Raving Coaches

 This is one of those conversations that stays with you. Sheila Williams is a coach doing powerful work with men—yes, men—who are showing up grumpy, resentful, and tired... and don't know why. You'll hear us talk about how society's shifting expectations have left many men feeling unappreciated and unsure of their role, and how Sheila gently guides them toward reclaiming their confidence. We dig into referral dynamics, marketing with “soft touch,” the difference between coaching men and women, and how your energy shows up before you even say a word. If you've ever coached a man—or loved one—who “doesn't do emotions,” this episode is for you.

What happens when your nervous system resets everything—your identity, your voice, your business? In this week's episode of Raving Coaches, I sat down with Michelle Holling-Brooks, founder of Unbridled Change, whose journey through a near-death coma and complete memory loss led her to rebuild her life (and eventually her coaching practice) from the ground up. We talk about how horses became her first teachers in healing, and how intuition, energy, and presence have become the foundation of her work with clients today. Michelle shares how she went from hiding behind what she calls her “science shield” to creating a powerful framework called The Bridge of Connection. She now helps clients move from fear into love—by befriending their nervous system, their inner critic, and every part of themselves they've been told to suppress. This one is for every coach who knows they're still only showing 50% of what they're capable of.

You love referrals—they're warm leads, already primed to trust you. But are you making it easy for people to refer you? In this episode of Raving Coaches, I will tell you the truth of why most coaches (even you) struggle to get referrals and what you can do about it.  You'll learn how to craft shareable content that makes it easy for others to spread the word, how to train people to refer you in a way that feels natural, and when to ask for a referral (without feeling awkward). I also discuss my Stop Calling Yourself a Coach - Start Telling People What You Really Do course that helps you clarify your message so referrals become second nature.

What happens when you stop trying to lead like someone else and start leading from your actual strengths? In this episode, leadership coach Tami Chapek shares how she went from corporate burnout to building a 9-coach company focused on authentic leadership development. We dive into how your natural approach—not borrowed scripts—can build client trust, improve visibility, and set premium pricing that actually sells. Coaches will walk away with fresh insight into leadership as a marketing tool, and why confidence often starts with clarity.

You've probably heard it: “Create your ideal client avatar.” Maybe you've even filled out one of those worksheets asking what kind of music they like or where they grocery shop. Yeah… I've done it too. And I'm here to tell you—it's a waste of time. In this solo episode of Raving Coaches, I break down why those avatars are based on myths (either you're describing yourself or just guessing), and what actually works instead. I'll walk you through the three things that make up your real coaching sweet spot and how your Endotype reveals who you're built to help. If you're ready to stop guessing and start marketing in a way that actually fits you, let's go. Links & Next Steps:

If you're a coach who makes decent money but still feels broke—or can't figure out why the financial freedom you imagined hasn't materialized—this conversation is for you. I sat down with financial coach Melinda Chapman, and what we uncovered is something I've seen again and again: coaches who are bleeding money, not from giant mistakes but from tiny, repeated habits. Melinda calls it “death by a thousand cuts”—the coffee runs, the coaching programs you bought out of hope, the subscriptions you forgot you had. This episode is a grounded, compassionate look at money for smart, capable women who are tired of feeling like they're working too hard for too little. You'll hear how to spot the real leaks in your finances—personal and business—and how to stop spending money as a form of self-soothing (yes, we went there).

When you blend in, your dream clients can't find you. In this episode of Raving Coaches, I'm sharing what I realized while sitting at a networking event full of coaches who all sounded exactly the same. If your marketing feels flat—or if you're tired of people not “getting” what you do—this one's for you. I'll walk you through why common coaching buzzwords are killing your marketing, how your client's brain is wired to filter you out, and what you can say instead to finally get noticed. Plus, I'll tell you how to stop camouflaging your business and start standing out, using the insights you'll discover in the Endotype Formula and by attending my Are You a Copycat Coach workshop.    https://ravingcoaches.com/copycat

Not every coaching client is a dream to work with—and that's okay. In this episode of Raving Coaches, I break down how to handle difficult clients, from those who want therapy instead of coaching to the ones who just won't take action. I also talk about how your Endotype Formula influences who you coach best and why misaligned clients might be a marketing issue, not just a personality clash. If you're tired of wondering why some clients drain you, tune in. You'll walk away with strategies you can use today to create better-fit client relationships.

Tracey Bee's journey from lawyer to niche strategist is one every coach will recognize. After years of being “too much” in law, she stepped away, came back different, and built a business that blends her courtroom expertise with the emotional intelligence she couldn't suppress. I was inspired by Tracey's willingness to reinvent as she was growing realizing what she loved about the coaching she was doing, and what she didn't like at all. That is a big part of getting to the unique work that only you can do.  As you listen, notice how Tracey uses strategy, role-playing, and emotional filtering tools to prepare clients to stand strong in court—even without a lawyer. Could these be helpful in your coaching? And of course, as you are coaching women who realize divorce is part of their growth process, keep Tracey Bee, The Divorce Solutionist, in mind for referrals. 

Does your unique body of work feel like a burden, or a playground? In this week's Raving Coaches Podcast, I challenge the myth that doing what you love has to come at the cost of everything else. Drawing from my own journey, the Endotype Formula, and insights from Elizabeth Gilbert and Marianne Williamson, I am offering a path toward aligned work that lights you up—and pays the bills. If your coaching business feels heavy, this episode is your invitation to play again.

What if your client's job struggle isn't about motivation—but about misalignment? In this episode, Laura talks with career coach Ash Cross (Enhancer Endotype) about what it really takes for neurodivergent individuals to thrive at work. From assessing readiness to change, to redefining success based on energy levels, Ash reveals a more humane and personalized approach to career coaching. You'll also hear how Ash went from overworked employee and freelancer to full-time business owner by designing their systems around their neurodivergent brain—and why that's made all the difference. This episode is essential listening for any coach who supports diverse thinkers or who wants to build a business that works with—not against—their natural wiring.

 In this episode of Raving Coaches, Laura Hulleman invites coaches to move beyond their “generalist” phase and start claiming their unique body of work—the specialized combination of experiences, tools, and natural abilities that make your coaching unforgettable. Laura shares her own deep-dive process that helps coaches articulate and own their signature work. She breaks down the signs that you're close (even if you can't see it yet) and explains why feeling like “you made it up” might actually be a clue you're on the right track. Are you a Copycat Coach?

This week on the Raving Coaches Podcast, I sat down with Christiane David of Green Wealth Legacy—a financial coach who works alongside her three sisters to guide high-achieving women through the emotional and practical side of money. In this episode, we unpack “financial intimacy,” a term that might change how you see your bank account forever. We talk about the common anxiety women feel about money—even six-figure earners—and why ignoring your numbers might be the very thing keeping you stuck. Christiane also shares how they structured their coaching program based on each sister's strengths: mindset, budgeting, debt, and credit.

What really makes up your coaching genius? In this second episode of a four-part series, Laura Hulleman, host of the Raving Coaches podcast and creator of the Endotype Formula, reveals the three elements of your unique coaching genius: your Endotype superpowers, the skills you've picked up over time, and the life experiences that shaped you. Laura breaks down why your certifications are only part of the puzzle—and why your unique body of work matters more. Coaches will walk away thinking differently about their niche and the kind of clients they're meant to serve.

What does it mean to be seen—really seen—in your life and your business? In this week's Raving Coaches episode, Laura talks with Steph Shanks about redefining success, navigating reinvention, and the radical act of visibility. If you've ever felt like your work isn't the whole story—or that you're meant to offer more, but you're afraid to say it—this episode is your permission slip. Steph's story will remind you that bravery isn't always loud. Sometimes, it looks like finally raising your prices, finally offering the retreat, or finally stepping into work you thought was “too much.” This conversation is especially for coaches who are sitting on a body of work and don't know how to share it—or sell it. My coaching superpower is helping you discover and release that unique body of work.  It's time to claim the work that only you can do.  Links + Resources: Steph's Portrait Sessions + Retreats Endotype Formula Quiz Strategy Call

Coaches often struggle with visibility, pricing, and client acquisition—but what if those struggles go deeper than business strategy? This week's guest is Scotti Moser, a former lawyer turned transformational coach, who helps women release emotional patterns from narcissistic parenting that are silently sabotaging their success. If you grew up in an environment where you had to stay small, avoid conflict, or constantly prove your worth, those patterns don't just disappear. They show up in your coaching business. She shares with us: ✔️ The 4 deep-seated beliefs that make visibility, pricing, and selling feel so hard ✔️ Why your business might be “breadcrumbing” you—and how to shift it ✔️ The #1 missing piece in traditional mindset work that keeps coaches stuck If you've ever wondered why you're not making the money you should—or why marketing feels overwhelming—this episode will help you connect the dots. Tune in now and start breaking free from old patterns.

Do you realize the importance of building a relationship in developing coaching clients? Your “discovery call” is a primary way to do so. But many coaches misunderstand the how-to's of  the call. Let's be real — calling it a "discovery call" could be the first mistake. Why? Because clients have no idea what they're about to "discover." It's intimidating and unclear. Is it a sales call? A therapy session? Will you “discover their deep secrets and are they ready for that?  Even more important than what we are calling them is your understand of three phases of your call: Getting to Know You: Establish rapport and begin building trust. The Sample Session: Give your potential clients a taste of your coaching. Help them experience the value you offer. The Sales Process: Seamlessly transition into selling your services without any icky feelings.  By the end of this episode, you'll have a clear understanding of how to turn your “discovery calls” into a valuable tool for both you and your clients.

Have you ever felt like you should just “get over it”. The grief around loss can be a tricky space to navigate. This week on Raving Coaches, I chat with grief transformation coach Karen Taylor to talk about why understanding grief—and the grieving process—matters for all coaches, not just those working with loss. Karen shares how she built her coaching business using TikTok, digital products, and in-person events, along with what she learned about showing up consistently. Laura breaks down the marketing lessons coaches can take from Karen's approach, including why coaches need to position their work clearly (not just call themselves a “coach”). If you've ever felt stuck in how to reach the right clients or explain what you do, this episode is for you.

This episode continues the conversation from last week about how to get clients — but this time, we focus on how to get them interested in what you offer. The fact is, most potential clients don't care about your certification or your coaching process. What they care about is how you can help them solve their problems. We'll walk you through crafting your message so you can stop wasting time talking about the wrong things. I'll help you figure out how to talk to potential clients in a way that resonates with their needs and motivates them to take action. By the end of this episode, you'll have a few ideas of what to say and know exactly what to not say. Dialing in your messaging IS what will get you paid. If you need help dialing in your message, take a look at “Stop Saying You're a Coach – Start telling people what you really do” program: https://ravingcoaches.com/stopcoach

Are you ever overwhelmed by so many ideas - great ideas, but they get you stuck in analysis paralysis? Or, does that ever growing endless to-do list keep you avoiding action in your coaching business?  Today I talk with Michelle Gruening, a tough-love business coach who helps first-time entrepreneurs break through limiting beliefs and take action. Michelle shares why so many new coaches get stuck in idea overload—trying to do too much at once and underestimating the time it takes to build a sustainable business. She explains how to break out of the cycle and focus on the right next step, not all the steps.  Plus, we dive into her approach to avoiding burnout by identifying and offloading the draining tasks in your business. If you're tired of spinning your wheels and ready for clarity, this episode is for you.

The most common question for a coach is "How do I get clients?" When you become a coach, did you realize how much of your success would ride on you being great at sales and marketing? Nobody teaches you that in coaching school, right? But now it's time to learn the basics of client acquisition. We dive into the first part of the solution — Where are my clients? Your warm market is just the beginning. Let's talk about strategic networking. And how to avoid “time thieves” — activities that seem productive but aren't actually helping you connect with your ideal clients.

Financial Clarity for Coaches with ADHD Running a coaching business is already enough of a mental load—so why is money management the thing that trips up so many coaches? In this episode, I am talking with Sherry Andrew (Manifestor Endotype) about how to finally feel in control of your finances—even if you have ADHD, hate spreadsheets, or feel like you never know where your money is going. She shares her personal journey from being fired after 17 years to becoming a financial coach for self-employed entrepreneurs with ADHD. We get into the biggest financial mistakes coaches make, why paying yourself first changes everything, and how to set up financial systems that actually work for your brain. Coaches are some of the most over-marketed-to entrepreneurs. Change your title on social media to “Coach,” and suddenly everyone has a course or system you need to buy. But if you're spending more than you're making, you're not running a business—you're running a very expensive hobby. In this episode, we talk about how to create a profitable coaching business without over-investing in unnecessary tools, certifications, or marketing tactics that don't work. Profit isn't something that happens after five years (that's a myth!). Start paying yourself right NOW.

If you're exhausted, questioning your coaching business, or wondering if you should go back to a traditional job—this episode is for you. This week I discuss the truth of coach burnout, why it doesn't mean failure, and how to know if you should quit, pivot, or simply get better support. Let's talk about mental health, finding the right coaching bestie, and why every coach needs a coach (at the right time). If you're stuck, frustrated, or just need a gut check—don't miss this conversation.  

Facebook is dead for marketing your coaching, right? Not if you ask this week's guest. Recently I got to sit with visibility and list-building expert Tracy Beavers (Visionary Endotype) to talk about why Facebook still works for coaches—just not in the way you might think. Tracy shares her best strategies for making your profile a client magnet, using groups to build trust, and getting people off social media and into your email list (where the real money is). We may just have to add this to our Social Media Series we did in 2024.

In this episode of Raving Coaches, Laura Hulleman breaks down why social media isn't the magic bullet for growing your coaching business—and what actually works. She shares why platforms have shifted from relationship-building to glorified billboards, and how most coaches are missing the real steps that turn followers into paying clients.

Leaving a steady paycheck to start your own coaching business isn't just a career shift—it's a whole new way of thinking. In this episode, Wendy Herrmann (Contributor Endotype™) and I dive into what it really takes to move from employee to business owner without losing your mind in the process. She knows because she has done it successfully.  Wendy and I first connected through the book "My Walk My Way," to which I organized and Wendy contributed to. Our professional relationship deepened when Wendy said yes to my Identity Aligned branding, utilizing the Endotype Formula. This collaboration helped Wendy refine her brand identity as an Explorer, aligning her business authentically with her personality and values, and providing her with the tools to move forward confidently in her entrepreneurial journey.  In our fantastic conversation Wendy shares how she transitioned from a corporate role into consulting, coaching, and facilitation, why “personal growth is professional development,” and what she learned from experimenting, failing, and ultimately landing in the right place. Could patience be the skill you are missing as you develop your coaching business? If you've been thinking about making a move—or are already mid-leap—this episode is packed with insights you can use right now.

If you're ready for some real talk about your coaching business and what it takes to create a life you love, this episode is for you. I get candid about what it means to define success on your own terms—not someone else's six-figure benchmarks or "should-haves."

Success isn't just about paying the bills—it's about building a life that aligns with your dreams, whether that's a lake house, a warm winter escape, or something else entirely.   This episode is a heartfelt call to action for coaches who are ready to go all in for 2025.

In this episode, I break down the misconceptions about building courses, memberships, or low-ticket items before you've nailed your full coaching packages. I'm calling out the blind spots in the traditional "stair-step" marketing model and sharing why focusing on your high-ticket offers first might actually save you time, money, and energy. Plus, I'll show you how to create a track—not just a funnel—that works for your business and aligns with your goals.

So many coaches blame Imposter Synrome for their lack of success in business, especially sales. In this episode, we discuss aligning your pricing, the connection between money mindset and imposter syndrome, and why the fear around asking for your worth might not be what you think. If your still trying to overcome, silence or move through imposter syndrome, you're missing the gift of it. Instead of pushing those thoughts away, I encourage you to slow down, identify the real warning they're offering, and use that information to move forward with confidence. It's not about doing more or being more—it's about understanding the parts of your mindset that are holding you back and working with them to make choices that move you closer to your goals in 2025.   Visit Laura at her Facebook Page.

Many coaches struggle with the idea of sales. In this mini episode, I dive into the process of sales, exploring how to shift your mindset and approach to selling without feeling icky or pushy. Whether you prefer sending proposals, listing prices on your website, or having a personal conversation with potential clients, it's about finding what aligns with your process and your way of working. I also share a method I've seen work well for many coaches—the "Costco method" of selling. Think of it like offering a sample of your coaching: give potential clients a taste of what working with you is like, and let them experience your process. By framing sales as part of the coaching experience, you'll begin to see that sales and coaching are really the same thing. You're helping clients see the value of what you offer. If you have the solution to their problem, it's your job to make them aware of it.   Visit Laura at her Facebook Page. Learn more about the Endotype Formula™  TAKE THE Endotype™ QUIZ

In this episode of Raving Coaches, we are going to take a moment to reflect on 2024 so we can begin to plan for 2025. With the holidays approaching, it's easy to get swept up in distractions, but now is the perfect time to ask yourself: How did 2024 go for me? Did I hit my income goals? If not, why?   This information is key as you begin to plan for 2025. I share wisdom from my friend Teresa Romain about setting goals without letting their success—or failure—define you. This shift in perspective can make all the difference as you align your goals. Plus, I'll walk you through setting realistic, incremental targets to build momentum and avoid burnout.   If you've been losing confidence in your ability to “make the jump” in your coaching business, this episode is for you. I know how easy it is to hesitate after a few tough hits, but now's the time to reignite your passion. Whether you need a new strategy, a fresh perspective, or the right support system, 2025 can be the year you make it happen. I'll also share why keeping your options open with “or something better” can bring unexpected wins and why your journey—not just your goal—matters. Let's reflect, reset, and get ready to make meaningful progress in the year ahead.     Visit Laura at her Facebook Page. Learn more about the Endotype Formula™  TAKE THE Endotype™ QUIZ

(Builder) In this episode of the Raving Coaches podcast, I had the pleasure of speaking with Jordan Keefe, a coach who specializes in helping men overcome pornography addiction. Jordan's personal journey of battling with porn for 14 years and almost losing everything has led him to a place where he now supports individuals in rising above their addiction and quitting for good. His approach is unique in that he doesn't follow a traditional 12-step program but instead focuses on teaching the secrets of breaking the cycle, thinking independently, and regaining confidence to heal broken relationships. Jordan's message is clear: overcoming addiction is possible, and he provides the tools and guidance to make it happen. Jordan also shares valuable insights into his marketing and client acquisition tactics during the interview. He discusses his lead generation strategy, which involves offering a free guide on the three biggest hurdles to quitting pornography. This approach allows potential clients to take the first step towards seeking help and understanding the process of overcoming addiction. Jordan's method of gradually introducing clients to different levels of support, from free resources to one-on-one coaching, showcases a strategic approach to client engagement that listeners can learn from and implement in their coaching businesses. 00:03:16 - Jordan's Background and Journey into Coaching 00:06:47 - Prevalence of Pornography Usage and Addiction 00:18:25 - Evolution of Jordan's Coaching Market 00:25:27 - Jordan's Approach to Coaching Moms 00:32:29 - Lead Generation Strategies in Coaching   Connect with Jordan at https://takeabreakfromporn.org/  LinkedIn     Visit Laura at her Facebook Page.

I had the pleasure of speaking with Kristie Reph, a financial coach who has an inspiring story of paying off $290,000 worth of debt, excluding her house. Her personal journey led her to become a financial coach, helping others break free from the cycle of debt and develop a healthy relationship with money.

She highlighted the need to address the emotional aspects of money and how coaching can help individuals see money as a tool for empowerment rather than a source of stress.
