#239: Attention, Trust, Conversion: The Path That Grows A Coaching Business
Feb 25, 2026 Season 4 Episode 239
Michelle Kuei

Some of the most horrifying stories I hear from coaches?

They spend thousands of dollars building funnels, websites, and memberships…and they still don’t have paying clients.

So in today’s episode, I’m breaking down what a funnel actually is — and how to set up a simple funnel as a new coach without complicated tech or expensive software.

Because a funnel isn’t magic.

It’s just the path that turns strangers into clients:
 how people find you → how they trust you → how they pay you.

In this episode, we cover:

  • What a funnel really is (in plain English)
  • The 3 stages of a simple funnel: Attention, Nurture, Conversion
  • Why your funnel won’t be a straight line (and what to do instead)
  • How to stop chasing clients and let the system do the work
  • The beginner-friendly way to build your funnel
