Ep #357: MVP: Increasing Your Coachability

Do you resist coaching even when you know it could change everything for your business? Most people, coaches included, struggle to receive guidance in a way that actually produces growth. When someone starts exploring your thoughts and beliefs, it can trigger defensiveness, anger, or a sense of unsafety. Your brain is just doing its job, trying to protect you by keeping you the same, but the most courageous move is leaning into the discomfort and staying open to the process.   In this episode, I share how to increase your coachability and turn every interaction into maximum value. I walk through the mindset shifts and practical approaches that transformed me from a resistant client into what I call a value-receiving machine. If you want to get the most from your programs, your masterminds, or any coaching you receive, this episode will show you how. I also share examples from my own journey, including early experiences of extreme resistance and the strategies I now use to extract breakthroughs from every coaching opportunity.   If you want to start making serious money as a coach, you need to check out 2k for 2k.

When you invest in your business, are you getting the most out of it? Many entrepreneurs focus on what the investment might give them instead of what they bring to it, leaving huge potential untapped. The difference between a good return and a radical return isn’t the amount spent; it’s how fully you show up, how fanatically you engage with the coaching, and how you take ownership of your results.   In this episode, I share what it looks like to be a radical student and how that mindset produces 10X returns. You’ll also discover the specific behaviors that separate radical students from those who barely break even. From overcoming fear and discomfort to leveraging every ounce of coaching, I outline the strategies that ensure your investments don’t just pay off; they transform your business.

Are you holding back from offering your services or raising prices because you fear being called a "cash grab"? That shame can hit hard, making you question your intentions, integrity, and even whether you belong in this industry. It can keep you small, prevent you from serving your clients fully, and stop you from creating programs or offers that could have a real impact.   In this episode, I break down why "cash grab" is actually a derogatory term designed to shame entrepreneurs for running profitable businesses. You’ll learn how to maintain integrity while protecting profit, how to integrate your coach brain with your entrepreneur brain, why multiple offers don’t equal desperation or overwork, and how to handle the grief when others try to keep you small. Most importantly, you’ll discover how to distinguish healthy entrepreneurship from the shame that can stop innovation and growth.   If you want to start making serious money as a coach, you need to check out 2k for 2k.

Are you carrying shame around the way you hustle in your business? In this episode, I explore how hustle shame shows up for coaches and clients and why it’s one of the most damaging forces in our industry. When you feel shame about the work you do to achieve your goals, it affects how you receive coaching, how you relate to your clients, and how you view your own accomplishments. I share how understanding and addressing hustle shame can transform your mindset and your business relationships.   Hustle shame doesn’t come from the hustle itself. It comes from the thoughts and beliefs driving it.  I break down the five most common ways hustle shame manifests and how these patterns can sabotage both growth and satisfaction in your work. Tune in to discover how to stop hiding from your hustle, release the shame, and build a business that allows you to achieve your goals while staying fully present in your life.   If you want to start making serious money as a coach, you need to check out 2k for 2k.

Are you hustling to reach your goals, or are you working hard with intention? In this episode, I explore the crucial difference between hustle and hard work, two mindsets that drive how you approach your business and life. The way you work affects not only the results you create but also your relationship with those results. While hustle comes from fear and urgency, hard work is grounded in belief and intentionality.   Tune in this week to learn how to differentiate between hustle and hard work and why it’s important for both your growth and wellbeing. I'll share how shifting from hustle to hard work allowed me to build a seven-figure business and how you can apply this mindset to scale your own success, sustainably.   If you want to start making serious money as a coach, you need to check out 2k for 2k.

Do you ever feel like no matter how hard you try, life just keeps happening to you and nothing seems to go as planned? That was me for years, fully living in the hot mess identity. Luggage would get lost, technology would fail, people would show up late, and somehow none of it was ever my fault. I believed the world dictated my day, my energy, and my results, and I spent more time reacting to circumstances than leading my life.   In this episode, I share thirteen specific shifts that helped me shed the hot mess identity and consistently show up as a reliable, resourceful, and prepared coach and business owner. This includes honoring my word no matter the circumstances, planning for other people’s potential messiness, building buffer time into every part of my day, and stopping the habit of shaming myself or letting others shame me. By implementing these changes, I was able to move from chaos to calm, create space to execute at my best, and fully own my actions and results.   If you want to start making serious money as a coach, you need to check out 2k for 2k.

When it comes to creating the life or business you want, the biggest barrier is often the story you keep telling yourself about who you are. Identity urges are the habitual patterns your brain offers up that reinforce the version of yourself you’ve always believed to be true. These urges can feel as permanent as your DNA, keeping you stuck in old habits and sabotaging even the best-laid plans.   In this episode, I share how shifting your perspective from seeing these habits as fixed traits to seeing them as urges completely changed how I approach personal transformation. From breaking free of the “I’m always tired” story to moving past a victim mentality and the “I’m a hot mess” identity, I walk through how to notice the urge, sit with it, and choose differently. By learning to observe and respond differently to your urges, you can build a version of yourself capable of achieving far more than you imagined.   If you want to start making serious money as a coach, you need to check out 2k for 2k.

Have you ever noticed how the energy you bring to a consult completely changes the conversation and the results? In this episode, I revisit one of the most foundational mindset shifts that transformed my coaching and sales: seeing every client as whole, capable, and perfect right now, regardless of their circumstances. When you speak to clients from their highest self, objections shrink, connection deepens, and you create consults unlike any conversation they’ve ever had before.   You’ll hear how to practice this mindset before every consult, why it’s more impactful than any script or process, and how connecting with clients from this place of belief transforms your sales, your coaching, and the experience you offer. I also share examples from my own journey, from my first coaching calls with Brooke Castillo to working with clients today, illustrating how this simple shift can create extraordinary results and deeper fulfillment for both you and your clients.   If you want to start making serious money as a coach, you need to check out 2k for 2k.

Have you ever felt like something is missing on your consult calls, even when your process is solid? I’m revisiting this conversation because connection on consults is one of the most overlooked yet powerful skills in coaching. When you show up fully present, engaged, and genuinely caring about the person on the other end of the call, everything changes—for them, and for your ability to guide, serve, and inspire.   Connection isn’t about a perfect script or following a step-by-step process. It’s about fully seeing the human in front of you, believing in their potential, and holding a vision for them that’s bigger than their doubts. In this episode, I dive into how to engage with clients so they feel heard, understood, and capable of transformation. You’ll hear examples from real coaching situations that show how presence and energy on a consult make all the difference, and how tuning into shared humanity creates trust, engagement, and meaningful breakthroughs.   If you want to start making serious money as a coach, you need to check out 2k for 2k.

Do you show up for every consultation with the same energy and level of service, no matter who’s on the other side of the call? Most coaches treat consultations as a necessary step to getting paid, but they miss the opportunity to deliver one of the most valuable services they offer: the full experience of coaching. In this episode, I'm revisiting this important concept and breaking down why consultations should be viewed as a service, not just a sales call.   When you approach consultations as a chance to truly serve your potential clients, regardless of their financial situation, you’ll shift both your mindset and your business results. I’ll share a conversation with a 2K for 2K student who almost wrote off a prospect based on financial assumptions, and how shifting into service energy completely changes the outcome. In this episode, I’ll share why you should always give your best during consultations and how this mindset shift will serve you and your clients in the long run.   If you want to start making serious money as a coach, you need to check out 2k for 2k.
