Elusive and Much Sought After

Confidence is kind of a squishy and sometimes elusive thing. Especially when you're a new coach, just starting to build your business. Or if new to any type of undertaking.

Building your coaching business from the ground up is a marathon not a sprint. It really take time and brain power and creativity. It can feel like a roller coaster and the Imposter Syndrome is in your face a lot. You're alternately elated then stuck then overwhelmed.

I totally get it.

I'll tell you, I've only been podcasting for 5 months. The learning curve is super steep. I'm still a bit green, learning how to improve audio quality, plan well, get it all done, content upgrades, getting more people to my show... on and on.

So my confidence level is like the tides, ebbing and flowing. And sometimes it ebbs so far out so that I cannot hardly feel it at all! And then I get a high tide where I'm feeling pretty good, you know I think I'm doing pretty well.

I'm really lucky to be a part of a support group that keeps me going. And by the way I just launched Prosperous Coach Club, which is a support group for new coaches. Find it by going to https://prosperouscoach.com/fb. We'd love to have you join into the excellent conversations there about how to get clients, accomplish weekly goals, technology recommendations — all sorts of topics. It's a place that you can be vulnerable and gain confidence!

So confidence comes and goes.

Do you know what comes before confidence? The pre-cursor if you will?
