Some days, there are just no words to express what we’re now seeing in our world. It’s shocking. It’s scary. And it’s happening. And it’s causing far too many of us to stay quiet when in fact we should be speaking, sharing, discussing, and connecting as we are meant to! Look we’ve been kept away from each other for close to a year. We were told that our fellow humans could kill us if they were to breathe on us. They locked us in our homes, shut down our businesses. People all around us suffered and continue to suffer. Now they are telling us what we can and cannot say, what we are allowed to believe, and what we can post online on any site at any time. Never in my life would I have imagined that our freedom of speech rights would be trampled as they are now. This is no longer the America I grew up in and I’m not at all happy at what might happen going forward. In this episode of Coach’s Corner, I encourage you to reach out and keep in touch as more and more of my friends are being shut down wholesale on social media. Let’s keep in touch: robert@ultimatewealth.com

Are we about to come up to the tipping point? Sometimes I think I’d love to go back in time to January of 2020… because it was much easier then as compared to what we’re living through now. Yes, I know that would put us right back at the very start of all the madness. So where are we now? What can we expect in the coming days? While I wish I had a crystal ball and could tell you what to expect, I don’t. What I do know is how life has cycles and I know what I can feel, what I see in those around me, and in many cases, I’m feeling much the same way too. I do know the tipping point is coming and it appears we are getting closer and closer to each and every day. What will happen next? Stay tuned.

When you are coach, you are also, by default, a leader. Your clients, your friends, your family look to you for answers. After all, a coach is that person you turn to when you need a little guidance and direction. Right now, this is more important than ever since everything in society seems to be turned upside-down! In this episode, I share some of the things that I do to stay informed and on top of things in a way where I am able to see all sides and form an opinion based on a more complete picture. Gone are the days when a single source of media will suffice. You clients are relying on you to be informed, to be the one with answers and to help guide them through the rough spots. That is the essence of our work as coaches.

Happy New Year! Now, once the celebrations are over, where will YOU be looking for opportunities in the New Year? Whenever there is mass chaos, there are also budding new opportunities that show up that would not otherwise be possible. The trick here is to look away from the fear and instead focus on the new opportunities that are already cropping up all around us! Now if you’re anything like me, you want to be a leader. You want people to look to you for answers, for direction, and for confidence. Well, you’re in luck! Because of everything that has happened in 2020, there are new opportunities for you if you are willing to take a stand and step up! I’m sure you have what it takes.. now will you step into your power in this New Year? That’s entirely up to you!

As we look to close out this year and start a fresh New Year, you may be asking yourself just where the opportunities are going to be. Whenever there is chaos, and we are seeing a lot of chaos right now, things shift and change. What was will no longer be. What will be is where you want to be putting your focus and energy now! Here’s the thing about chaos, it will either break you or make you and there is little chance you will be unaffected. In this episode, I share some things you should be paying attention to right now and into the New Year. The path is not very clear yet, but there are plenty of clues about where to look. Enjoy!

Looking back over this past year, so much has changed. So many things we did on autopilot, are different. How many of our daily habits have been shifted, ended, or changed? So where do we go next? Where should you be putting your energy, your focus, and where are the opportunities going to be as we turn the page on a New Year? That is what you will find out in this episode of Coach’s Corner!

On any given day, you could say that you have no idea what may be coming next. Yet, we don’t often think much about it and we just find a way to keep moving forward. OK, so what do you do when there is an unusual amount on uncertainty ahead? Well, staying in fear is certainly not the answer! As entrepreneurs and coaches, we know better. We know the answer to most any question starts with our ability to stay strong, positive, and ready. Listen or watch this episode to find out how to get back on track and get back to feeling strong and confident again!

I get it, things are very uncertain right now. And as a business owner and coach, when you can’t see what’s coming up next, it can be very unsettling.  You’re not alone if you’re feeling this way too! In fact, most of my clients are feeling a little less than confident right now with the combination of a virus and election chaos running the tables on us all right now.  So what do you do now? Well, that’s a great question and one I answer in this episode of Coach’s Corner. 

Yes, things remain out of control on so many fronts right now. And with it all there are opportunities to be found, if you’re willing to look for them.  Listen, I know it’s not easy. I know uncertainty can be scary. It’s stopping so many of us from living our lives full out. And there is a lot of pressure that would have us simply sit down and shut up! But, we’re not like that. We find a way. No matter how rough things get, we dig in, we get stronger, and we find the way forward. There is always a way forward! In this episode, I want to show you something you can do if you have a message you want to share. The technology is there for us to use and we need to take full advantage of it starting right now!  

Right now, things are a little crazy in our society. Well, that may be an understatement! So how do you make sense of it all? How do you navigate it all? How do you know what to believe, or who's telling the truth?  It's in these uncertain times that you need something to help you find your truth. In this episode, I give you my strategy for navigating the madness with a simple, yet very powerful way to make sense of it all.  In the end, I believe we will be just fine... it's just going to be a little rocky getting there.

How to get clients on demand So often I meet coaches who are absolutely brilliant at what they do. They are well trained. They hear what's not being said. They help their clients solve life-long issues in minutes... and yet, with all of this, they struggle to bring in enough clients to turn their skills into a full-time occupation. What it if didn't have to be that way? What if there were a way to attract new clients on demand so that your passion for coaching could also give you the lifestyle you really want? In this episode, I speak with Russ Ruffino, a man who has made it his career to help coaches get clients on demand.

Most of what we have been taught about success over the course of our lives has been wrong. How do I know? Do you know people who have worked really hard all their lives yet have little to show for it? Do you also know people who don't seem to work very hard, have little education, and yet seem to have life role out before them like a red carpet? What's the difference? Why do some people seem to hit home runs all day long while others seem to continue to struggle? There is an answer to this! And it's NOT what you might think! On this episode, I have a very special in-studio guest with me, Diane Forster, who shares her strategies for attracting more success with less struggle.  Diane has been helping her clients lead better lives for years and she has a gift for you at https://www.DianeForster.com/3tips Watch this episode and learn some unconventional ways to become more successful now!

Mistakes coaches make As a coach, there is something that you must be aware of in order to attract and continue to attract new clients. Yet, many coaches simply have no idea that this is important and often ignore it at their own peril.  I'd like to help you correct this mistake, because the odds are you're making it too!  So what is this blooper? Why does it make such a difference? And how can you avoid it so that it does not adversely affect your business? That is the topic of this episode of Coach's Corner!  See past episodes here. 

The question is how do you get coaching clients fast? How to do build your coaching business without having to wait years to find enough clients? How do you fill your coaching programs with ease? Maybe the better question is how do you attract coaching clients to you instead of chasing after them? I began my coaching career in 1995, and what I quickly learned was that getting new clients really wasn't that hard. In fact, I learned how to grow my coaching business quickly! Many of the things I learned early on, I still use to this day! If you would like to speak with me about building your coaching business, using the same strategies I teach my coaches, I invite you to book a quick call with me here:To see past episodes, click here.  

With all the tools we have at our fingertips today, it's never been easier to build a coaching business - but that doesn't mean that some coaches still struggle to build their coaching businesses! When I began coaching back in 1995, e-mail was hardly used, web sites were the domain of the few, and social media consisted of chat rooms on America Online! To get clients, you either had to show up and speak in person, use direct mail, or wait patiently for referrals! Today, we have 24/7 access to social media and the ability to easily reach out to the kinds of people we most want to work with - often without having to spend a dime to do it! The landscape has changed and I believe that it's easier today to build your coaching business than at any time in the history of coaching! In this episode of Coach's Corner, I share some of my ideas on this and how to get going on building your coaching business!

This may be a little bit of a rant, but I think it's important to share it with you! There are many people today who are coaches and many more who want to become coaches. But, not all coaches are created equally. Some have little to no formal training, while others have years of training and have coached thousands of people.  In this business, you want to be the best coach you can be. You want to keep improving your skills and you want to be living what you preach so that your life becomes a living example of what's possible.  And, to be honest, the world needs more skilled coaches more now than ever! Depression is at an all-time high, driven by a combination of social media and news media.  As coaches, it's our work to help reverse this trend and get our clients back on track. In this episode of Coach's Corner, it's a topic I share my thoughts on and much more too!
