EP 349 - What It Really Takes to Build a Coaching Business After 50

If you're a woman over 50 building a coaching business and you've been wondering why it feels harder than you expected, this video is the honest conversation you've been needing. I'm not selling you a shortcut. I'm telling you what it actually takes so you stop feeling like something is wrong with you when the work shows up.If you're new to my channel, my name is Debbie Shadid. I'm a Business Growth and Life Coach and the founder of the Business Building Boutique. For over two decades, I've helped women learn how to become coaches, get clients, grow their businesses, and create meaningful income doing work they love.I went online thinking it was going to be a money machine. I was eighteen years into running a business and I still believed somehow that "online coach" meant the income would just show up. It didn't. And the gap between what I expected and what was actually required almost stopped me. I don't want that for you.In this episode, we'll walk through:Why building an online coaching business is no different than building a brick and mortar business (and what that means for your timeline)The mindset traps that keep coaches stuck in niche land forever and how to spot them in yourselfWhy bravery is the real skill behind every successful coaching businessHow to use an evidence bank to push back against the nonsense in your headWhy your business is 100% your responsibility and what changes the moment you accept thatHow to honestly assess your capacity when you've got grandkids, aging parents, or a full time jobWhat it actually feels like on the other side when you refuse to quitThis isn't a feel-good pep talk. It's the truth about what it takes, why most coaches give up, and what the women who make it have in common. If you've been wondering whether you have what it takes, this video will give you a real answer.Want me to teach you strategies to get coaching clients without paid ads?
