Burnout from the 9to5 is impacting your coaching business

Oct 24, 2024
Life Coach burnout with a 9to5 and business sat at desk covering face
For 40% of my clients, they found coaching because they burned out, or came close. 
 
If you've been there, or close, or you feel like you're heading that way then this is especially for you. 
 
Holding down a busy job is ALREADY a lot. 
 
Starting and growing a business on top of that will require you to EXPAND. 
 
And when you're worried about burnout, that can feel like a lot. The concern over burning out again becomes a restriction. A fear it might happen again. 

It holds back in your business because you're trying to protect yourself, to prevent it from happening again.

But this is holding you back from clients and success and burns you out MORE.

What you need, is to EXPAND your capacity to lean into the burnout. While addressing the root cause and putting structures in place that prevent it. SO THAT you can still show up BIG in your business. 
 
Because until you do this, you are finding it overwhelming. If you struggle to show up daily in your business, even when you want to, this is a pretty standard sign your holding back even though you don't want to.  
 
This is not optimal for business growth. In fact, it's stifling it. 
 
Because while there may be things you need to address in your business, the problem actually starts in your mindset around the 9to5

The answer isn't to quit your 9to5 to soon either. As tempting as that may be.

Clients work with me so that they can stay, and leave on their terms. We do this by mastering their approach to the 9to5. Which makes you better able to handle the challenges of growing a business, and supporting clients who are going through similar, even if that's not your niche. 
 
Inside The Exit Plan we address these challenges head on. 
 
While there are some circumstances where you are indisputably managing a LOT, there are as many circumstances where, if you're being totally honest with yourself, the overwhelm is coming from the way you're approaching it. 
 
This pill takes courage to swallow. I'm not sugarcoating it because growth, well, it's uncomfortable. Because I respect you, and I know you take your coaching dream seriously. 
 
Because you didn't start a coaching business, to help people and do brilliant work in the world, only to let a lil old thing like your 9to5 get in the way of that. 😏
