| 0:00.0 | What's up guys? Welcome to the flow state of mind podcast. Aaron and I here to talk about something |
| 0:04.7 | that I know Aaron gets a lot in her DMs. I've gotten this question, not as much as Aaron, but it's very common. |
| 0:10.0 | Like, am I qualified or it's a claim that I'm not quite qualified to pursue something I'm passionate about? |
| 0:15.6 | We're going to talk specifically around coaching. You are correct. And this is a question I get all of the time and not even so much |
| 0:21.7 | in a question. And sometimes it takes several back and forth DMs to uncover this. So I want to go |
| 0:27.1 | through a DM conversation today because this was like a big revelation for this person. |
| 0:33.2 | But let's give some background and context. So today we're answering like, how do you know if you're |
| 0:38.2 | qualified to be a coach? Yeah, yeah. We're going to dive into specifics, right? Like, what does it |
| 0:42.6 | mean to be quote unquote certified? What does at least how we interpret the law say? And what does that |

| 1:04.4 | She's young. She holds a 1500 person event called Pace to Be Brave. So started out in fitness coaching too. |
| 1:12.0 | Did she? Yeah. Yeah, I wasn't sure. Okay. Great. And, you know, that's someone you could look at. |
| 1:16.8 | And especially in the beginning when she's saying, I'm going to do this, someone you could look at |
| 1:20.6 | and say, who are you? What makes you qualified? And she always says the person who's qualified to do it is the one who's doing it. Yeah, because they're going to be |
| 1:28.8 | way more experience than the person who only seeks like certifications and things next to their |
| 1:33.9 | name, but they're not taking any action in helping people. So I'm going to tell you a couple |
| 1:36.8 | cool stories that's going to help kind of frame this. The first one I think is more interesting. |
| 1:40.8 | All right. So it comes from the book, Expert Secrets by Russell Brunson. And both of these examples are from Russell Brunson. And this is about Tony Robbins. So Tony Robbins, |
| 1:48.0 | when he first got started and started to pursue a path of wanting to change lives. He started out |
