S9E8 - Career Change Stories: 3 Coaches Share Their Experience

School of Embodied Arts Podcast with Jenna Ward

What does it take to have a mature, financially stable coaching business?

I asked three past graduates of our program, all of whom have transitioned careers and developed signature bodies of work in the embodied arts.

Preeti Matoo from Well Adorned, Christina Lane a dating and relationship specialist & Mary Lofgren from the School of Sensual Living join us for this delicious conversation.

If you’re wondering how long it takes to develop a stable income, how to navigate your way forward when you seem to be taking the long road, if entrepreneurship feels daunting or you’re worried you’ll just never get there, this is a wonderful conversation to join.

In this podcast, we explore

• Careers before Coaching - Past careers & the call to pursue your passions. This educator, fashion executive & esthetician chatted about ‘what my body was calling me towards’ and taking forever to figure it out
• Leaving ‘impressive’ & ‘serious professionals’ to pursue something as crazy as coaching
• Financial security & maturity - We hear three stories about establishing financial security as a coach & entrepreneur, and many of the lessons along the way
• The nature of entrepreneurship & 3 big lessons - including “I’m not my business” and how these coaches hold their relationship with their work to avoid feeling burnt out or burdensome.
