If you’re a coach or consultant working hard but still stuck, growth not matching effort, and the freedom you started for still feels out of reach, you’re in the right place.

Chris Dufey Podcast

If you’re still stuck selling, delivering, and scrambling for the next sale, this will hit home. One client added $318,000 in recurring revenue in 30 days. No viral reels. No fancy funnels.

The moment leads dry up, panic sets in. And the cycle starts all over again. I’ll show you how to break free from that trap and install the same 3-part system we use to scale coaches to $100K–$300K+ months...

Friday afternoon, 2022. I’m in a meeting, negotiating the sale of my company. 


Josh says, "Hold onto it, you’ll make millions more." But I reply, "I want to be more, not make more."


That was my decision—to choose family over fortune.


After 11 years building this business, I realized the cost was too high. 


My marriage? Neglected. 


My four daughters? Growing up faster than I could keep up. 


So, I stepped back.


Now? I'm helping other coaches build widely profitable businesses without losing time with my family. 


And it feels damn good.
