Even in this age where menopause and longevity being buzzwords of the year, images and marketing terms are centered around young, youthfulness, and anti-aging.

Jay Croft creates original content for trainers, gyms and studios. Everywhere you write, speak, or create video, you are a copywriter. I rounded up a professional...

She Means Fitness Business
If you’re hoping to create a retreat or simply to deepen relationships and loyalty among your clients and members, (as we all should), then you’ll love this.

Among the most fun activities we did during a recent 4 ½ day retreat was charades. We also held a team...

How to Get Your First Midlife Coaching Client
She Means Fitness Business
Ask. If you want to get your first midlife coaching client (or your hundredth) you’ll have to ask. As you listen, this is a day in the week that ends in “y.” If you didn’t ask someone to become a client and you want clients, are your actions congruent with what it is you say you want? I could give you a whole lot of platitudes here. I could share content that suggests you define a niche and create an avatar. And there are plenty of episodes here about that, but this isn’t one. To get your first midlife coaching client isn’t hard given women tend to seek trainers and support...

info_outlineSay, you’ve got it good. You’re liking your life right now. Do you need to learn the art of letting go of good to get to great? Though it might sound too much like a Jim Collin’s book, it’s literally what today’s guest has done. More than once in her life. And she’d done it in midlife.
If you want to reach a new level of influence, power, or success, that you might define as revenue or freedom of time, you may have to stop doing something. Either stop completely, or delegate it to someone else.
Listen closely to this episode where one successful book may or may not lead to another. One successful podcast may have to go away to birth a better one.
For you… I wish whatever you’re dreaming about … or better.

Questions We Answer in this Episode:
-
You mentioned starting this new podcast and how it's already out-performed your first and made the comment about having to let go of things. The universe is speaking to me apparently. It falls in alignment with 10x is easier than 2x philosophy where to grow really big and explode you may have to let things that are doing "pretty well" go. What was your reason for starting this new adventure?
-
Are you letting go of something in order to support it?
-
And how does/did that feel?
-
Have you done this before in your life and business?
-
Any advice to listeners who are or who want to be coaches and trainers and aren't right now? What if they just feel pulled to become trainers but have no formal training just such a strong interest, what would you say might tell them this is a fleeting thing vs a real life-loving game-changing pursuit?
