485 | How I Made My First 100k (and What I Would Do Differently)

How much can nearly two decades of experience as a mental coach really teach you? When I first got into mindset coaching, Facebook was barely a thing, Tik Tok didn’t exist, most people hadn’t heard of sports psychology or mindset coaching, and the sitting president was George W. Bush.    So yeah, It’s been a JOURNEY.   On this extended episode of The Mindset Coach Academy Podcast, I’m boiling everything I learned down into 5 basic principals to help you build a solid coaching practice from the jump. These princiipals are not based on trends, they are timeless.    From making my first workbooks on powerpoint slides, to what certifications I chose to get (and why I chose them over a masters in sports psychology), I’m putting it all out there.     The reason I made this episode is because I know that many of you are sitting on the sidelines wondering which steps you should take. Or maybe you’ve started your own business and it’s a lot harder than you thought it was going to be and you’re getting frustrated.   Press play to get clarity about where you’re wasting time, energy, and resources, AND see a path forward to reach your goals. Whether that’s 10k, 100k, or your first million, it doesn’t really matter, the same fundamentals apply.    Whatever your goal is, I hope this episode awakens a belief in you that you can do this.    Let’s dive in.  Related Resources: Download our free e-book: “How to Become a Mental Performance Coach”: This FREE ultra-simple guide will show you how YOU can make mindset coaching your full-time career or part-time hustle.
