Are You Ready To Take A Leap Of Faith In Your Health Coaching Business (Amber’s Story)

Sometimes life takes you to places you couldn’t possibly plan for. The key is to TRUST that everything is working in your favour and that it is all going to be okay.

I want to tell you Amber’s story, because it speaks to that side of all of us, I think, who want to live and work in an exotic place; doing what we absolutely love, and changing lives.

When I last caught up with Amber, she looked radiant in a sundress and a frangipani flower in her hair. The backdrop I could see behind her looked serene, tranquil, and, well, like she was Skyping in from a tropical island... and that's because she was!

10 Email Subject Line Strategies To Get More Opens

There’s no failsafe rule for writing email subject lines that convert people on your list into paying clients. But there are a few guidelines you can follow to get your emails opened and read more often.

When Mailchimp conducted a study on email subject lines (they’re continually monitoring what works and what doesn’t), they concluded that short, descriptive subject lines do way better than “splashy or cheesy phrases” (their words). You can view their email subject line best practices HERE.

Email Marketing is very much about testing and measuring, so experiment with different subject lines and see what works. If one is a dismal failure, it will at least give you an idea of what’s NOT working. There’s no right or wrong.

How Important Is Target Market Really?

Working out your target market is one of the essentials I cover in my UPswing Mastermind Program. In fact, it’s where we start off.

Every decision you make in your business relies on the intimate knowledge of WHO YOU WANT TO SERVE – knowing who they are, what they love, what keeps them up at night, what they’re eating, reading, watching.

Andrea came into the Upswing Mastermind with her health coaching hat on after recently graduating from IIN Health Coaching School.

She had 2 clients, but says she just didn’t know what she was doing. She had put in work to launch her website, but hadn’t spent a great deal of time defining her target market.

The Simple Secret to Telling People What You Do As a Health Coach

Have you ever wondered how to tell people what you do as a health coach?

It’s the question most new Health Coaches dread: “So what do you actually do?” How do you go about explaining what it is that you do?

In some circles your answer would be called your 'elevator pitch' - an explanation of what you do that could be shared in a quick elevator ride.

The natural answer that springs to mind when someone asks about “you” is to come back with “I am”.

Simple Colada Green Smoothie

My wonderful friends Jadah Sellner and Jen Hansard have an amazing book, Simple Green Smoothies and today I’m sharing my favourite recipe with you!

As health coaches, we know that green smoothies can replace almost every meal, but one of the genius ideas from the book is that we can also create healthy cocktails.

My all-time favourite cocktail is a Pina Colada, and whilst I only have these as an occasional treat these days, my eyes lit up when I saw this healthy Simple Colada in the book and Jadah and Jen have generously allowed me to share this recipe with you today!

Booking Systems For Your Health Coaching Business (+ How You Can Take Client Payments!)

When you’re setting up your successful Health Coaching business, it pays to have a booking system in place that will keep you from playing email tag with clients, or double-booking yourself.

(By the way, it is absolutely FINE to start out with Google Calendar if that’s what feels comfortable for you.

I’d love to share with you a couple of booking systems that might suit you and where you’re at in your business (And at the end of this blog post, I talk about what method I personally use to take client payments).

The Honest Way To Find Health Coaching Clients (It’s not what you'll expect!)

Did you know that the number ONE question I get asked by new health coaches is, “Where will I find clients?”

I go into exactly this in-depth my new 6-Week eCourse - but really, my answer to the question is simple.

“Your clients are all around you.”

They pop up in the strangest places; at the oddest times.

Here are a few stories from students of mine:

5 Steps To $5K Months And A Life You Love As A Health Coach


When choosing a coach to work with this year I was presented with the question:

"Do you want to create an empire or a lifestyle? They are very different paths..."

And without any hesitation at all, I chose the lifestyle!

You see there are plenty of ways to make great money as a coach, but there are very few plans out there that allow you to do so without working long hours and hustling 24/7 on Facebook.

And I don't know about you, but one of the main reasons I got into coaching was to live life on my terms.
