169 | From sporadic sessions to secure, high-value clients - Kiran Goodman

Joanna shares a powerful conversation with Kiran, a coach who went from sporadic one-off sessions and self-doubt to securing corporate contracts, high-value coaching clients, and building real confidence in her business. If you’ve qualified as a coach but still feel unclear about how to build a steady business, this conversation will help you feel both understood and hopeful. It’s especially valuable if you’re tired of trying to piece everything together alone and want to hear what sustainable progress actually looks like.
