From Zero to CEO: How Camila Reyes Built a 7-Figure Coaching Empire from Nothing

In this episode, I sit down with Camila Reyes, founder of Simple Strategy, to unpack what it really takes to scale a service-based business without burning yourself out. Camila went from working in global marketing and service design to building a consulting business that helps health and wellness providers reach consistent 6-figure months through systems, automation, and sales strategy.We talk about why she chose uncertainty over stability – not once, but twice, and why she refuses to call herself a “traditional coach.” Camila breaks down what it actually means to be a strategist, why most coaches avoid real business structure, and where she believes entrepreneurs go wrong when trying to scale.This conversation dives into burnout, hustle culture, unrealistic expectations in the coaching industry, and whether scaling is even the right goal for everyone. If you’re a service-based entrepreneur looking for clarity, stability, and sustainable growth, this episode will challenge how you think about building your business.Our Info:Instagram: realtor.tmg and_isaac_ramirezLinkedIn: Tristan Guerrero and Isaac RamirezEmail: [email protected] or [email protected]:Instagram: camilareyes.bizLinkedIn: Camila ReyesChapters:00:00 – What am I gonna do?
