How to Know When it’s time to Pivot Your Coaching Business

Building a coaching business isn’t a straight line—it’s a living, breathing experiment. In this conversation with CLCC graduates Kim Romain and Louise Neil, we talk about pivoting your coaching business with courage, collaboration, and self-trust.

Kim and Louise share how they went from co-hosting their first group podcast to creating Empowered and Embodied, a show born from brave conversations about what wasn’t working anymore. Together, we unpack how to know when it’s time to shift direction, why joy is a legitimate metric for success, and what it takes to release sunk-cost bias and start again.

If you’ve ever questioned whether you’re “doing it wrong” because you want to pivot your coaching business in a new direction, this is your invitation to see your coaching business as an evolution. This episode will help you see change as part of mastery—not a mistake.
