Hey Reader,

In January, Boo-dog had a seizure. He recovered quickly, and we mostly forgot about it.

Two weeks ago, he had another one. Again, he recovered quickly, and he’s acting normal otherwise, so I made a note of it and told the husband we’d discuss it with the vet when Boo goes for his annual checkup this summer.

Seven days later, he had a third seizure. We decided this couldn’t wait until summer, so I called to book an appointment. They could see him the following day (Wednesday) at 2 PM.

Here’s the problem: Wednesdays are my coaching days. I have multiple calls booked starting at 10 AM and running right through 3 PM.

I immediately fired off a few emails letting my clients know what happened and asking to reschedule. Of course, everyone was gracious and understanding (dog lovers, all of them 🐶), and we were able to get Boo to the vet and on some medication.

I’m lucky in that I have very few private clients. Coaching is not my main source of income. If it were, though, this one event could have resulted in a cascade of shifted appointments and been much messier than it was.

But what if there’s a better way to serve many, many more clients in a 1:1, private coaching program without filling your calendar with appointments? What if you could meet with clients on YOUR schedule and let them connect with you on theirs?

​That’s what Angela Wills does, and honestly, I think it’s brilliant. She’s able to:

• Have an incredibly flexible schedule that allows her to work with clients, spend time with family, and pursue a bunch of fun hobbies.
• Work with clients all over the world, without concern about time zones. If you know me, you know this has been a struggle for me this spring, when everyone’s time changed but mine. 🤣
• Provide even more support for her clients, who never have to wait for a weekly or monthly call to get the answer they need.

I’ll be honest, I love coaching, but I’d love it more if it was just a bit more flexible. I think Angela’s Coaching Without Calls plan is the way to go, and I’m going to be looking at how I can revise my coaching program so it offers both me and my clients this kind of flexibility.

If you’re a coach or if you’d like to offer coaching but don’t want the time commitment, you should take a look at Angela’s training. It’s on sale for 50% off right now when you use promo code EARLYBIRD at checkout.

She’ll run this live on April 23, but when you register today, you’ll also get instant access to the previously recorded training, so you can get started right away.

​Start Coaching Without Calls today.

I’m going to work through it myself over the next few days. I can’t wait to see how I can improve and make my coaching programs more flexible for everyone.

To your success,
Cindy

P.S. Boo is doing fine on his meds while we’re waiting for the results of the blood work. His vet does not suspect anything more serious than “idiopathic epilepsy,” and says in most cases, that’s easily controlled with medication.

Here he is, hoping for a nibble from my lunch.
