In this episode, Sarah has the pleasure of talking to Cecile Emery, a self-described "introvert's introvert". Cecile shares her journey from a successful career in the mobile gaming industry to a period of burnout and existential crisis that led her to retrain as a coach.Cecile gets candid about the reality of launching a business in March 2020 and the two years she spent "faffing around" before a critical lightbulb moment. She explains how she learned to embrace her identity as an entrepreneur and build a successful business as an introvert, without being "loud and shouty".In this episode, you will learn:Cecile's "Aha" Moment: How, as a "massive introvert," she volunteered to give a company talk just to get her own hotel room—and was shocked when 100 people showed up to hear her speak about introversion. This was the moment she realised her words could help people.The Post-Graduation Reality: Cecile describes the struggle of launching her business in March 2020. The advice from her training about "having the right energy" didn't translate into clients, and she spent two years working for platforms without building her own business.The Biggest Mindset Shift: The most significant change came from joining The Coaching Revolution: the realisation that she wasn't just a coach, she was "running a business" and was an "entrepreneur".Marketing as an Introvert: You don't have to be an extrovert to market effectively. Cecile shares her strategy of building systems to manage her energy drain, attending the same networking events to build community, and focusing on having deep conversations with one or two people instead of working the whole room.Her Niche - The "Good Girl Syndrome": Cecile works with "quiet leaders"—the introverted, sensitive, and reliable people who do the work. She helps those struggling with the "good girl syndrome," who get overlooked for promotions because they are too "convenient" where they are.The Power of Community: Cecile highlights the value of The Coaching Revolution's supportive, non-competitive Facebook group, describing it as a place to get "instantaneous support" from colleagues around the world, especially for urgent business needs like proposals or contracts.What's Next: Cecile is expanding her business after getting certified in supervision.Have you enjoyed this episode? Find out more and take the FREE quiz at: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://thecoachingrevolution.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Join the FREE Facebook group at: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/groups/buildacoachingbusiness⁠⁠

The worst part was this sense of being trapped, believing he couldn't get another job and not having the energy to try.Discovering Coaching: Paul found coaching while devouring self-help books and after receiving some counselling. He was drawn to coaching's forward-looking approach, but he never actually hired a coach himself.The Long Road: Paul believes that if he had hired a coach, he would have "sorted himself out" much more quickly. Instead, it took him "years and years" to make progress on his own. He eventually left his job after being offered redundancy.The Stigma of Struggling: Paul and Sarah discuss why highly conscientious people with a strong sense of duty are often hit the hardest. In competitive corporate environments, people are afraid to be seen as "the one that's struggling" , which leads to isolation, loneliness , and a sense of shame.His New Book: Paul is writing a book based on his experience, with the working title "What's Wrong With Me". It's the book he wishes he'd had , written to help people in the thick of burnout understand what's happening to them and to show them that they are not broken.Book Release: The book is planned for release by the end of October, and "definitely before Christmas".Have you enjoyed this episode? Find out more and take the FREE quiz at: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://thecoachingrevolution.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Join the FREE Facebook group at: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/groups/buildacoachingbusiness⁠

Instead of explaining her coaching process, she described the problems she solves. Instant recognition: "Maybe I need to come see you."The Hidden Truth About Coaching Businesses93% of coaches run portfolio businesses (ICF 2023)Most aren't transparent about how long success tookThat "successful" coach might only earn 10% from coachingIt's not about being smarter—it's about having the right skillsetWhy Coaches Are Vulnerable - By the time we realise traditional self-promotion doesn't work, we're feeling foolish, embarrassed, and ashamed.

In this inspiring episode, Sarah sits down with the "rather marvellous" Alex Atherton to explore his incredible journey from education leader to award-winning keynote speaker and author. After 25 years in education (including over 12 years as a secondary school head teacher), Alex took a leap of faith in 2018 to build something entirely new.What started as school consultancy evolved into coaching, then blossomed into a thriving speaking business that now generates the largest chunk of his income. Along the way, Alex wrote his debut book The Snowflake Myth, challenging negative stereotypes about Generation Z - the very students he spent years supporting in challenging inner-city schools.Key TakeawaysStart With Your Background (But Don't Stay There) - Alex emphasises that while you shouldn't limit yourself to your past, you absolutely must start there. His coaching clients weren't just educators - they were senior leaders across public sector organisations he'd worked alongside: police chiefs, NHS managers, local authority executives. The common thread? Complex, exhausting leadership roles that society needs done well.The 82% Reality Check - Alex credits understanding that "more of this journey is about marketing than being able to coach" as crucial to avoiding the 82% of coaching businesses that fail. Having expertise isn't enough - you need robust marketing systems and ongoing support.Business Evolution is Natural - From "coach who does some speaking" to "speaker who does some coaching" to "someone who knows about this stuff" - Alex shows how businesses naturally evolve when you stay open to opportunities and listen to market demand.Community Makes the Difference - The ongoing support network proved invaluable. As Alex puts it: "The game changes continually" - algorithms, pain points, client expectations all shift. Having engaged peers to navigate these changes together provides a crucial competitive advantage.About Alex's New BookThe Snowflake Myth challenges the tired stereotypes about Generation Z that Alex grew tired of hearing about his former students. Born from his speaking work, the book became his vehicle to engage with audiences far beyond education - from corporate leaders to farmers.Get your copy:

What does it really take to transition from corporate success to a thriving coaching business? Antonia Watson's journey reveals the surprising gap most newly qualified coaches don't see coming.The Monday Morning RealityAfter 20+ years in tech consulting as COO and Global Head of Workforce Strategy, Antonia discovered coaching during a post-pandemic career break. She loved her training at Henley Business School and felt confident in her coaching abilities. Then Monday morning arrived: "I need paying clients. Now what?"Despite her corporate background, Antonia discovered that marketing a global consultancy bears no resemblance to marketing yourself as a coach. She tried online research and mentoring, but was missing the practical steps to actually implement what she was learning.The Game-Changing QuestionEverything shifted during Sarah's Nail Your Niche Challenge with one powerful insight: "It's one thing identifying your ideal client, but how are you going to find them on LinkedIn?"This exposed her fundamental flaw – starting too broadly with "I'll coach professional women." You can't find all professional women on LinkedIn and message them personally. The practicality simply doesn't work.Going Deep for Real ResultsAntonia learned that effective marketing requires understanding your ideal client at an impossible depth. She now works specifically with senior women in STEM navigating change who want to advance their careers with clarity and confidence.This specificity transformed everything. She developed structured daily LinkedIn content, runs targeted webinars, built her website, and works with both individual and corporate clients. Many come from her former network who now understand exactly how she helps.The Unexpected TruthBuilding her coaching business became as much personal development as her coaching training. The skills are completely complementary – the deeper she understands her ideal client for marketing, the better coach she becomes.Through the Coaching Revolution's Advance Programme, Antonia gained practical tools from proposal writing to client sequences. The supportive community provides ongoing collaboration without competition, since everyone serves different niches.Her transformation from a qualified coach wondering "what now?" to confidently building a thriving business proves that with practical guidance and community support, the gap between qualification and success can be bridged.Ready to Nail Your Niche?Join Sarah's Nail Your Niche Challenge – the only challenge designed specifically for qualified coaches who want to stop marketing to everyone and start attracting ideal clients.
