Leah Gervais is a revolutionary business coach who turned a side hustle into a full-size business that earns six figures monthly. She is passionate about helping her clients prioritize their dreams. Leah founded Urban20Something - her first side hustle blog, helping younger professionals successfully scale an online side hustle to the point of it exceeding the usual 9-5 job. Leah saw the true potential of working on her passion and dedicated her life to helping others do the same.Teaching her clients not to let fear paralyze them and giving them the tools to conquer their goals. An entrepreneur at heart Leah's story began when she was a paralegal in New York but then realized that she didn't actually want to continue on the path of law. She didn't know what else she wanted to do, feeling paralyzed by her fears. She eventually declined her law school acceptances and decided to start a blog, writing about her experience being a millennial in New York City trying to find her way. Having a clear audience to connect with, as it was a common phenomenon for millennials to graduate from school but doing it out of default, or societal conditioning, rather than knowing what they wanted to do. By passing law school she was having impostor syndrome about starting a blog, not feeling like she had the authority to share any wisdom. Now understand the secret: Stop trying to quiet the voice of fear. People are looking for ways to silence it. But it never really goes away. She still experiences it at times, but is now more intimately familiar with it and will not let it stop her.Now helping entrepreneurs to take that leap and understand that they don't need to know their zone of genius before moving forward. Her entry-level program ‘scale your side hustle', is typically for people that are still doing their nine-to-five. The phenomenon in entrepreneurship that paralyzes people is looking for a single strategy, a secret of some sort. As someone who has built a 7-figure business and helped clients go from zero to 7-figures, the secret is action. When you're looking to get to a new income level, a really good place to start is to look at how to grow your audience. Everyone starts with zero followers and the best thing to do is tell yourself in a caring way that you've made it this far, putting part of yourself out there, getting better with every client that you serve, and using your emotional intelligence to do introspection.Multiple six-figure revenues is where many feel they really hit their stride. That entrepreneurship has many glamorized associations, whether it's traveling, living in a beautiful house, or buying nice things. The much deeper and more enjoyable thing is how you live your day-to-day life. There need to come a time when you don't hustle as hard as you did in the beginning, getting to enjoy the fruits of your labor. Honoring the life that you have, not just how much you can cram into a day, but getting to that level of sustainable success. In this episode:[02:07] Leah shares her background and how her story began After being accepted into law school and realizing it's not what she wanted to doStarted a blog about her experience as a millennial in New York City finding her wayHaving impostor syndrome and not feel like she had the authority to share any wisdom[08:19] You don't need to know your zone of genius before moving forwardHow everyone is looking for that key to successAs someone who has built a seven-figure business, the secret is to take action[12:09] What Leah's program looks like and the actions that should be takenPutting your action and energy toward visibility and reaching audience growthNot to get stuck in that dangerous

What's stopping you from quitting your job and starting a business?You'd be surprised to learn that for most of us, the answer is fear.Fear of failure, fear of uncertainty, and fear of other people's opinions. What we don't realize is that, when we embrace that fear, we open ourselves up to a new life full of opportunities and possibilities!In this week's episode of the Rock Your Money, Rock Your Life podcast, I interview entrepreneur, business coach, and founder of Urban20Something: Leah Gervais.After years of preparing to become a lawyer, Leah had a gut feeling that she was making the wrong decision and decided to refuse acceptance into law school.With this newfound freedom and uncertainty, Leah immersed herself in the online world of entrepreneurship and founded Urban20Something - her first side hustle blog with one goal in mind - to help younger professionals successfully scale an online side hustle to the point of it exceeding the usual 9-5 job.Since then, Leah has turned this side hustle into a full-size, 7-figure business, and is passionate about helping her clients prioritize their dreams, all while achieving financial freedom.
In this episode of the Thoughtful Entrepreneur, your host Josh Elledge speaks to business coach and mentor, https://leahgervais.com/ (Leah Gervais). Leah has a mentorship business, a coaching platform, and she and her team help budding entrepreneurs get their start and scale to their goals. They work with service-based entrepreneurs throughout various verticals. Leah and her team specialize in entrepreneurial mindset and marketing. Leah explains how social media marketing isn't necessarily controlled by platforms like Facebook. Her principle to address this is that you should ensure your marketing isn't reliant on other algorithms or platforms. You should focus on fostering prospect relationships on platforms where you retain full ownership of your digital assets. Don't stake your success on a platform's algorithms and guidelines. Leah also stresses that service-based business owners need to focus their efforts on sending their prospects through three different phases before prospects will buy from them. Consumers need to know you first, then like you, and then finally they will trust you. She also reminds service-based business owners not to forget about their existing client base (you can work with them again and again when they know, like, and trust you and your work.) Don't overlook the opportunities available within the client base that already trusts you. You shouldn't ignore the top of your funnel – but don't neglect the connections you've already made. You can expand and build out the funnel of nurturing new prospects without forgetting to explore your friends, family, and clients for opportunities. Leah believes that nurturing prospects is the most fun, creative, and unique way an entrepreneur can express who they are to prospects. Generate content that's true to you that offers value and exists in a place where your target audience will consume it. You can explore various marketing strategies here, whether that's video media, podcasting, micro-content with creative captions, or whatever else draws in your prospects. There is not one “best” marketing funnel, and every business is different, so be creative with your nurturing. Josh and Leah also explore how an entrepreneur goes from six-figures to seven-figures. Leah says she and her team suggest a three phase approach to tackle this. First of all, raise your rates and don't charge hourly. Do things on a project and result-driven basis. Next, say NO when necessary. You have to be exclusive and it might seem scary to “turn away money”, but the reality is that you have to be willing to say no when it's appropriate. Finally, be ready to shift from a one-to-one model to a one-to-many model. Get to a place where your business doesn't rely on how many hours a day you work on it.

In the 13+ years that I've been creating, re-imagining, and refining my brand, The Champagne Diet, I've witnessed many "experts" and coaches offer different approaches to business building. Some I've agreed with, and some have been downright damaging. One of the more popular approaches is finding your niche. And while I am not totally against niches, I don't think they are for everyone. If you've found something super specific and it's working for you and your audience - that's wonderful! I just know I could not do the exact same thing for the past 13 years, and almost every single one of my business clients has come to me feeling suffocated by the idea that she has to choose some specialized segment of her market and never veer off course. In today's episode, I'm sharing my thoughts on why the "niche" is dead and how we can begin to look at our brands from a completely different, more creative, empowered perspective.

She's going to be chatting about how we need to think differently about our marketing if we plan on scaling our offerings. “Get clear on the problem that you solve and release the way in which you need to solve it..” IN THIS EPISODE Leah's backstory and what led her to serving others. Feeling dissatisfied in your current journey. Letting go of labels and leaning into what you really do. Getting prepared for the next economic shift. Why Leah chose blogging and how she scaled her business. How to make sure you're not trading your dollars for hours your whole career. Starting with one on one clients before going one to many and why this is vital. When it's time to transition to one to many. Going from good to great. How lack of clarity can hold you back. Intimate marketing and aligning it with your offer. When to diversify the types of results you offer and when it's too soon.

Don´t miss the end of the conversation where Leah would tell you that, fear (lack of confidence) would never go away, but it is in you to work on it and ask yourself, Am I more afraid of going for what I want? or don´t go for it and to live in regret? That is the question! So...keep going, even if it is scary!

It doesn’t matter what adversity you face, with will, drive, passion, and a deep understanding of your goals and passions, you will succeed… no matter what success means to you. There are few who embody this more than Leah Gervais, founder, and owner of Urban 20 Something. Leah has always had a strong view of her dreams. From an early age, she had a “vision board” in the form of a picture of the New York skyline. She made it! She got into NYU and was working her way to a steady career in law, but something felt off. Instead of accepting any of her law school entrance offers, she decided to take some time off and travel through Southeast Asia. It was then that she started a small blog chronicling her life and the times. Fast-forward a few years and she realized that she was playing small. She invested in I Heart Coaching and despite the loss of her father mere weeks before the program began, she went all in. She was present and engaged at every call and she implemented. The loss of her father spurred her on toward living the life of her dreams because she realized that our lives are short. Wasted time is a waste of your skills, talents, and knowledge for all of those who truly need you. Listen in as Leah shares the path that she’s walked and why following her intuition and digging into her mindset has unlocked the path to her dreams. She has an inspiring story to tell and you truly won’t want to miss a minute. In this Episode: [01:58] Welcome Leah! She shares more about the success behind her story.
