    259. Inside a Multiple Six-Figure Coaching Business (Ft. Karen Millon)

    What does it actually look like to build a multiple six-figure coaching business? In this episode, I sit down with Thriving Coach Academy graduate Karen Millon, a coach who now regularly creates five-figure months in her business. Karen’s path into coaching began during a major transition in her own life: a divorce. Her experience with coaching during that time opened her eyes to how powerful the work could be, and she eventually began coaching others herself. For nearly three years, she was coaching without formal training. Eventually, she enrolled in Thriving Coach Academy to become a stronger coach and learn how to actually scale what she was doing. In our conversation, she shares the evolution of her business, the lessons she learned along the way, and what aspiring coaches should know about developing both the coaching skills and business skills required to create a profitable coaching career.

    258. What the World’s Best Coaches Have in Common

    What separates a good coach from a truly exceptional one? In this episode, we break down the qualities and mindsets that some of the most successful coaches have in common—and they go far beyond simply being a good listener, asking powerful questions, or being empathetic. Whether you’re already building your coaching practice or you’re considering becoming a coach, you’ll discover some of the less obvious traits that can make a major difference in your ability to attract clients, create meaningful results, and build a thriving business. We’ll explore what helps top coaches stand out, why certain qualities are often overlooked by newer coaches, and how you can begin developing them in your own coaching practice. If you want to become a more confident, impactful, and successful coach, this episode will give you plenty to reflect on—and practical ways to raise the standard of how you coach and how you show up in your business.

    257. How Successful People Handle Defeat

    There’s a side of pursuing big goals that almost nobody talks about enough: the moments where you feel defeated. Not just disappointed for a few minutes — but deeply discouraged. The moments where you question yourself, lose momentum, compare yourself to everyone else, and secretly wonder if maybe this just isn’t going to work out for you after all. In this episode, we’re talking about why feeling defeated is not only normal when building a coaching business… it’s unavoidable. Just like in sports, nobody wins every game. There will be losses, rejection, slow seasons, failed launches, unanswered messages, low engagement, self-doubt, and moments where you feel emotionally exhausted from trying so hard. The problem is not that these moments happen. The problem is that most people don’t know how to psychologically recover from them. You’ll learn the mindset shifts, emotional tools, and “athlete mentality” that help people stay in the game long enough to eventually succeed. Because the people who build extraordinary lives are usually not the people who never lost — they’re the people who learned how to lose without abandoning themselves.

    256. The Courage to Be Misunderstood

    There comes a point in life where you realize that trying to be fully understood by everyone is exhausting. So many people are silently shaping their lives around avoiding judgment, avoiding confusion, avoiding disappointing people, and avoiding being seen differently. They stay quiet about the business they want to start. They suppress parts of themselves. They over-explain every decision. They remain loyal to old identities long after they’ve outgrown them — all because they fear what other people might think. But growth naturally creates misunderstanding. The moment you evolve, change careers, set boundaries, become more visible, pursue something unconventional, or stop living according to other people’s expectations, some people will no longer know how to categorize you. And many people mistake that discomfort as evidence they’re doing something wrong. In reality, being misunderstood is often a sign that you are becoming someone new. This episode explores the psychology behind why people fear being misunderstood so deeply, the exhausting habit of over-explaining yourself, why people from your past often struggle with your growth, and how to stop treating other people’s opinions like authority. If you’ve ever felt afraid to fully express yourself, post online, pivot careers, speak your truth, or disappoint people by becoming who you really are — this episode will help you stop organizing your life around perception and start trusting your own voice again.

    255. The Curse of Self-Awareness

    Some of the most thoughtful, emotionally intelligent, self-aware people are also some of the most stuck. Why? Because at a certain point, self-awareness can stop being a strength and start becoming a prison. Instead of helping you grow, it causes you to overthink, overanalyze, second-guess yourself, and hesitate. You become so aware of how you’re perceived, what could go wrong, and how things might be interpreted that you slowly stop fully participating in your life. In this episode, we explore the dark side of self-awareness and why some people who are deeply reflective end up underacting while less self-aware people move faster, take bigger risks, and create more momentum. We’ll talk about the difference between self-awareness and self-consciousness, how overthinking disguises itself as intelligence, and the subtle ways hyper-awareness can sabotage confidence, visibility, dating, business, creativity, and success. If you’ve ever felt mentally exhausted from constantly analyzing yourself, waiting to feel “ready,” or struggling to stop monitoring how you come across, this episode will challenge you in a powerful way. Because the goal is not to become less aware — it’s to stop letting awareness turn into inhibition. To start a successful coaching business, visit ⁠www.thrivingcoachacademy.com⁠.

    254. Why Some People Keep Winning

    Why do some people seem to keep winning, no matter what challenges come their way? More often than not, it's because they've developed what can only be described as an unstoppable mindset. While success may look effortless from the outside, it is often the result of confidence, resilience, and an unwavering belief in what is possible. In this episode, we explore the qualities and habits that allow certain individuals to consistently overcome obstacles, seize opportunities, and create extraordinary results. More importantly, you'll discover how to cultivate that same unstoppable energy in your own life. The people who keep winning are not necessarily the most talented, fortunate, or connected. They are the ones who continue moving forward when others give up. They embrace challenges, learn from setbacks, and maintain the determination to pursue their goals despite uncertainty. Over time, this relentless commitment creates momentum, confidence, and the feeling of being truly unstoppable. As life coaches, we have the privilege and responsibility of helping others develop this winning mindset. By sharing our experiences, providing guidance and support, and creating a community of individuals who believe in their own potential, we can empower others to achieve meaningful success and fulfillment. The need for coaches who can inspire, challenge, and guide individuals toward their next level has never been greater. By embracing this role, we have the opportunity to make a lasting impact on the lives of those we serve. To become a Certified Professional Coach, visit www.thrivingcoachacademy.com

    253. Why Some Coaches Earn 10x More Than Others

    Most coaches assume that if they want to make more money, they need more clients. More sessions. More hours. More hustle. But what if the real answer isn't working harder... it's building a different type of coaching business altogether? In this episode, we're exploring the difference between a high-volume coaching business and a high-value coaching business. You'll learn why so many coaches default to cheap pricing, the hidden costs of serving too many clients, and how a premium coaching model can often create better client results, more freedom, and a more sustainable business. We'll also tackle common myths about premium coaching, including the belief that charging more is greedy or that nobody is willing to invest at higher price points. If you're building a coaching business—or thinking about starting one—this episode may completely change the way you think about pricing, client volume, and what it truly means to create value. Because the goal isn't simply to make more money. It's to build a coaching business that allows you to make a meaningful impact while creating a life you genuinely love.

    252. Bad Coaching Advice That Sounds Good

    Not all coaching advice is created equal. In fact, some of the most popular ideas in the coaching and personal development world sound incredibly supportive on the surface, but may actually be keeping clients stuck. In this episode, Frank takes a closer look at several coaching approaches that are widely accepted, often well-intentioned, and commonly taught, yet can unintentionally reinforce fear, avoidance, emotional dependency, and stagnation rather than growth and transformation. As coaches, it's important to examine not only what we're helping clients achieve, but how we're helping them get there. Are we encouraging expansion or protection? Resilience or avoidance? Growth or comfort? Frank challenges listeners to think more critically about the questions they ask, the assumptions they make, and the messages they reinforce in their coaching conversations. Whether you're a new coach or have been coaching for years, this episode will encourage you to rethink some common coaching narratives and consider a different approach—one that helps clients build courage, self-trust, and the capacity to move forward even when growth feels uncomfortable. Sometimes the advice that sounds the kindest isn't the advice that creates the greatest transformation. To start a successful coaching business, visit ⁠www.thrivingcoachacademy.com⁠.
