Ep49: Working On Your Business vs In Your Business
from Craft of Coaching Podcast · host Kate Swoboda
There’s a big difference between working on your business and working in your business—and if you don’t make time for both, it’s easy to stall out. In this episode of The Craft of Coaching, we’re looking beyond daily to-do lists and exploring what it really means to work on your business as a life coach.It’s tempting to stay caught up in the logistical grind—emails, scheduling, content, client sessions—but without stepping back to assess the bigger picture, you risk building something that doesn’t align with your values, energy, or long-term vision. We’re sharing how to recognize when you’ve slipped into maintenance mode, what it means to shift into intentional CEO energy, and how even small actions toward strategic planning can make a huge difference.This episode isn’t a marketing blueprint or a productivity hack. It’s a reflection on the kind of business you want to build, and how to devote time to the structural growth that will sustain you. Whether you’re running your practice solo or slowly expanding your team, learning to work on your business is a skill every coach needs—and it starts with rethinking how you spend your time.Learn more and get bonus resources at https://TeamCLCC.com/beginCoaching + Courage + Community = CLCC.
