nuanced answer than a simple yes or no. In this episode:  Are Webinars Actually Dead or Are Coaches Using Them Wrong?Why Information Alone No Longer Converts BuyersThe Shift From Teaching to Creating TransformationHow to Build Webinar Experiences That Generate Sales CallsThe Simple Exercise to Discover What Your Webinar Should TeachFinding Your Unique Framework and Market DifferentiatorWhy Your First Webinar Probably Won't Make Sales (And That's Okay)Why Most Buyers Need Multiple Touchpoints Before They PurchaseThe Secret to Creating Webinars That Aren't Boring About Aandra: Aandra Bohlen, founder of Experiential Selling, where she helps business owners spot where they’re losing buyers and fix it so saying yes becomes the natural next step. What makes her work unique is that she looks at everything from the buyer’s seat. That’s how she can quickly see where people start to drift, get confused, or hesitate, and design a conversion experience that drives more consistent revenue.

    332: Stop Writing Boring Subject Lines (+ how to get your emails opened)

    If your emails aren’t getting opened, the problem might not be your content. It might be your subject lines. In this episode, Kendra breaks down why most coaches write subject lines that sound safe, predictable, and instantly ignorable… and how that’s quietly killing their email engagement. She explains the psychology behind curiosity-driven subject lines, why trying to sound “professional” often backfires, and how to write emails people actually want to click on. Kendra also shares practical examples of subject lines that work, the biggest mistakes coaches make with email marketing, and why your emails should feel more like a conversation than a corporate newsletter. If your open rates are low or your list feels dead, this episode will completely change the way you approach email marketing. In This Episode: The open rate benchmarks you should be hitting (hint: 30%+ for weekly emails, 50%+ for freebie delivery)Boring subject lines vs. compelling ones (and why yours are probably the first one)The 5 types of subject lines i rotate through every single week... curiosity, story tease, organic, personalized, and authority (with real examples of each)The subject line don'ts that are tanking your open rates right now (all caps, too many emojis, title case, vague filler)How to A/B split test your subject lines so you always get two chances at a good open rateThe resend-to-unopens trick that can take your 30% open rate to 40% with almost zero effortWhy preview text matters (and how to use it as a second subject line)The AI hack i use with Claude to find hidden patterns in my subject lines (this one alone is worth the listen)  Referenced episodes: Episode 325 — Email Deliverability (tech setup, DMARC, DNS records, domain verification)Ep. 225: Email Nurture Sequences: Get My Template!Tools & platforms mentioned: FG FunnelsClaude (for subject line analysis)ChatGPT (for subject line analysis)The Weather Network app (for studying clickbait article titles)  Enroll in Health Coach Accelerator: Apply for HCA: https://kendraperry.net/apply    Leave the podcast a 5-star review: https://ratethispodcast.com/wealthy

    331: How to Launch a Group Program, Grow Your Email List, and Finally Get Out of Your Own Way (HCA Coaching Call)

    A lot of coaches hit a point where one-on-one work starts to feel maxed out. The client results are there, the demand is growing, but suddenly the business feels heavy. Too many DMs, too many protocols, too many moving pieces. In this episode, Kendra breaks down what it actually looks like to transition from one-on-one coaching into a scalable group program without sacrificing client experience or burning yourself out in the process. She dives into the difference between cohort-style launches versus ongoing enrollment models, why community matters so much in women’s health programs, and the systems you need in place before scaling. Kendra also explains why most coaches are trying to grow too early without a real marketing foundation and how building an email list, running webinars, and leveraging paid ads can dramatically simplify client acquisition. This conversation is also a reminder that scaling isn’t just about strategy. It’s about mindset, boundaries, delegation, and learning how to build a business that actually supports your life instead of consuming it. In this coaching call with Marnee, Kendra discusses:  The real reason health coaches plateau even when their offer is working and their close rate is solidThe three things Kendra has seen separate coaches who make it from the ones who don'tWhy persistence beats strategy every single time and what that actually looks like in practiceWhat to do when self doubt, rejection, and a bad week on social media make you want to quitThe mindset shift that turns a struggling health coaching business into a sustainable one Marnee Dejong's Bio: Marnee DeJong is a certified health coach and former drug and alcohol counselor with a passion for helping women over 40 navigate the hormone chaos of perimenopause. Drawing on nearly a decade of one-on-one counseling experience, Marnee brings a deeply personal and supportive approach to her coaching, helping women in this season of life reclaim their energy, boost their metabolism, and feel like themselves again. She is the creator of a signature four-month hormone and perimenopause program designed to guide women through real, lasting change with the kind of high-touch support that actually moves the needle.
