After losing momentum during the pandemic, and now being ready to step back into coaching in a more authentic, focused way, she asks, when you’re rebuilding, how do you find the confidence to show up, ignore all the shiny object advice that can so easily take you off track, and build around who you really are and what you need and want to offer? When it comes to building a coaching practice Joy asks, how do you put yourself out there in an authentic way? And when building a business in a saturated market, how do you avoid the comparison trap and find the courage to stay in your lane and own your unique talent and offering?
