What if the thing holding your business back isn’t strategy, but the fact that you’re trying to build it alone? Whether you're bumping up against an income ceiling, drowning in ideas, or craving clarity in your next season, there are real signs that you’re ready for support in your business.

In this episode, we’re diving into the seven signs you might be ready to work with a business coach. I’m breaking down what to look for, how to know if it’s the right time, and the shifts that become possible when you stop trying to piece everything together yourself.

In this Episode:

• Why coaching is less about your revenue and more about your goals.
• The exact signs to look for if you're considering hiring a coach.
• How my clients are hitting five-figure months and sold-out sessions through strategic support.
