Hello from the Colorado mountains!

Hello from the Colorado mountains!

by kristinh | Aug 10, 2016 | Uncategorized

I spent an amazing weekend playing in the Colorado mountains. My cousin was in town visiting from DC so we were running around trying to get in as much fun as we could while she was here. This included the Denver Art Museum, a day exploring and hiking in Boulder and a...

I spent last week hanging out in Mill Valley…the I spent last week hanging out in Mill Valley…the birth place of my post college career. 

After I graduated from chiropractic school, I found an amazing opportunity to work at a clinic in Mill Valley, practicing nutrition and chiropractic.

The opportunity fell flat so I found another position working in a clinic in Florida.

This position fell even flatter…in fact, I HATED going into work.

I was quickly getting the message that I was not cut out for being an employee…being told what to do, how to practice, what hours to work, when I could take vacation, co-workers that I didn’t like being around…

So I quit and started my own business…first a brick and mortar chiropractic and functional medicine practice…and then I transitioned to a health coaching business. 

I realized that I had been following a path to success in my career that was not at all aligned with the life I wanted to be living.

I wanted FREEDOM.

Freedom to be my own boss, practice in a way that felt truly aligned with what I believed in, set my own hours and work from anywhere.

I knew nothing about starting an online business and marketing so I hired mentors and learned everything I could.

And slowly I started to see my vision for my business and life become my reality.

At this point, I’ve had my coaching business for almost a decade and have helped hundreds of other coaches start and build successful businesses! 

I’ve learned so much along the way about what really works and what doesn’t when it comes to getting consistent clients and income in your business.

I want to share all that I’ve learned so that you can avoid many of the mistakes I’ve made along the way and take the quicker and easier path to success.

I’m holding a free workshop tomorrow where I’m sharing the 6 steps to consistent clients…even as an introvert. 

And the big focus in on building your business is a way that is SIMPLE and AUTHENTIC…so important so that you actually enjoy your business which is key for lasting success. 

These are the same steps you follow whether you are just getting started or are looking grow your business and make a bigger income.

In September I spent a few weeks in Greece. Our f In September I spent a few weeks in Greece.

Our first stop was Sifnos, a small island with a very small population.

I was in love.

Sifnos had an amazing laid back energy that felt so right.

Things are simple.

The crystal blue waters and hilly landscapes breathed tranquility.

The food was fresh, grown on the island and delicious.

The people were friendly and I admired the ease and simplicity with which they lived their lives.

Before we left on this trip, I had this feeling that I was going to have a huge breakthrough while we were there…something that would perhaps change my life and business moving forward.

I waited for this epiphany to happen.

I heard this voice in my head over and over again saying ‘be here now’

Hmmm…that can’t be it.

Way too simple.

What am I supposed to do with that?

But I felt it. 

This need to escape from the noise and the distractions that are such a huge part of our every day life.

This largely comes through our connection to the world through the internet and social media.

We are constantly taking in so much information about what everyone else is up to in their lives.

Does it matter?

I know it doesn’t. 

All that matters is that I’m living in alignment with my vision for MY LIFE.

The first thing I did was take off my iWatch…I haven’t worn it since.

The next thing was take a break from posting on social media.

Then I set a timer to limit my time on social media each day.

I’m incredibly grateful for the internet and social media because they have been instrumental in connecting with amazing like-minded people all over the world, which has allowed me to build my coaching business.

BUT I feel a need to reevaluate how I’m using it…to ensure that it is serving ME and my audience.

And this is something I do with all of my clients...find marketing that they ENJOY and that makes their lives better.

Each of us is different and the marketing that works best for us is individualized based on our skills, what we enjoy doing, who our ideal client is and what connections we already have.

So when it comes to marketing choose what is going to allow you to 'be here now' while building your business.

This makes the path ✨
