How To Thrive In A Challenging Market

COLIN BOYD
About this episode

When the market feels shaky, most coaches and course creators do one of two things:

Panic.
Or pause everything.

But neither one actually helps you grow.

In this episode of the Expert Edge, Colin breaks down three practical, battle-tested strategies that will help you stay clear, confident, and profitable—even when the economy’s wobbly and your launch starts looking like a ghost town.

You’ll learn:

  • Why your beliefs about the market might be costing you more than the market itself.

  • How to elevate your audience and attract higher-level clients (even now).

  • The real reason your offer isn’t converting—and how to make it actually irresistible.

This episode isn’t about fear tactics or false hype. It’s about leading yourself (and your business) wisely, especially when things feel uncertain.

If you’ve been feeling stuck, spinning, or low-key stressed—this episode will give you the reset you didn’t know you needed.
