We’ve all been there – You’re new to something and you don’t exactly know best practices yet, so you make a lot of mistakes along the way…

The good thing though, is that if you’re willing to seek out some advice you can shortcut your way around most of the obstacles new coaches stumble over while wasting time, money, and energy…

That’s why on today’s Integrative #HealthCoachSuccess podcast 080 I’d like to share with you how to avoid the 8 major mistakes new health coaches make – Enjoy the show and let us know if you can think of any others!

SHOW HIGHLIGHTS & KEY TAKEAWAYS

  1. Realizing Where You’re At
    Too many coaches want to shortcut what it means to be a great coach… time-savers are fine, but there is no shortcut to being great at what you and and for whom you serve.

  2. Not Showing Up
    Everyday you get a chance to “market” yourself to new potential clients, as well as to those whom you are already helping… What have you done today?

  3. The Imposter Syndrome
    Do you feel like a fraud or that someone’s going to “find out” you don’t know as much as you feel you should in order to be what you consider a great health coach? It’s totally normal, but tune into the show and IHP Mastery for how to overcome this!
