"I landed my first paid coaching client in Week 16, just before graduation"

A few months ago, I found myself lost after leaving a major real estate collaboration. Despite multiple attempts to establish my own business as a real estate personal shopper, I kept getting stuck—held back by doubt and limiting beliefs.
Then, an Instagram ad changed everything. I wasn’t looking to become a coach; I just needed help to move forward. Without hesitation, I joined the Mindvalley coaching certification program, seeking clarity for my business. But what I found was far greater—I broke through my fears, gained confidence, and discovered an unexpected passion for coaching others.
Through the program, I not only built confidence but also gained practical tools to structure my business, refine my services, and attract the right clients. One of my biggest transformations was not just overcoming my fear of speaking in front of groups of strangers but also developing a clear business strategy and confidence in my unique value. I refined my niche and built a structured approach to attracting and retaining clients. I also learned to set clear boundaries and pricing for my services, ensuring my business was both sustainable and fulfilling. I gained valuable insights into mindset shifts, goal-setting, and business strategy, which allowed me to finally get my business up and running successfully.
The breakthrough came when I landed my first paid coaching client in Week 16, just before graduation. What started as a journey for personal growth became a catalyst for my professional success. Now, as a certified life coach and real estate personal shopper, I feel empowered, clear, and excited for what’s ahead—helping others navigate career transitions and entrepreneurship while continuing to grow my own thriving business.
What started as a personal journey became a calling, and this is just the beginning.
Thank you Mindvalley ❤️
