Are you ready to transition into coaching full or part-time and want step-by-step instructions?

Yes?

You didn't learn how to build a coaching business in grad school, whether that was last year or 20 years ago.

In fact, you are realizing you have to un-learn being a therapist because much of what you were taught will never help you online with marketing.

You are realizing you are direct with people, future-focused and burned out working with trauma, drama and frankly, people who are either so ill talk therapy doesn't really help, or people who are complacent and not motivated to change.

You want to look at goals!

You want to be all in on motivated clients ready to take responsibility for their lives and just need help with that.

You are done, DONE with a capital "D" with being told to live (aka: help people) within a box (aka: insurance/50 min. session) someone else set for you, and it doesn't feel good (aka: fried, shakled, limited, STUCK)

Oh, and you realize if you would have built a biz, and didn't spend 100k on that Master's degree....like would look VERY different today.

You are oh, so freakin' ready for different.

Here's what different looks like, being able to:

  • Share your big mission by marketing online & off
  • Create your own schedule
  • Price & package your services with consideration of your wealth of experience, education and knowledge.
  • Nail your niche
  • Overcome your limiting fears & thoughts.
  • Shed "what if's?" or "Am I enough?" 
  • Follow a plan of action? 
  • Implement systems to serve your clients and help you with time management?
  • And do all of the other business building and growing things you aren't even aware of?

You have looked into coaching because you find it appealing, right?

Is this you?

You:

  • are a great listener & ask great questions
  • have badass, amazing skills to help people
  • have plenty of initials, credentials, education, experience and knowledge
  • are ready to learn exactly HOW-TO translate those skills into coaching, find your ideal client and have simplicity in your life & business
  • are able to follow a plan & a system

Yes?

Great keep going...

Coaching is for you if you are:

  • goal-oriented & direct
  • ready to help people the way you want to help them
  • committed to living up to your potential because you would regret not going for it

Heather Esposito

"I cannot say enough about working with Mary.  

My “issue” was that deep down. I wouldn’t allow myself to desire it, let alone admit that I wanted it. There was no congruency with my mind and my heart and it was incredibly frustrating.  

I had worked with other high level coaches who would spend so much time going through the “reasons” of why I felt the way I do but never got results, until now."  

Heather Esposito, Heath Coach

I had my very first 5k week!

Thank you Thank you. Everything that I have learned so far has been amazing.  

-Kathleen Stark, LLC Transformation Life Coach and Leadership Development

"I would say it is well worth the investment in yourself, because like I said, most of us are not taught business no matter what kind of coaching people are doing whether they're a therapist or they're in some other kind of healthcare, we're not taught business in school and this really helps with that.

Yes, the mindset work is like incredible. But the mindset work gets you to the point where you can hear about the strategic things you need to do, because without that I think if you’d started with planning and then systems I would have gone I can't do that."

That core values exercise was another big thing for me in kind of a surprising way because I’m not necessarily a person who says I don’t live by my values and don't know what they are but really honing in on that I felt like gave me a way to set direction but it also gave me a way on days that were frustrating to be like “oh but I'm acting according to my values right now” so it's just hard, but it's okay because there's a purpose for that hard “oh things are so things are difficult for now reason.” So for me it was well worth it. 

I would tell anybody to do it. I know that I'll be going back to things and I know I will go forward with things, so yeah. I am super thankful.  

-Lilian Werner, LPC

I wonder if you have the same questions I did?

  • I don't want to be pushy. (hey, if you even wonder this, you aren't)
  • You worry about investing money into a business if you haven't made money yet. (learning business building is a skill, and you know you need to invest in a biz, right?)
  • My license. (you can keep it if you want by doing this one thing first)
  • Whether I need ONE MORE set of initials behind my name. (no...period...you are the perfect person to become a coach you are already way ahead of others) 
  • What are the exact first steps. (you can learn this, your initials say you know how to learn) 
  • Selling and ethics. (no pushy salesperson required)
  • All the tech, oh god, all the tech. (just start with this one simple process)
  • How to actually show up online and in-person even though the introvert in me is screaming no way! (practicing with the right language is the key)
  • What could I offer and how to package it up. (there is a very simple formula for this)Imagine what life will look like on the other side of doing this Course.

Imagine living life on your terms.

Imagine creating the life and business you have always wanted.

Imagine saying YES to all the things your family wants.

Imagine being emotionally, financially and time FREE
