Entrepreneurs usually prefer to fly solo and consider themselves as self-sufficient. But it does get lonely this way at times. Every genuine woman entrepreneur needs advice and opinion, an alternative perspective, encouragement, and even pep talk. As more and more women are starting their own businesses, they are looking for ways to learn new skills, increase their potential, and improve their business and life. Here are 5 ways a coach can help you and your business:
Smoothens the Transition
When an entrepreneur is leaving behind the cushion of a secure job and starting a business, it can be incredibly terrifying and unnerving to go through a radical change like this all alone. You may have no idea what’s next. Self-doubt, double-mindedness, frustration, and self-esteem issues are frequently experienced at such a stage and lead to cold feet, procrastination, failure to launch, or quitting midway. A coach also helps in facilitating this transition process through ironing out fears, realistically setting goals, and helping in goal achievement.
Facilitates Self-Discovery
Coaching helps you discover the one thing you were born to do and to help you do it better than others. A coach can help you discover and nurture your natural talent, gifts, recognize your unique strengths, set a vision, and achieve goals. He or she can help you set a path for yourself and business and follow it in a disciplined manner. Not just newbies, a coach can help a woman entrepreneur with an established business in figuring out new directions and reaching the next level.
Nurtures Mindset Change
Progress cannot be achieved through fixed mindsets. Sometimes you need a new level of thought, awareness, and approach to tackle an old problem, and a coach helps you do exactly that through perpetuating a mindset change. He helps you achieve a breakthrough. He helps you replace you limited mindset with a positive, liberating, and growth-oriented mindset: scarcity with abundance, a consciousness of lack of resources with sharing, networking and collaboration, inadequacy with self-sufficiency, etc.
Recognizes Your Barriers and Self-Saboteurs
Most of us keep working hard to improve our business, money issues, and our relationships but we encounter failure in all areas due to our blind spots. The right kind of coach can help you discover the inner energy blocks, old beliefs, guilt, shame, realized and unrealized fears running in your background and stalling your personal and professional progress. These are the things all of us are not able to discover and fix on our own; even if we able to do so, it takes a lot of time. A coach diminishes your learning curve. The coaching helps you pursue your dreams of financial independence in a guilt-free way.
Makes You Accountable
We all want success but self-destructive habits, indecision, lack of commitment stall us from being productive and successful. When there is no boss around to hold us accountable for our results, it’s natural to let ourselves go and get digressed from our goals. A coach helps us set a clear path, lays down milestones, and makes us accountable to achieve them. He also gives clients the skills, methods, and systems to improve performance and productivity.
I am Luci McMonagle, a Miracles Abundance coach. Through powerful questions, self-analysis, and reflection, tough love, humor, face reading, I help women entrepreneurs figure out what they truly want, what works best for them, and ways they can get it. Just like all clients are different; all coaches are not alike. They work in different paradigms. For any coaching experience to be successful and fruitful, there needs to be an absolute right match between the client’s needs and the coach’s offering. There needs to be a level of comfort and then trust. I offer a free session to prospective clients so as to let them experience my coaching style and determine whether there is a good fit between them or not. I believe that magic and miracles truly happen when there is that right fit.
