Starting a business has never been for the fainthearted, but some businesses require more of an investment than others — be it time, energy, or money. Many entrepreneurs who feel driven to follow their passion as creatives, service providers, or product developers may wind up feeling overwhelmed, and working too many hours without enough money to show for it. Coaching has become extremely popular not only because of the incredible value it delivers, but because running a coaching business can give entrepreneurs more money, time, and freedom!

In this juicy solo episode of The Business of Thinking Big, I answer one of the most common questions I’ve gotten over the years: why did I choose to launch and grow a coaching business?

Tune in as I share the top 5 reasons why you should consider becoming a coach, explore the practical differences between coaching and consulting, and reveal my own path to coaching (and how the title of my podcast nods to these humble beginnings!). If you’ve considered making a shift to coaching — or have already started your own coaching business — you won’t want to miss it!

In‌ ‌this‌ ‌episode,‌ ‌you’ll discover:‌ ‌

· The lifestyle benefits of running your own coaching and consulting business

· Why coaching and consulting businesses are recession-proof — and how my coaching clients fared during the pandemic

· How to start a coaching business with minimal investment in tech
