Rene Kamstra: Why Your Superpower Is the One Thing AI Can Never Replace

What would it look like to build a business you could run from anywhere in the world, without being chained to back-to-back clients? In this episode of The Soulful Catalyst, I'm joined by Rene Kamstra, Business Growth Consultant, Life Coach, Speaker, and AI Integration Trainer. Over 30 years, Rene has coached more than 11,000 people across 31 countries, and she now helps growth-oriented professionals design and build location-independent businesses they can run from anywhere in the world. Rene grew up around business. Her father, a sharp entrepreneur with a music business, was sending her to auctioneers in second grade with a blank cheque and a lesson in buying low and selling high. That early confidence, she says, became the foundation for everything. It taught her she could speak and do business with anyone, and she's been proving it ever since. What struck me most in this conversation is how Rene talks about the difference between doing coaching and owning a coaching business. So many practitioners build something that looks like freedom but functions like a job. Rene's nine-step process is designed to change that, starting with who you actually are and what you were born to do, then building the structure, the systems, and the support around it so the business can grow without you doing everything yourself. In this episode we explore: ➤ Why most coaches are running a job, not a business, and the mindset shift required to become the CEO of what you've built ➤ How AI and virtual support can free you up to focus on your genius, and why integrating both is a practical step, not a distant goal ➤ The three types of entrepreneur, and why knowing which one you are changes how you build your business model ➤ The importance of your story in building something unique, and why starting with who you are creates clients who stay for years ➤ Why your superpower is what AI can't replicate, and how leaning into that is the real competitive edge right now This episode is for any coach or practitioner who built their business for freedom and quietly wonders why it still feels like a constraint.
