152: Quit Story: How to Know When to Quit Your Coaching Business to Start Something New (Kim Van)

I first connected with Kim online when we both started our coaching businesses several years ago. Since then, a lot has changed for both of us, but one of us has continued with coaching while the other has made a drastic pivot into an entirely different arena. Even though Kim was running a successful coaching business, she ultimately decided to stop coaching altogether to pursue another set of skills and passions. Today, she is an award-winning food blogger and content creator, and is well known for her Tik Tok videos where she recreates the best food from Vancouver's restaurant scene and Vietnamese food from her childhood. During the day, Kim happily works full-time in local government supporting the emergency and environmental needs of her community. With all that beind said… I am delighted to share that episode 152 of The Thought Leader Club Podcast (featuring Kim) is now available on iTunes, Spotify, and YouTube.   In this conversation, you'll hear about:   Why did Kim stop a coaching business and podcast that *was* working and signing clients?
