Marni welcomes Bobbi Palmer in the Life Check Yourself studio, where they delve into the journey (read: trek) that is relationships, and love. The duo look at the little self-sabotaging traps we all find ourselves in and what we can learn from them. Bobbi is the founder of Date Like a Grownup. She's a mentor and dating coach, who's been helping women understand themselves and their dating patterns for the past 15 years. She was a first-time bride at 47 who found her happy-ever-after at an unconventional age. In this episode, Marni and Bobbi discuss how women create patterns that they keep returning to over and over again. These detrimental patterns then turn into the cycles that go on to define their relationship behavior and their general outlook on love. Bobbi encourages women to look inwards even when the fear of rejection and failure stares back at you.     Takeaways from this episode:  - How to break the cycle  - It takes courage   - Visualize what you want, it's out there  - Tip the balance   - Why do you have trust issues?  - Look inwards to break the patterns  It's Not You, It's Your Pattern [03:50] Bobbi explains that most of us create patterns, perhaps without even realizing it. As we continuously repeat them, even though they're yielding negative results, we end up feeling hopeless and shift the blame onto ourselves when things don't work out the way we envisioned them. This notion of “there's something wrong with me” is the story we've told ourselves because we've been unable to break free of our patterns. And as we get older, we get stuck in the destructive cycle. You are the one creating these patterns, and they, in turn, are creating your results.    Understanding them and looking inwards is the first step, and it takes fearlessness to be conscious of the thought process or behavior holding you back when it comes to dating. But it does start with you.    Finding your partner as you go through life becomes more about courage rather than how many men there are in your age range, or whether or not you're still in shape or what app you use.     Are You Afraid of … (Fill in the Blank) [06:10]  A lot of the time, we prefer not even trying rather than attempting and failing. It's a trap that many of us fall into where we hold on to the mantra of all men suck, or I want to be single. Because if it's a choice we're making, rather than an imposition, it somehow makes it okay.    This is a form of self-protection born of a fear of rejection, failure and perhaps repeating the same mistakes again. We've all been through an iteration of this. Bobbi elaborates on how we should look at it, where it's almost like a balance between all the fear that's holding us back set up against the vision we have of what a loving relationship looks like. And for a lot of us, we have trouble with the second part of the balance, because we've never been in such a relationship and envisioning it is difficult.    There's nothing wrong with you, there's just some things you don't yet know.   Once the balance tips more towards the other side, the dream of what a relationship looks like for you, that's when it's time to take action, bearing in mind that it's not always going to be 100% in par with your vision. And that's okay, too.    Make a Connection:  - Bobbi's Website  - Bobbi's Book  - Join Our Ignite Your Life Event on Feb 24 - 26  - Visit Our Website  - Subscribe to our Youtube Channel  - Learn How To Attract Your Perfect Equal… Watch Our Latest Training Here!  - Follow Along On Marni and Jeremy's Radical Living Challenge!  - Download A Complimentary Copy Of Our Book — How To Find A Quality Guy Without Going On 200 Dates

And that's what we're talking about with our panelists.Our panel is: Sherri Gerek from IPEC, the Institute of Professional Excellence in Coaching, Stephanie Griffin from  the Life Coach School, and Jennifer Voss of the Martha Beck Wayfinder Life Coach Training Program. Between them, these three schools have graduated tens of thousands of amazing coaches. Together, we're taking a closer look at trends, profitable niches, whether there really is space for new coaches, and of course, we'll pull out our crystal balls and make some predictions for the future.Listen to the full episode to hear about:Why you shouldn't be worried about getting into coaching in a downturnWhere the market is heading, and key reasons there is room for growthNiches and business models that continue to grow and whyOur predictions for the next ten years in the coaching industry Why there is definitely still room for you in the coaching industry (it's not oversaturated, we promise!)To learn more about Jennifer Voss:The Truth ExperienceWayfinder Life Coach TrainingConnect with Jennifer on LinkedInTo learn more about Stephanie Griffin:The Life Coach SchoolInstagram: @LifeCoachSchool Facebook: @LifeCoachSchoolYouTube: The Life Coach SchoolTo learn more about Sherri Gerek:iPEC: ICF Accredited Coach Training Programs & Life Coach CertificationsConnect with Sherri on LinkedInTo learn more about Bobbi Palmer:Date Like a GrownupTo learn more about Christie Mims:Coach PonyLinkedinBuild A Real BusinessResources: Life Coaches in the US - Market SizeInternational Coaching FederationIf you have some chocolate worth reviewing on the show, we are easily bribed! Email us at hello@coachpony.com with your recommendation or if you want to send us something to try!

Investing in your business is a fact of life.

OUCH.   This season of the Coach Pony Podcast, it's all about mistakes. I teamed up with Bobbi Palmer from  Date Like a Grownup to give you the lowdown on our biggest mistakes and lessons learned, so you don't have to learn the hard way.   Today, we're talking about business investment mistakes. From spending money to get good advice that your business just isn't ready for, to signing up for a program because someone you look up to did it, making mistakes in business investments can put you deep in the red and take time to recover from, financially and emotionally. And these mistakes happen to all of us.   Of course, we hope by sharing some of our stories we'll keep you from making the mistakes we did. But if you do? Give yourself some grace. You are not alone, my friend.   Listen to the full episode to hear about: Why you need to be clear on the return on investment before you write the check How to step back and evaluate any additional investments that may be required to get to the real total cost Why spending a ton of money on training or programs can be a bad idea for new coaches Three big pieces of advice for making business investments   To learn more about Bobbi Palmer: Date Like a Grownup Facebook: @DateLikeAGrownup   To learn more about Christie Mims: Build a Real Business Coach Pony Instagram @christiecoachpony   If you have some chocolate worth reviewing on the show, we are easily bribed!   You can send it to us at: Christie Mims, 3630 High Street, #19286, Oakland, CA 94619

We all make mistakes in life. And as a coach, you're going to make mistakes with your clients. You're not perfect and your clients (usually) don't expect you to be.But they will–consciously or not– take advantage of contract loopholes, poor enforcement, unclear terms and other not-so-fun ways to ask for services outside of what your intended agreement is.This season on the Coach Pony Podcast, I'm teaming up with Bobbi Palmer from Date Like a Grownup to talk about the mistakes coaches make when building their businesses. And today, we're diving into contracts.Contracts can be tricky territory with coaching because of the personal investment you develop in your clients. But bending your own rules because you hate saying no to someone you care about doesn't help either of you.From making your terms and conditions as clear as possible to setting your boundaries and sticking to them, we have been there, done that, written the scripts for handling it the next time.We want to spare you the pain and also remind you that when you mess up, you're in great company. Because we've all been there.Listen to the full episode to hear about:Why anything outside of the original contract, like an extension, needs additional termsWhy you can't agonize over every request for exceptions to your contracts or termsHow to use scripts to protect your boundaries around your termsWhy you have to have a clear refund and guarantee policy and why you need to put it everywhereChristie and Bobbi's top two tips for dealing with contractsTo learn more about Bobbi Palmer:Date Like a GrownupFacebook: @DateLikeAGrownupTo learn more about Christie Mims:Build a Real BusinessCoach PonyInstagram @christiecoachponyIf you have some chocolate worth reviewing on the show, we are easily bribed!

This season, we're diving into the mistakes coaches make when building their businesses. From contracts to relationships, to websites, we'll cover it all to save you time and stress, and most of all, to remind you that everyone makes mistakes so you are in good company. To help me with that, I'm teaming up with Bobbi Palmer from Date Like a Grownup. We have VERY different businesses, but we've made a lot of the same mistakes. And one of the mistakes that we have both made in our businesses is in our relationships. Whether it's mentors, friends, family, peers or partners, you're going to need people to rely on along the way.

Bobbi Palmer is The Dating and Relationship Coach for Women over 40 and founder of Date Like a Grownup. With her expert guidance; smart, independent woman from all over the world are now sharing the intimacy, passion and partnership of a grownup relationship with their special man. Fed up with being single, and determined to succeed in her romantic life (like she had in the rest of her life), Bobbi finally figured out ‘the man thing’ and became a first-time bride at age 47. Now joyfully married, she walks her talk every day as she helps women around the world do what she did: find fantastic, forever love after 40. Guiding Principle, Quote or Mantra “Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength. While loving someone deeply gives you courage.” - Lao Tzu Bobbi lacked courage for so long. The courage to love and be loved. And this is what she lives by in her marriage. When You Tripped Up When Bobbi was 35 she was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis and at the time it knocked her on her butt and gave her a wonderful gift. She was working night and day to have control over her life, putting it into her job and her career. This gave her a sense of control, but this diagnosis reminder her she really didn’t have the control she thought she did. Bobbi decided to get serious and look for love. She met a guy named Steve and they were together about 3 1/2 years. On their second date he told her he was never getting married again and he would never marry her.  The tripping up part was it took her 3 1/2 years to believe him. There were so many signs that he meant what he said. They had a great relationship, but they wanted different things.  But she didn’t want to see the signs and was convinced he would fall in love with her and change his mind. What Bobbi learned from this very painful experience is: take care of yourself, believe what men say and set boundaries for yourself. Really know what you want and if you aren’t getting it, ask for it. Proudest moment in partnership Bobbi’s proudest moment is jumping in with her husband, and being in her partnership with him for 10 years. It is the best thing she has ever done. It’s hard. It’s a long road and she is proud to have navigated it. When she was 45 she was so sick of being single and not knowing why. So she got help figuring out what it was that she didn’t know that other people seemed to know. For her to open herself up and acknowledge that she did not know how to do this was a really big deal. Putting her walls down was a huge deal. And her husband Larry and her met and married in six months. What is the best partnership / relationship advice you have ever received? Men are not hairy women. Bobbi learned this from Alison Armstrong. Respect your partner and work hard to understand them with compassion and empathy.
