    ep. 130 The Offer Audit: How to Choose Your Offer and Finally Create Consistent Sales

    If you feel like your offer isn’t selling, and your first instinct is to change it, tweak it, or create something new, this episode is for you!  In this episode, I’m breaking down how to know if your current offer actually makes sense for the season you’re in and will sell- so you can stop offer hopping, stop re-deciding, and start creating real momentum in your business. So many coaches assume inconsistent sales mean they haven’t found the “right” offer yet. But more often than not, the real issue isn’t the offer- it’s a lack of commitment, clarity, and leadership long enough for anything to work. Inside this episode, I’ll walk you through my Offer Audit, the exact process I use with my clients to simplify their offers, build confidence around what they’re selling, and see big results without burning everything down every few months. In this episode, you’ll learn: How to tell the difference between a bad offer and an offer that’s simply too earlyWhy constantly pivoting keeps you stuck in decision mode instead of leadership modeHow to choose one offer to lead in this season of your life and businessThe three steps to committing to an offer without panicking when results aren’t instant If you’re tired of feeling scattered, second-guessing your offers, or wondering if you should be doing something else instead, this episode will help you slow down, zoom out, and make grounded decisions you can stand behind confidently.

    ep. 129 Busy but Not Booking Clients? The Business Priorities That Create Traction for Coaches

    If you’re an online coach who’s doing “all the things” but still not booking consistent clients, this episode is your wake-up call, a breath of fresh air, and a weight lifted off your shoulders. In this episode, I’m breaking down why hardworking coaches feel exhausted, second-guess everything, and still don’t see traction; it’s not because you don’t know what to do or that you’re not doing enough.  It’s because you’re not sure what deserves your focus, when you have limited time and when everything feels urgent and important. I’m breaking down exactly what deserves your focus and exactly what will actually move the needle forward in your online coaching business to create sales, impact, and clients. In this episode, you’ll learn: Why “being busy” is not the same as building momentum in your coaching businessThe common belief that keeps coaches stuck in open loops, overthinking, and constant re-decidingHow spreading your focus thin creates exhaustion, frustration, and stalled incomeThe difference between optional tasks and essential, revenue-generating actionsThe Focus Protection Framework I use (and teach clients) to create traction fastWhy commitment- not more tweaking- creates clarity, confidence, and consistent sales And this episode is for you if you’re: An online coach feeling busy, overwhelmed, and stuckCreating content but not consistently signing clientsConstantly rethinking your offer, your messaging, or your next stepReady to stop spinning and focus on what actually creates momentum, clients, and revenue Resources & Links: ➡️ Book your free Growth Gap Audit Call ➡️ Apply for coaching ➡️ Connect on Instagram ❤️ Leave a review and share with your biz bestie if this episode resonated!

    If your income feels stuck, even though you’re showing up, posting consistently, and “doing all the things”- this episode is for you. In this week’s episode, I’m breaking down why most online coaches hit income plateaus not because they need a new niche, offer, or content strategy- but because they’re missing clarity in the places that actually create momentum and move the needle in their online coaching business. You’ll learn the three priorities that help you stop spinning, simplify your focus, and start signing more aligned, dream clients- without working harder or doing more. In this episode, we cover: Why adding more content, offers, or ideas often stalls momentum instead of creating itThe hidden belief keeping smart, capable coaches stuck in reaction modeWhy clarity- not effort- is the real missing piece in most plateaued businessesThe three business priorities that allow momentum to compound over timeHow to simplify your strategy without dumbing down your workWhat it really takes to move from “busy but stuck” to confident, consistent growth If you’re an online coach who feels stuck at the same income level despite posting consistently, trying different offers, and doing “all the right things,” this episode is for you.

    ep. 127 Perfectionism, Self-Trust, and Building a Values-Driven Life & Business with Sarah Singer

    If you’re a high-achieving, people-pleasing, perfectionist woman building a business- or a life- you love, this episode is a must-listen. In this powerful interview, I sit down with Sarah Singer, a career, business, & life design coach, to unpack how perfectionism quietly sneaks into your decisions, your momentum, and your confidence as you grow. Together, we explore what perfectionism actually looks like in real life and business (beyond the buzzwords), how it subtly slows your growth, and why trying to “get it right” often keeps you stuck longer than necessary. This conversation goes deep into the mindset shifts required to move forward with clarity, trust yourself again, and make aligned decisions based on who you are now- not who you were when you first started your journey. You’ll also hear a grounded, honest discussion about building a values-driven life and business, where your strategy supports your season of life instead of competing with it. Sarah shares practical examples of how cultivating deep self-trust becomes the catalyst for sustainable growth- without hustling, grinding, or forcing yourself into someone else’s version of success. This episode is especially powerful if you’re heading into a new chapter, feeling the pull to evolve, or realizing that old rules and expectations no longer fit the woman you’re becoming. In this episode, we cover: How perfectionism shows up in subtle (and sneaky) ways in life and businessWhy perfectionism slows momentum and keeps high achievers stuckReal-life examples of shifting out of perfection and into aligned actionWhat it truly means to build a values-driven life and businessHow to make decisions based on who you are today- not past versions of youWhy self-trust is the foundation for clarity, confidence, and sustainable growth Connect with Sarah on IG.
