As coaches, we need to be okay with leaning into both what we know and what we’re not yet comfortable with. In fact, at first our coaching journeys often start out somewhat self-serving. We learn because we’re passionate about a particular aspect of life, typically one we’ve personally experienced. And when we’re able to couple that with an existing area of our genius, magical things happen.

To discuss this and more, I interviewed Dan Purcell. Along with his wife, Emily, Dan is the founder of Get Your Marriage On!, a marriage intimacy improvement coaching company and Virgo Development, a software development company. While we talked, Dan discussed pushing through discomfort, leveraging your genius, and no longer trading hours for dollars. He also shared his experience with finding a coaching model, creating a membership program, building customized client software, and more. I found this all very exciting because making things simpler for your clients (and yourself) is powerful.

“Success is always on the other side of your discomfort… There is always going to be a big unknown… embrace it.” – Dan Purcell
