from Ren: Behind the Practice · host Ren Wellbeing

A behind-the-scenes conversation about what it actually feels like to build a practice in the early stages — where there’s effort, consistency, and momentum, but still a lot of uncertainty around what’s actually working.In this episode, I’m joined by Ellie Hyvonen, a life and health coach who supports driven, perfectionistic women in reconnecting with their energy, building sustainable habits, and creating a more aligned way of living.What we explored:• Why building a client base is harder than most certifications prepare you for• The gap between taking action and knowing if it’s the “right” action• How word-of-mouth and real-life connection are driving early traction• Why trying multiple strategies is part of the startup phase (not a failure)• The importance of real conversations over perfect content or systemsIn the early stages of building a practice, the work isn’t about doing everything perfectly — it’s about staying in the process long enough to find what actually works.Ellie’s links:→ Website: https://www.youarewholecoaching.com/→ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ellie_hyvonen/→ Free gift: https://preview.mailerlite.io/forms/2059598/178069743792555231/shareSophie’s links:👁️ Work with me: bio.site/ren.wellbeing👁️ Book a Behind the Practice Podcast Conversation: https://calendly.com/sophiecampise/podcast-interview-ren-behind-the-practice👁️ Follow along on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ren.wellbeing/👁️ Everything else: https://www.ren-wellbeing.com/🤍
