I’VE DONE IT ALL—Certifications, Masterminds, 1:1 Coaching, Courses, Retreats…you name it-I’ve done it. There’s a lot of great info out there but there’s also a point when your mind starts to get saturated with all the advice& tips& tactics.
I believe in being a lifetime learner but I also recognize there comes a time when more information is NOT going to help. So what’s a girl to do? How do you take care that the next investment is the right one& not just more of the same regurgitated advice?
1️⃣Take a minute.Taking action is great and you DEFINITELY want to be one of the do-ers BUT don’t swipe your card or jump into the first shiny program that promises to ease your pain. That tendency to rush is often born out of a feeling of desperation&lack. Sleep on it, meditate on it..breathe and be patient. If its truly meant for you it will still be there tomorrow.
2️⃣Interview your mentor. Every coach should offer a free discovery call. The call is to connect and see if the 2 of you are a good team..because that’s what a coaching relationship ultimately is.Does the person have a track record of happy clients? Do they answer questions intelligently? Do they legitimately seem to CARE ABOUT YOU and YOUR CHALLENGES? If you can answer those 3 questions with a YES then you’re probably in good hands.
3️⃣Don’t be cheap. There’s a difference between not having the money & being nervous about spending it. If you’re truly strapped for cash don’t waste the coaches time with an hour-long call. They aren’t going to take you on and teach you everything they know for free (at least the good ones aren’t). But if you’ve invested money in the past and had bad results or feel hesitant about spending, that’s different & quite normal. Bring it up, get it out in the open& give them an opportunity to speak to your concerns.
Do you doubt them? Or do you doubt YOURSELF? Money is just money.You’re going to spend it somewhere. Usually there’s a deeper emotion at play.
