In 2023, I had just joined a $4,500 mentorship program with an amazing coach and was SO excited to finally step into the world of coaching and course creation.
Like most beginners, I jumped straight onto Instagram (because that's supposed to be the "best" platform for coaches, right?)
Well, I posted 4x a week.
I did dancing Reels (yes, even the embarrassing ones 😅).
I showed up in Stories almost every day — even on weekends.
As you can guess, it was extremely exhausting and I was burnt out.
The worst part? After 2 months of showing up consistently, here’s what I had to show for it:
👉 Just 2 leads
👉 0 sales
I was disheartened. I even started thinking: “Maybe this isn’t for me. Maybe I should just stick to working for someone else.
