How To Be Confident As A New Health Coach - The Ultimate Guide To Coaching Confidence!

Hey healthy lady!

Taking the leap to become a health coach is SO EXCITING… but it’s also downright scary!

It is common, normal, and completely natural for new health coaches to lack confidence in their ability to get great results in their coaching sessions.

Let's just think about this logically: How could you possibly be confident that you will get amazing results in a coaching session if you haven't yet done it?!? You can’t!

I watch SO many new health coaches sitting on the sidelines…

Waiting to feel confident before they start coaching…

Or maybe even investing another $5000 in a second or third coaching certification…

When in fact, it’s impossible to feel confident without actually getting in the game and getting started first!

How To Nurture Potential Clients With Newsletters (Using Mailchimp)

We’ve spoken a lot about promoting yourself, and building an audience via engaging content, in exchange for email addresses and I’ve had mixed responses ranging from ‘Super Excited’ to have these tools now and ‘Oh so Overwhelmed’ with technology.

I get it – I know you didn’t necessarily become a health coach to be a tech wiz, but there is a bit of business know-how that is needed to build your practice and get clients, so I will continue to create more ‘How-To’s’ to help us collectively rise – be seen, be heard – as health coaches.

Technology will not hold us back from making a BIG difference in the world!

Should You Quit Your 'Real' Job?

I witness many new coaches waiting for someone to hand them a permission slip to go for their dreams and leave their 'real job'.

When I first wanted to start a Health Coaching business I went through the following waves:

  • I ‘think’ maybe I could do this…

  • My colleagues think I’m crazy…

  • I’ve seen others making money from coaching….

  • But others are telling me it’s not possible….

  • And maybe it’s not…

  • But I REALLY want to do this…

  • Could I really leave my job?

  • Yes…no…yes…no…

  • Arrgggggg

Yes… No... I will... I won't...

How To Make A Good First Impression (Especially In Person)

I was reading Lisa Messenger's latest book on the weekend and something she spoke of in there really resonated with me.

The Top 7 Cafes to Work from in Bondi

One of my favourite parts of working for myself is the ability to work from different locations.

When I travel, I love to explore new cafes and working spots - last year I worked from cafes in Paris, Abu Dhabi, Miami, LA, Mexico, Singapore and New Zealand - yet equally every time I come home to Bondi Beach here in Sydney I feel so super excited to get back into ‘everyday’ life as we really do have some of the best working cafes I’ve found.

I frequent different cafes every week to mix up the atmosphere depending on my mood or the task at hand. I also do my regular Wednesday Working Dates from some of these cafes so have shared with you which ones are good for wifi use too!

How To Be Super Productive With This 2-Steps Trick For Getting Sh&t Done

I’ve dabbled in many different time management and productivity techniques over the last few years as an entrepreneur - self-motivation is something I've wrestled with a lot if I don't have a strict deadline in place.

I think it's a retaliation against years of a boss standing over me - timesheets to fill in and unnecessary 'emergency' deadlines causing stress in the corporate world - but as much as those things strangled my freedom at the time, I must say, they ensured I got sh&t done.

Working for myself isn't always so easy...

It's not that I don't 'want' to work - I LOVE what I do - but it's more a matter of focus.
