This episode is the fifth in a series diving into The Coaching Business Flywheel and the fundamental parts of a sustainable coaching business. In this episode, Robbie and Ruth focus on the part of the Flywheel that often creates the most fear and resistance for coaches: telling people how you work, how much it costs and how to pay you.

It couldn’t be clearer that unless you do this, there are no clients to coach. And yet, so many of us are filled with fear, hesitance and/or ickyness when it comes to the money conversation. In this conversation, we’ll try to change that.

We cover:

Resourcesand tactics that can help you think about how YOU want to work with clients, and how to talk about that authentically.

How to rewrite your stories about money.

Why buying coaching for yourself will make ALL the difference to your money conversations.

How to change the default so that you tell more people how you work and how much it costs, instead of almost never doing that.
