How would you like to make half a million dollars/year, charging $3750/month for 2 coaching sessions?

If that's the kind of business you'd like to run, this is a conversation you can't miss, because that's exactly what Barrett Brooks has built.

Barrett coaches 7-figure creators and founders. Most of them come to him to hit specific revenue numbers, and they often do that, but the secret is that it's not usually a tactic or external thing holding them back.

It's usually internal, and they'd never have found out their own emotional or psychological block before working with Barrett.

This is why he can charge what he does, and why he gets the results he does.

We talk business, but we also test out something crazy...

Barrett coaches me live for the last half of the call, and I think you'll find it incredibly relatable and helpful.

(Also, on a meta level, seeing someone coach, live, is one of the best ways to "prove" your value to potential clients, so as coaches, try to find a way to do this. Barrett does it here, but also gives another way he's done this to get his first clients.)

Scott is a crazy impressive dude, and I have actually known about him for like 10 years...but only just met him.

He hosted a successful podcast (300-400k downloads/month) about building an Amazon FBA business.

That turned into a $1.7M business that he eventually walked away from (we get into WHY in this episode).

After a few more 6 figure at-bats that ultimately didn't excite him enough to keep going, he joined forces with his son to start Live Video School...and within 12 months, his brand new YT channel made him $115,000 and counting, AND built him an 11,000 person email list.

And he used none of his existing contacts/lists.

This is an insanely valuable episode where you'll get to see what it can look like to start a fun lifestyle coaching biz, all the way up to building a 7 figure empire.
