EPISODE 126: Staying In The Coaching Game With Caryn Gillen
It can seem like life coaches are a dime a dozen these days. The truth is, the industry has become pretty saturated and if you’re a coach, the current business landscape can feel a little daunting.
That’s why it’s more important than ever for you to double down on your commitment to transforming lives - while also building and growing a sustainable business that really works for (and with) your own life.
I invited Caryn Gillen, a fellow life and business coach to join on me on the show to talk all things coaching - what it really means to be a coach, building a successful coaching business, navigating the current industry landscape, loving your clients and doing whatever it takes to do the work that you know you’re meant to be doing in the world.
In “Staying In The Coaching Game” Caryn and I are diving deep into some transparent talk about becoming and being a successful coach.
We’re going beyond the marketing and business strategy talk and getting into the nuances of building a coaching business by being an exceptional coach, caring deeply about the people you serve and waking up everyday feeling lucky and grateful that this is the work you get to do. Plus, we’re tapping to the potentially game-changing fact that having a business coach who is also a transformational life coach could be the key to getting to the next level in your professional journey.
Tune in as we discuss how Caryn made coaching her life’s work, the reason her business model is based on generosity & being a real human being, the benefits of her deep-rooted belief that all her clients are “remarkable,” and how she is using the deep impactful coaching she practices to raise the goal of industry standards.
Join me for a high-vibe heart-to-heart with a fellow Passionate & Prosperous business owner who truly brings to vibrant life what this show is all about.
