Branding and Tech made Easy for Coaches with Jennie Lakenan and Deena Rutter
Two of the foundational pieces for coaches these days is an online presence and branding. After all, how will you quickly reach more of those people who need you without leveraging technology?

CEO Mindset as a Foundation for your business
As we continue this Foundations for Your Coaching Business series, I want to dedicate this third episode to the idea of CEO mindset. For this, I offer 5 concepts. However, prior to considering them, you must first own and solidify the truth that you are, in fact, a CEO. If you are coaching others as a business, and not simply an enjoyable hobby, you are the CEO of your business. But this, for most people, is a huge identity shift. It can feel intimidating, even foreign, and as I discuss it, it may feel like I must be referring to someone else. But I assure you, I am talking to you. So envision this new version of you, and let’s talk about embracing a strong CEO mindset as a foundation for your business. “When you know where you’re going… and what needs to shift and come together… it allows you to move up… with greater clarity, greater stability and greater ease.” – Molly Claire What You’ll Learn Embracing the truth that you’re a CEO 5 Concepts of a Strong CEO Mindset #1: C.E.O. = Creating Every Opportunity Types of opportunities Not overdoing #2: How you make decisions Fear of trusting yourself / making mistakes What will serve you well #3: You are the boss Choose what kind you’ll be Step up and own that energy #4: Define the roles that you play Be in the proper role at the appropriate time Segment, fill skill gaps, and reject assumption #5: Uplevel, uplevel, uplevel Don’t shun support Identify how and when you’ll increase your skills Contact Info and Recommended Resources Are you a mission-centered Life Coach ready to build your profitable + purposeful business?

Foundations for Your Coaching Business: What you need to know
A strong foundation isn't the most exciting topic but it's critical to create a thriving, growing business. So where is your foundation strong? Where is it weak? With the right foundation, it's easier and more fun to make money, change lives and expand your business. But, if one area isn’t strong, if it’s breaking down, it will affect the others. That's why I’m launching this new series, Foundations for Your Coaching Business. I’ll have multiple guests to discuss various topics including finances, legal, tech, branding, and more. In this episode, I address the fundamentals. Because without firm foundations, you'll find yourself floundering a bit. Now, before we begin, allow me to encourage you: if you've struggled at all in this area, it's never too early or too late to set up and reinforce your foundation. “What I want to offer you is that you can get to work, and you can do your business, and you can do your skills, and you can move forward… and you don’t have to wait until you’ve solved everything inside of you to build a business.” – Molly Claire What You’ll Learn Foundations in coaching skill mastery Confidence it delivers Fills skill gaps Foundations in business Longer but simpler list Lower fraud complex Strong starting point Foundations in personal life Invisible things Take a pause You matter Contact Info and Recommended Resources Podcast episodes that pair well with this one: 5 Traits of a Masterful Coach: How are you doing? 10 Tips for Master-Level Coaching Connect with Molly Claire Drop me a comment or question: Instagram | Molly Claire Coaching IG molly@mollyclaire.com Facebook I’d love to hear your feedback about the podcast: Please leave a review of The Masterful Coach on your favorite podcast platform.

Breadwinner Energy: An Interview with Tay Daniels
The empowerment and energy to be the breadwinner in your own life is what lights up many female entrepreneurs. It is what drives them. Myself included. I recall, vividly, that feeling of helplessness and financial dependence I suffered when I went through my divorce. I was becoming a single mom and had no idea how I was going to provide for myself and my children. Someone who can relate very well with my experience is Tay Daniels, a podcaster and Certified Life and Business Mentor of women who are ready to become 6-figure CEOs. Tay, like me, built her business through her divorce and entry into the world of a single motherhood. Also like me, she discovered her strength of inner spirit to make her own money so she could have what she wanted in her life. She relates how that fueled her to not only succeed for herself and her daughter but for other women out there. “Breadwinner energy is not just money… it is literally the way that you feel. It is the way that you show up… the way you carry yourself… loving yourself, loving your life… When you do that, and you really fully step into that power of yourself, you become financially independent.” – Tay Daniels What You’ll Learn Limiting our female breadwinning Breadwinner energy – what it is and what it’s not Investing in your freedom Information or transformation Holding a standard in pricing Not tying to your “worth” You’re not lower than others Sticking with it Contact Info and Recommended Resources Podcast episodes that pair well with this one: How to charge for coaching even when you're scared to Women Rising Above Limiting Beliefs Together Connect with Tay Daniels Tay is a multi-business owning wife and mom living in the Midwest, host of the Breadwinner Energy Podcast, and Certified Life & Business Mentor for women who are ready to become a 6-Figure Sustainable CEO.

The Validation Trap and how to get out of it | Rebroadcast
As humans, we all seek validation. But seeking it from your clients is a trap that can sabotage your coaching. Not only does it shift your focus from where it should be (on your client), it creates highs and lows in your coaching. Unfortunately, it can be easy to have validation trap tendencies and not even know it, so please don’t judge yourself too harshly. In this episode, I share numerous ways to identify this trap, recognize if you’re slipping, and avoid the temptation. Mastering this valuable coaching skill will serve you well throughout your career, plus increase your overall success. “Wanting validation is very normal… it’s only because you are a helper type of person… that’s not anything you need to judge yourself about… [but] have awareness of it so that you can decide what to do about it.” – Molly Claire What You’ll Learn 3 Validation Trap Lessons: #1 - Identifying the trap Pleaser role Misplaced focus Safe space interruption Positive responses sought Inhibited honesty Suppressed empowerment #2 - Recognizing you’re trapped Helpful confirmation Praise high Uncomfortable with another focus Unnecessary validation #3 - Avoiding the trap Don’t take credit Hold curiosity Define separate success Appropriate space Contact Info and Recommended Resources Advanced Certification Training in Motherhood and Family Life – Enrollment is OPEN but there are ONLY 12 SPOTS.

Bonus Episode: Why Moms Won't Pay for Coaching
It can be argued that moms are the most difficult to convince that they need–and deserve– personal coaching. They are, perhaps, the most wired to set aside their own needs and focus on others. As a whole, moms find it very difficult to invest time, money, and energy into prioritizing themselves. As we tackle this reality together, I want to examine three issues that might be barriers to new clients signing up with you. In considering each of them, I hope some insights emerge, enabling you to connect on a more personal level with potential clients. By knowing why moms won’t pay for coaching, you can better market your ability to help them… and help them say yes. “These women you’re talking to – struggling with motherhood and life and their relationships and all the things – they don’t really believe that something different is possible… [or] how much better and more expanded their life could be.” – Molly Claire What You’ll Learn Two complementary buckets of skill mastery Issue #1: Dissolving the fraud complex barrier Issue #2: Dismantling coach speak Issue #3: Discovering different is possible Contact Info and Recommended Resources Mom Coach Webinar with Molly (it’s FREE!): Monday, March 20, 2023 at 12:00 p.m. (Central Time).

How to be a better coach: A conversation with Corinne Crabtree and Molly Claire
Giving your clients some quick and easy wins to encourage them, knowing how and when to go deeper, making things understandable and digestible – these are skills we learn. As a coach, you have the power to enact amazing change but clients need to be ready for what you have to offer and be able to understand it. So you need to tune into the right time and tactics. To discuss all this, I interviewed Corinne Crabtree, a master coach, the CEO and founder of No BS Weightloss, and host of the Losing 100 Pounds with Corinne podcast. Corinne has a passion for helping women change generational health and wealth issues. She and I talk about the art and joy of increasing our coaching mastery while showing women that there isn’t anything wrong with them and that they can change their lives. Corinne shares blending mindset with tactics, quick wins to combat fear and anxiety, breaking coach-speak, talking like a normal person, and so much more. “We have to get back to basic questions. Like, start with a question that your client can understand. And I spend a lot of time breaking coach-speak… First level mastery is learning how to talk like a normal person.” – Corinne Crabtree What You’ll Learn Tapping into a passion for helping women Blending mindset with tactics Offering quick wins to combat fear and anxiety Talking like a normal person Coaching your coach friends Sharpening your skills with written coaching Leveling up through being coached yourself Contact Info and Recommended Resources FREE 30-Days of Coaching Mastery Skill Tips from Molly at Instagram | Molly Claire Coaching IG Book: The Big Leap by Gay Hendricks and FREE Video: The Big Leap Video Book: Running on Empty: Overcome Your Childhood Emotional Neglect by Dr. Jonice Webb Podcast episodes that pair well with this one: 10 Tips for Master-Level Coaching Coaching Skill Mastery: 5 Big Coaching Mistakes Connect with Corinne Crabtree Corinne is a Master Certified Weight and Life Coach with a mission to help every woman break generational curses in order to improve their personal health and wealth.
