There’s no way around it: If you want to build or grow your online coaching business, you WILL have to do scary things from time to time.
Although feeling afraid is normal, we can’t let it hold us back (because if we let fear run the show, it will) – and that’s what today’s episode is all about.
I’m outlining the different types of fear many online coaches experience – fear of failure, imposter syndrome, fear of the unknown, fear of judgment or rejection, etc. – and explaining how you can overcome each of them. You’ll learn what I consider the first real “test” of entrepreneurship + how to pass it with flying colors, my perspective on failure, and so much more.
Don’t miss this one if you plan to chase big dreams in 2024! Fear is bound to creep up on you – your success depends on how you handle it.
