We sit down with fellow team membeat the REALIFE Process® Rachel O’Connell to demystify the essentials: a simple website, a clear lead magnet, and a short email nurture.

A discernment filter: what’s life-giving vs life-draining for you as a coach

This week I go solo to reflect on my 10-week sabbatical and how it reshaped 2025 and even 2026. I share four core lessons, creating rhythms that make rest possible, trusting your team and processes, discerning rather than just deciding, and refusing to journey alone. I open up about falling back in love with ordinary life on the family farm and the clarity that followed. If you are feeling the tug to pause, this conversation will give you language, courage, and a practical path.

This week on Realife Conversations for Christian Coaches, Teresa McCloy and co-host Erica Vinson sit down with REALIFE Process Certified Coach Julie Loy, creator of the HTL (HEALthy Living) Planner. Julie shares how a season of overwhelm and a simple prayer, “Lord, help me,” led to a Spirit-prompted idea for a spirit, soul, and body planner and a thriving community that practices intentional living with Christ at the center. We talk through the power of frameworks, 90-day resets, grace over pressure, and why community and accountability companions make all the difference.
In this conversation, you’ll hear about:

In Part Two of our pricing mini-series, We get practical about confidence and consistency. If you’ve ever stumbled over your rates, over-explained your packages, or dropped your price in the moment (hello, discount spiral), this conversation is for you. We cover simple ways to practice saying your price, how to pre-frame discovery calls, what to do when an offer doesn’t “go,” and why timing, audience, and availability often matter more than price. You’ll also hear when negotiation makes sense, creative ways to price evenings/weekends, and a healthy rhythm for raising rates as you grow. Leave with one action to strengthen your pricing this quarter—and an invitation to keep the conversation going in our private REALIFE Community.

On today’s episode of Realife Conversations for Christian Coaches, we’re diving into one of the most common (and sometimes uncomfortable) topics for coaches—how to price your coaching with confidence.
This is Part One of a two-part conversation where we will share their real-life experiences and stories about what it looked like to set prices in the early days, how to move from scarcity to abundance, and why aligning your pricing with your faith and your season matters.
You’ll hear about Teresa’s first paid session (with Erica as her very first client!), how the “scarcity vs. abundance” mindset shows up for Christian coaches, and practical frameworks for setting your rate with integrity and peace.
We’re keeping this conversation real and relatable—because pricing isn’t just about numbers, it’s about stewardship, confidence, and consistency in the work God’s called you to do.
This is Part One, and next week we’ll be back with Part Two, where we’ll talk about pitfalls to avoid, undercharging, and how to reset when you’ve outgrown your current model.

Hey friends—Teresa & Erica welcome our friend Albert Pellissier , author of What’s On Your Back Burner? Using Dormant Desire to Relight Your Fire. If you’ve ever carried a project, goal, or calling for years (maybe decades!) and it just won’t leave you alone, this one’s for you.
Albert shares a simple but powerful process to surface what’s really been holding you back (spoiler: it’s usually not time or money), and how naming those deeper fears out loud begins to loosen their grip. We talk inner-child narratives, honest awareness, and the courage to take micro-actions that move your calling from the back burner to a gentle, sustainable simmer.

Hello friends! Teresa here with my co-host, Erica Vinson. Today we’re kicking off a recurring “Lifelong Learner” series—quick, honest chats about resources shaping us as coaches. First up is a classic in the coaching world: The Prosperous Coach by Steve Chandler & Rich Litvin.
A quick note: at the time of our recording, the book happened to be discounted online—prices change, so check current listings. More importantly, we don’t agree with everything in the book (no book is the Gospel 🙃), but there are some ideas worth wrestling with—especially for Christian coaches who want to serve deeply and also build a sustainable practice.
Here are the 3 big takeaways we unpack together:
If you’re sensing it’s time to strengthen your being so your doing flows with clarity and peace, we’d love to journey with you.
Question for you: What’s one belief about finding clients or pricing your coaching that you want to revisit with God this week?
Scripture to sit with: “Let your light shine before others…” (Matthew 5:16)

We look at what Scripture says about time (hello, Psalm 90:12), name the mindset traps that speed us up, and walk through a practical, grace-filled way to steward your time so your business grows—and your soul can breathe.
We Talk About
The difference between busyness and fruitfulness
Scripture + Quotes
Psalm 90:12 — “Teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom.”
“Busyness is not the same as fruitfulness.”

In this episode of Realife Conversations for Christian Coaches, We discuss the tools you might use for building a sustainable coaching business. We will explore three main categories of tools: Assessment tools, Framework Tools, and Reflection Tools. Each category helps coaches understand their clients better, structure their sessions effectively, and provide meaningful reflections. We’ll share our own personal experiences and practical advice on integrating tools like the Enneagram, CliftonStrengths, DISC, and the REALIFE Process Framework and oneLife Maps into coaching practices. Additionally, they introduce their latest REALIFE Process Coach Certification Cohort™ starting in July 2025.
