Today we’re going to talk today about a simple, first step to scaling which is small group coaching. My guest is Brynn Barale who empowers breast cancer survivors to lose weight without dieting so they can live a kick ass life after cancer. Last year, Brynn launched her first power group, which is the way we describe small groups inside The Hive. While Brynn loved working with her small group, she realized that she needs a retention plan to enroll her members into the next offer - whether that offer is to continue in the group or move into a different container. So, Brynn and I got to work designing the shape of her group coaching container and outlining a plan to invite current clients, power group members and even former clients into it. This was one of those coaching conversations where the client leaves feeling so enlivened and clear about their vision that they’re moved to tears. I love coaching sessions like this because they show us when we’re all aligned. Let me highlight the steps Brynn and I took to turn her dream of a group coaching program into a clear vision she can act on. Step One: Understand what your clients need. Step Two: Build your program around your client’s feedback understanding what your own boundaries might be. Step Three: Remember that less is more. People join a community to experience belonging more than anything else. Step Four: Invite folks into your program. This can be a full blown launch, or it could be as simple as personally inviting a handful of current or former clients to get the ball rolling. Okay, now that you’ve heard the high level overview, let’s get into the nitty gritty of designing a smart, simple and aligned retention program to serve your clients long term. Timestamps & Key Topics [04:14] What Brynn wants coaching around [06:03] How to prepare clients for the “what’s next” conversation [07:18] Renewing the program without additional content creation [09:34] Importance of community and support using a survey [11:35] Brainstorming the shape of the follow-up program [13:53] The importance of community building and self-nurturing experiences [16:00] Online gathering spaces and communication platforms to use [17:55] Aligning program design with survey feedback [20:00] Potential for in-person retreats [21:14] Inviting previous power group members to join [23:49] Use of a survey to reach out to previous clients [26:15] Naming the program and setting membership terms [31:21] Final thoughts CONNECT WITH BRYNN: INSTAGRAM: @yourkickasslifeaftercancer WEBSITE: www.CoachBrynnB.com

Follow me at https://instagram.com/dallastravers Today’s episode tackles an important question. Can you really, actually, truly build a business you really love? Building a business requires hard work and anybody saying otherwise is not giving you the full picture. Our guest Tara Rhodes came into today’s episode wondering what happens when you realize that the business you’re building isn’t the business you want anymore. Tara is committed to helping quiet rebels who feel stuck in the middle be willing to look at their stuff so they can figure out who they want to be in the world. And over the last year and a bit, Tara has realized that a traditional coaching model isn’t the model for her anymore. So, the two of us had to rethink what it means to build a business you really love. And here’s the cool part…in the beginning, Tara really did not think that she could create a business model that lights her up while still being profitable. But when we tapped into the experience she wants to have inside her business and designed a model from that place, she began to really believe that it is possible to build a business she loves. We started by simply asking the question “what is it you truly love?” And that opened the doors to a whole new vision for Tara and her business. The end result? No more coaching. Instead, Tara plans to launch a podcast to build a subscription community that feels a lot like summer camp. You’ll understand why as you listen in. Key Takeaways 1. Follow Your Passion 2. Innovative Revenue Models 3. Lean Into What You Love 4. Explore Creative Revenue Models 5.
