Today’s guest is a systems expert helping coaches get over the tedious task of running their business and focus on what they love – the actual coaching of amazing clients! She has worked with thousands of startup coaches over the last sixteen years, sharing the value of strong business systems and processes. Her goal is for coaches to turn their passion into profits. To make that possible, she created The Coaches Console, software that leverages the systems she created in her own coaching business — for branding, list-building, marketing, enrolling clients, creating amazing client experiences, and more. All of that is integrated into one cohesive platform. She and her team blend coaching with training to help you create a clear and realistic path to sustainable results. Please join me in welcoming Melinda Cohan.

In this episode we discuss:

• her thoughts on leadership: “My first experience with leadership was servant leadership, giving and serving others, providing value and serving others.”
• how growing up with a preacher for a dad and teacher for a mom helped shape the way she grew up.
• how she was inclusive in high school with her peers being both a cheerleader and in the band.
• her initial life goal of being an interior designer and how that evolved into coaching.
• how she learned to listen to her instincts prior to starting her coaching business.
• her beginnings in coaching networking in a coffee shop.
• when she experienced an AHA moment which started her business.
• how she is bringing her program “The Coaches Console” to help the coaches at Mirasee after a recent partnership with Danny Iny.
