175 Accelerating Your Coaching Business In 2025

As the calendar turns to a fresh year, we bring experience, energy, and experience to guide listeners through accelerating their coaching business in 2025. This episode is more than a blueprint—it’s a call to action.

The conversation opens with a relatable moment: the energy of a new year—that “turning of the page” feeling. Whether you’re starting fresh or aiming to level up, we highlight the power of intentionality and clear planning. For them, 2025 isn’t just another year; it’s a space to decide and declare, “This will be my most successful year yet.”

Reflecting on our own journey, we dive into the importance of focus. Rather than overwhelming yourself with endless goals, pick one big lever—a single, impactful action that will drive your business forward. For many, that might mean launching a group coaching program, developing a niche, or finally training to become a coach. We share stories of how bold, intentional decisions shaped our business, like the creation of our Group & Team Coaching and Neurodivergent Inclusive Practitioner programs, major milestones we're proud to launch in 2025.

We also share an often-overlooked truth: success isn’t just about hitting numbers. Jo recounts the relief of releasing attachment to specific outcomes, choosing instead to celebrate every small win—“We did it. We launched it.” They remind listeners to embrace a learner’s mindset, treating setbacks as opportunities to refine, adapt, and try again.

Another powerful theme? Sustainability in business. Zoe shares candid moments of creative fatigue after writing extensive courses and how six months of recovery renewed her energy for the next big project. Whether you’re navigating creative burnout, pricing doubts, or imposter syndrome, we emphasise that the journey requires endurance. Business is a marathon, not a sprint, and nurturing your energy—through clear plans, supportive environments, and community—is key to staying the course.

The episode wraps up with a practical nudge: “What do you need to accelerate your business this year?” Whether it’s refining your niche, raising prices, or building a consistent pipeline of clients, we invite you to step into 2025 with clarity, confidence, and an entrepreneurial mindset.

Key Lessons Learned:

1. Decide to be successful: Intentionality shifts energy. Declare your goals for 2025 and believe in your ability to figure it out.
2. Pick one impactful focus: Choose a single, high-leverage action—like launching a program or niching down—to build momentum.
3. Detach from outcomes: Celebrate the effort and process of creating something new, not just the results.
4. Be a learner, not a perfectionist: Use setbacks as information to refine and improve your strategies.
5. Sustain your energy: Creative and business growth requires endurance—plan for rest, reflection, and recovery.
6. Think like a CEO: Shift from “just being a coach” to embracing the entrepreneurial mindset needed to grow a business.

• Approach 2025 with clarity, focus, and the mindset of possibility.
• Launch that program, create that niche, or train as a coach—whatever aligns with your next stage of growth.
• Plan your year strategically: set early wins, medium-sized goals, and long-term projects.
