Hot Take: What I Wish I Could Tell Coaching Clients
I am sharing three honest truths that I wish I could tell coaching clients when they are deep in the struggle.
These are insights I hold closely in my own business, and they shape how I coach, how I lead, and how I navigate hard seasons.
Some of these truths are not always easy to hear in the moment, but they absolutely transform how you show up in your business long term.
If you ever feel like you are carrying too much, worrying about things you cannot control, or frustrated by slow progress, this post is for you. I hope it gives you a sense of grounding, power, and clarity for the road ahead.
Key Takeaways
• If it is outside your control, it is not worth the time and energy you are giving it
• You have more control than you think, and extreme ownership can change everything
• The work has to get done regardless of how you feel about it
• Your mindset is one of your strongest business assets
• Avoidance feels safe in the moment but creates more pain in the long run
