What if your mindset coaching skills, not your marketing, are the real bottleneck holding your business back?
I’m joined by Dr. Kasey Jo Orvidas, a psychologist and creator of the Health Mindset Coaching Certification, to explore how building stronger coaching skills, especially around client mindset, can dramatically shift both your client results and your business outcomes.
We talk about how mindset work shows up across the board—from client retention and satisfaction, to sales call conversions, and even how you create content. Kasey shares practical insights from her own journey and explains why addressing mindset goes far beyond just “good vibes only.”
If you’ve ever felt stuck with a client who “knows what to do but just isn’t doing it,” this conversation is a must-listen.
