How to invest in your coaching business when you’re used to putting yourself last
This episode is a celebration of what can happen when a woman stops building her life around everyone else and finally starts choosing herself, and how this can have a pivotal impact on her business growth.
Bunny brings Nikki Acosta, a licensed marriage and family therapist, relationship expert, and transformation coach, into the studio to talk about the woman she was when they first met, and the woman she has become after a year inside DEFY.
This episode is all about the mindset shifts she experienced in her first year of DEFY. And, trust me, she has quite an interesting story.
Nikki already knew how to build a business. She had successfully run multiple businesses and had a thriving therapy practice. What she didn’t know was how to build the coaching business she actually wanted, or how to stop operating from the belief that she simply had to keep doing more for everyone else.
Inside DEFY, that started to change. Nikki began making herself a non-negotiable, creating a business around the freedom she wanted, showing up more visibly, and learning to trust her own answers instead of constantly looking outside herself for them.
