Issue 1 - First Steps in Business Coaching

Super excited to launch this newsletter where I’ll let you in on all my secrets about business coaching.

I think business coaching is one of the most rewarding careers you can have. The amount of pride I, and my fellow Brainiact business coaches, have every time we hear about our clients’ wins is huge. Trust me, it’s incredibly fulfilling.

If you’re wondering what the big deal is about business coaching and how you can make a lucrative, successful career out of it, I’ll be releasing a newsletter edition every two weeks, each covering a different topic to answer all your questions.

By the end of it, you’ll be ready to start your career as a business coach!

Put simply, business coaching is all about helping entrepreneurs and business leaders grow and succeed.

It’s a mix of giving advice, setting goals, and pushing for better results. It's also a lot more than that. It’s about getting to know the people you're helping and improving their personal and professional lives.

The corporate world can be tough. After years of climbing the ladder, it’s easy to feel worn out and disconnected from the real impact you could be having. If you’re looking for truly inspiring work, where you can really see the difference you’re making to the world, then business coaching might be it for you.

Or maybe you’re an entrepreneur looking for your next big business challenge or you want to give back to the community. As a business coach, you can use your expertise to help others reach your level.

If you love making real change, enjoy solving problems, and get a kick out of seeing others succeed, business coaching could be your calling. It’s not just about business strategies; it’s about you having the power to bring personal growth and transformation – to both you and your clients.

I grew up in Western Sydney, Campbelltown to be exact, in a family where brains and resilience were common traits. My path to coaching wasn’t straight though. I spent years in business-to-business executive roles where I started realising I wanted something more. I could be using my knowledge and passion for business for something better.

I knew there were A LOT of small businesses in Australia (2.5 million to be exact) and I knew they lacked support. In 2021, I founded Brainiact to help small and medium-sized businesses thrive. Two months later, a wave of COVID-19 hit, bringing new challenges for all businesses (including my own). It was a big risk, but it brought me here, ready to share everything with you.

Becoming a business coach also meant I could spend more time with my family, something I missed from my parents growing up. It was my chance to use my 20 years of business experience in a way that helps others and betters the community, while also being there for my own family.

Take a moment now: Are you happy in your job? Does it give you the fulfilment and impact you crave? If you’re feeling restless, maybe it’s time to think about switching to business coaching.

As we go through this newsletter series, I’ll share everything –no holding back. I’m here to give you all the info you need to become a successful business coach.
