  • Summary

  • Mindful Coaching is not just a skill; it's a movement. In a world obsessed with "getting more done," many feel the urgent need to help people in a more profound way. And many of us have found that the more mindful we are in our life and work, the better or experience of life and the quality of our work. We make better decisions and inspire deeper connections in ourselves and others because we are committed to being more deeply connected with ourselves and the world. In becoming a professional coach and coach trainer, I experienced (and still do!) a great deal of hype and predatory marketing targeting coaches. So, I created The Mindful Coach Association. A safe haven and community of mindful professionals where we can connect, collaborate, and support each other in our learning, lives, and success. Free from the constant drone of mastermind pitches and promises of instant wealth. As the founder of the association, I talk to a lot of coaches. One day, after listening to a particularly inspired coach doing great work with the LGBTQ+ community and also hearing from another working with immigrant populations to help them adapt to a new culture, I felt like wow - "People really need to hear about this work." But there is no venue for coaches who are doing amazing, important work but aren't publishing books, doing podcasts, TV shows, selling out masterminds, and "crushing 7 figures." And if you take the many thousands of inspired, courageous coaches doing great work with challenged populations - this is a mighty force indeed - but one that has no voice. The Mindful Coach Podcast was created to give a voice to those incredible coaches whose work is unheard and unheralded. Now you can hear their stories of great work that is going on in the world, work that you may not otherwise encounter -and be inspired as I have by the collective goodness that's blossoming in the world. And you are a part of this work! Beyond these stories, the podcast is a gateway to a vibrant community - The Mindful Coach Association (https://mindfulcoachassociation.com) Here, you'll have the opportunity to engage in enriching conversations with our guests and fellow mindful professionals during our weekly meetings. It's a safe, collaborative space where individual actions culminate into a powerful, unified force. No upsells or pitches. Moreover, this podcast is designed to aid in the growth of your practice. We introduce you to exceptional services and cutting-edge technologies, including AI, to enhance your productivity and success. Additionally, a coach is always growing their skills so you'll gain invaluable insights and practical tips from experts in new and powerful coaching modalities. If you're a coach or helping professional and interested in mindful-somatic work, check out my website at The Mindful Coach website at https://themindfulcoach.com Tune in, leave a review, and become part of the Mindful Coach Association. Together, we amplify our impacts, elevating not only each other but also our clients and the world at large. Together, we are a mighty force.

  • Marketing for the Mindful Coach: Overcome Resistance and Share Your Gifts

    Marketing for the Mindful Coach: Overcome Resistance and Share Your Gifts
    Apr 25 2024

    Many coaches and therapists want to grow their businesses to reach more clients but are blocked in marketing. Promoting your services often raises fears of judgment: "What if people don't like me?" or "How can I focus on just one niche?"

    Using mindfulness, we can separate our identity from our offers. The success or failure of a marketing message is simply feedback about the marketing, not you.

    And for those of you who feel that focusing on a niche is just too small for what you do, tune-in for suggestion that can truly reframe the "that's too small" point of view to one that allows you to fully inhabit your work in a niche, without feeling like you're giving up a larger part of your work.

    As strange as it may sound, marketing serves a higher purpose when you serve a higher purpose.

    In today's world, marketing is a means of sharing your gifts with people who need them. Instead of experiencing marketing as a dreaded task, it becomes a crucial part of your mission.

    Listen in to hear:

    • Strategies to work through inner blocks to marketing
    • Mindset shifts to align marketing with your mission
    • The case for starting a niche when building your coaching business
    • Where to find help with technical aspects of marketing
