Why Health Coaches Don't Follow Through (Even When They Know What to Do) Artwork

You Are the Magic You're Waiting For

You’re a coach on a mission to create a big beautiful impact in the lives of others while living your most authentic, fun and fulfilled life. You know you’re meant for big things but you may be feeling a bit stagnant in your business. You know you’re holding yourself back. Many of us fall into this trap. The trap of waiting…for things to change. For inspiration. For motivation. For clarity. For healing. I created this podcast to remind you that you’re the magic you’re waiting for. Now is your time. The key to making the big impact and living your best life is taking aligned action and showing up as your most authentic self. This means breaking the rules, doing things differently and radically trusting yourself and your vision. I’m Kristin and I’m a chiropractor turned health coach turned business coach. I’m on a mission to help visionary women break through the excuses that have been holding them back so they can live their most magical lives.

Most people think self-sabotage looks obvious. Procrastinating. Avoiding. Just not trying.

But in reality? It usually feels completely reasonable in the moment.

It looks like overthinking. Second-guessing. Tweaking things instead of finishing them. Telling yourself you just need to get a little clearer first — and then suddenly another week has gone by and you still haven't done the thing.

In this episode, I'm walking you through what self-sabotage actually looks like inside your coaching business, and why most people don't even realize it's happening.

If you've ever felt stuck even though you know what to do — this one's for you.

In this episode:
00:00 – What self-sabotage actually looks like
01:27 – The patterns that feel productive (but aren't)
03:15 – How it plays out in real life
05:30 – Why you keep doing it
07:00 – A different way to look at your business
10:00 – What to do with this
