Coaches don't quit because they are bad at coaching. So why do so many talented coaches quit?
In this episode of C2C – Coach to Coach Central, I sit down with Tim Brownson (The Fully Booked Coach) for a brutally honest conversation about the realities of building a coaching business. If you’ve ever wondered why the majority of coaches quit before year 3, this episode is your wake-up call. Coaching isn’t the problem — business is.
