You're getting people in your DMs…so why aren't they turning into clients?

In this episode of The Divorce Revolution Podcast, I'm breaking down one of the most frustrating parts of building a coaching business—when you're finally getting engagement, conversations are happening but nothing is converting.

Because the truth is, a lot of coaches think the problem is their content. But what I see over and over again is that the breakdown actually happens inside the DMs—in how those conversations are being handled.

And I get it. Nobody really teaches you how to do this. You're trying to be helpful, you don't want to be pushy, and you're just kind of figuring it out as you go. But there are a few very specific mistakes that are quietly costing you clients.

In this episode, I walk you through the three biggest ones I see all the time—why they happen, and what to do instead so you can start leading these conversations in a way that actually moves people forward.

This episode is a little different. It's not just strategy—it's the real, behind-the-scenes of what it looked like for me navigating divorce, financial fear, and the decision to invest in myself when I felt anything but ready.

Today, I'm sharing a very personal story from one of the hardest seasons of my life and how a moment involving a Louis Vuitton bag completely changed the way I think about money, fear, and betting on myself.

If you've been holding back, overthinking, or waiting until you feel "ready" to take the next step in your business, this is your reminder that you don't need more time—you need a decision.

At some point, you have to stop "trying" to build a coaching business…and decide you're actually doing it.

In this episode of The Divorce Revolution Podcast, I'm talking about what I call the $1,000 decision—the moment where you stop treating your business like something you're testing out and start committing to it like it's happening, no matter what.

Because I see this all the time with new coaches. On the surface, it looks like you're doing the work—you're posting, learning, tweaking, trying. But underneath it, there's still hesitation. Still second guessing. Still a part of you that's in "practice mode."

And that's exactly what keeps you stuck.

In this episode, I break down what that shift actually looks like, how to start thinking like a CEO instead of someone just "trying," and why confidence doesn't come before momentum—it comes because of it.

If you've been stuck in "practice mode" and wondering why your business isn't moving forward, then this episode is for you.

Why does getting clients feel so heavy…like every post, every DM, every move has to work?

In this episode of The Divorce Revolution Podcast, I'm sharing one of the biggest shifts that completely changed the way I approach getting clients—and honestly, made my business feel a whole lot lighter.

Because I know what it's like to feel like everything is high-stakes. Like every post has to perform. Every conversation has to turn into a client. And when it doesn't? It's so easy to spiral, overthink, and start questioning everything.

But the truth is, that approach will burn you out fast.

So in this episode, I'm walking you through how to start thinking more like a CEO instead of getting stuck in emotional ups and downs. We talk about why attaching too much meaning to every single action in your business is keeping you stuck—and what to focus on instead if you actually want traction.
