You’ve probably seen endless success stories of how x person went from $0 in her bank account to a multiple bazillion dollar business in 6 months after they hired a coach. These stories are everywhere in the online space and while they can be a testament to what IS possible for you, they feel, more times than not, discouraging. Especially if you’ve been trying to grow your business for a while and have been struggling to do so by yourself or even worse if you’ve hired a coach and it hasn’t worked out for you in the past.

This is the exact reason why I want to talk about a very important thing that you need to know about hiring  a business coach so that you can see the results you crave and deserve once and for all. 

But before I dive into the one thing that you need to know about hiring a business coach, I want to remind you that I am a business & confidence coach myself. I am a business coach with 6+ years of experience in this industry who has helped countless clients start, grow, and scale wildly profitable coaching businesses. I do believe business coaching is one of the greatest catalysts for success, but I also believe that not enough coaches are real about what that looks like and in turn leave upcoming entrepreneurs feeling ‘less than’ all the success stories that they read about.

Today’s blog post is not only going to help you realize the one thing you need to know before hiring a business coach but it will revolutionize the way that you show up for your business forever – so ready or not, here we go!

The one thing that you need to know before hiring a coach (that most business coaches will NOT tell you) is that investing in business coaching will NOT get you results.

Say what???

Yes, I’m not just saying this to go viral or to fight against the status quo, I’m saying this because it is the truest truth you can embrace today.

Don’t renounce the idea of success through business coaching just yet though, let me further explain before you lose all your hope and drop all your dreams.

For the purpose of simplifying this massive new reality for you, let me give you an easy example that most women can relate to.

Let’s say you want to lose 15lbs and you’re struggling to do so. You can buy the best book on going Vegan, you can join the fanciest local  gym, or you can even hire LA’s most famous celebrity trainer, but if you don’t consistently show up for that experience, you will not see results. Let me repeat the magic sentence here – show up CONSISTENTLY. 

Consistently, does not mean that you read 10 pages of the book and then let it collect dust for months, it also doesn’t mean that you go to the gym 14 days straight and not put on your workout shoes until next January, and it sure as heck doesn’t mean buying one session with that ultra famous personal trainer and never seeing him again.

Is this starting to make sense to you?

The investment itself is not the magical key to your desired outcome, your commitment to show up for that investment fully, consistently, and LONG ENOUGH for it to work is.

With the same token, is not the investment itself that will catapult you into your next level, it is who you become through the journey of success that will determine if you will… well… succeed.

So all those success stories you read about, they’re real (or at least some of them are), but they don’t happen simply because they decided to put a big investment on a credit card. The results happen because these magical humans were willing to show up through the difficult times, they were willing to get outside of their comfort zone more than they ever have before, and because they did not stop until they saw  in real life the results that they saw in their minds. It’s not because it wasn’t hard at times, it’s not because they were never scared, it’s not because everything was butterfly and rainbows (although it can eventually be MOSTLY butterflies and rainbows), it is because uncomfortable, consistent, strategic action with the right support by your side trumps perfectionism every darn time.

This is true for every single client that I work with that creates out-of-this-galaxy success and it will be true for you too as long as you remember that the power to transform your current circumstances lie within you more than anything or anyone else. Having the right coach by your side, however, is what will help you stand in your own magic and support you through the intricacies of making money, getting clients, and creating the coaching business of your dreams.
