Summary

The hardest thing to rebuild is trust. 

For many clients, I am not the first coach they’ve had. 

And more often than I’d like, I’ve heard other coaches and programs described as, “feeling like a waste of money,” or that the program was, “too big and you never got time with the lead coach.”   

They have lost trust in the coaching community–and rightfully so. 

Thankfully, not all coaches are the same. 

Today, Elizabeth Cook, my co-coach in $ix Figures Lab, joins me as we talk about what to look for in a coaching program, the questions you should ask when looking at a new program, and how our $ix Figures Lab program differs from most other programs on the market.

we've been hearing and feedback as we start working with people that we're usually not the first

0:32.7

program people have joined. And so sometimes they bring with them some them some hurt from past experiences where they've

0:39.4

really been burned in another coaching program. It's very frustrating to me because I feel like

0:47.0

I work so hard to deliver on our promise and we've worked to create a program that meets people where they're at and

takes them on a journey to the next level in their business. And it's very common,

1:03.3

especially we were, we were just chatting before we hit record this last group of people

1:07.5

that joined us. There was so much hesitancy. They had all been in other programs,

1:13.9

multiple programs, and had been, I think the best way is burned. Here's some things I heard them say.

1:20.6

They felt that they had wasted their money. And that is, that just is so hard when you feel

1:26.6

that you have wasted your money.

1:28.4

It goes into so many messages we've had from childhood about not doing that.

1:32.3

And so there's a, there's some shame in I, I spent all this money and it was precious to me
