• Is That a Client Prospect… or Someone Else’s Funnel?
    Jan 21 2026

    Today, we’re fixing something that’s been driving coaches nuts:

    All the spammy “opportunities” that show up in your inbox, DMs, comments… and inside Facebook groups.

    Because some of these posts look legit…
    But in reality, they’re just the beginning of somebody else’s funnel.

    So the real question is:
    How do you tell if something is legit… or if you’re about to get pitched?

    1. In this episode, I’ll walk you through:
    2. Why coaches get targeted so much online
    3. The open-ended questions to ask before you say yes
    4. How to check audience quality (so you don’t waste your time)
    5. What to research before you hop on a call
    6. How to stop feeling like you’re “missing out” if you don’t respond


    If you’re a new or newish life coach trying to get clients online and you feel bombarded by “opportunities”… this is for you.

  • #234: I broke my youtube channel (and here's how I'm fixing it)
    Jan 13 2026

    When I started my YouTube channel, I honestly had no idea what I was doing.

    I tried educational videos.
    I tried teaching.
    I tried interviews, podcast-style content, random topics…

    And somehow, my channel grew before my message was clear.

    That’s how you end up with subscribers and followers but hearing crickets.

    In this video, I’m sharing:

    what went wrong with my YouTube channel

    why hiring help too early made things messier

    and what I’m doing now to clean it up and realign the channel for 2026

    This video is for you if:

    you’re thinking about starting a YouTube channel but don’t know what to talk about

    you already have a channel and feel stuck or inconsistent

    you’re wondering if YouTube is even worth it for coaches

    It’s a behind-the-scenes confession— and maybe permission for you to stop overthinking what to do with yours.

    👇 Drop your case in the comments:

    Are you starting YouTube? Restarting? Or letting it sit because you don’t know what to do with it?

  • #233: How To Know Exactly Who You’re Meant To Coach(And Stop Attracting the Wrong Clients)
    Jan 6 2026

    Have you ever looked at your discovery calls and thought,
    “Why do the wrong people keep showing up?”

    Or maybe people book a call… and then disappear?

    In this episode, I’m breaking down how to know exactly who you’re meant to coach—and why creating content for everyone is one of the biggest reasons coaches struggle to attract clients.

    I’m sharing real lessons from my own journey, including:

    • Why my early content attracted all kinds of people—but not the right ones
    • The moment I realized I needed to be more intentional about who I wanted to work with
    • How your content should quietly pre‑sell the right clients before they ever book a call
    • Why niche clarity is allowed to evolve (and why that’s actually normal)
    • Three powerful questions to help you identify who you’re truly meant to coach


    📩 Want my Ideal Client worksheet?

    Email me at michelle@elevatelifecoaching.org, and I’ll send you the same worksheet I use with my private clients.


    💬 I’d also love to hear from you—are you creating content just to stay visible, or are you being intentional about who you’re calling in?

  • #232: The 90-Day Plan I Use Every Year to Grow My Coaching Business
    Dec 23 2025

    If you’ve ever kicked off January thinking, “Okay… now what?”—this episode is for you.

    Most coaches wait until late December (or January itself) to figure out what they’re offering, where they’re showing up, and how they’re going to make money in the new year.

    The problem?
    Your future clients don’t wait.

    They’re already out there—setting goals, looking for support, and deciding who they’re going to invest in before January even starts.

    In this episode, I’m walking you through the exact 90-day visibility and profit planning process I’ve used for the last seven years to go from feeling unsure day‑to‑day… to starting every year with clarity, confidence, and a real plan.

    I’m also sharing how I use my 90-Day Visibility & Profit Worksheet to reverse‑engineer my offers, content, and visibility—without being everywhere or doing all the things.

    In this episode, you’ll learn:

    • Why waiting until January actually puts you behind
    • How to set realistic profit goals—and reverse‑engineer them into action
    • Why choosing one focus platform builds momentum faster than chasing trends
    • How to turn your offer into content that builds trust before you sell

    🎁 Get the 90-Day Visibility & Profit Worksheet

    Want a copy of the exact worksheet I use?

    👉 Click here to join my email community.
    You’ll receive a welcome email—just hit reply with the word WORKSHEET, and I’ll send it straight to you.

    🤝 Want deeper support?

    If you want help mapping this out together, you can also book a 30‑minute strategy call with me. We’ll look at where you are now, what could work better, and what support makes the most sense for your coaching business.

  • #231: Instagram Content Tips For Life Coaches (2026 Algorithm Update)
    Dec 16 2025

    With AI doing more of the heavy lifting and the Instagram algorithm giving users more control over what they see, your dream clients can now literally tell the app, “Nope, don’t show me this kind of post again.”

    Which sounds great as a user.
    As a life coach trying to get clients? That hits differently.

    In this episode, I break down what the 2026 Instagram algorithm changes really mean for life coaches and how to create content that still gets seen, saves you from shouting into the void, and actually leads to paying clients.

    We will talk about:

    • How AI and the Reels algorithm decide what content gets pushed out
    • What high value content actually looks like for life coaches in 2026
    • Why vague messaging like “I help women feel more confident” is not enough anymore.

    Mentioned in this episode

    🎁 Free 7 Step Coaching Biz Roadmap
    Want help tightening up your message and turning your content into a client getting system?


    👉 Grab the free roadmap here


    It will walk you through the foundations you need so your content is not just “nice” but actually leads somewhere.


    📞 Interested in working together?

    After you grab the roadmap, you will have the option to book a strategy call with me.

    On that call, we will look at where your visibility is getting stuck, what you actually want your coaching business to do for you, and whether it makes sense to work together.


    If you enjoy this episode, hit follow, leave a quick review, or share it with another coach who is tired of feeling like the algorithm has them on mute.
