There is a balance between coaching and mentoring, where coaching focuses on asking questions and mentoring involves sharing experiences and advice. Building a coaching business takes time and involves starting with one-on-one coaching, then moving on to group coaching, retreats, and online programs. Passion is magnetic and attracts people who resonate with your message and offerings. Building a connection with your audience and validating your ideas before creating a product or service is crucial. Success in coaching requires commitment and the willingness to do tasks that may not always be enjoyable. Following your heart and finding inner happiness can lead to prosperity and success. It's important to have a long-term vision and be willing to invest time and effort into your business. Coaching is a journey of personal growth and self-discovery. Having a team can help you scale your business and create more free time for yourself. Fully commit to your vision and overcome resistance. Embrace your unique gifts and show up in the world. Make peace with money and understand that it is an amplifier. Surround yourself with a supportive team. Consider niching in coaching to stand out. Have a grand vision for the future and be patient in its realization.
