Don’t worry about the title, focus on the work

02:19 I'm a coach, but I'm looking for other hats to try on. What else can I do? 

02:29 Question: Are you asking how to start a mindfulness Mastermind? Are you looking for other group coaching models? 

02:37 Last week I introduced myself as a coach. But I don't need to be a coach. I can be a trainer, etc. I want to look for different models and titles. 

02:51 Question: Have you done market research to ask what resonates with people more? What does the person hiring you think? 

03:23 Have you asked those you've already helped how they would describe you? That's how I got thing - one of my clients said, "You're an intuitive strategist." 

03:40 Question: Who are your ideal clients? Who do you like to work with the most? 

03:59 I'm familiar with the coaching model, but are there other ways to play? 

04:02 Suggestion: You can create your own! It's not about the title, it's about the offer. Let it unfold organically. Don't worry about putting a label on it until you've pinned down what it is you want to do. 

04:58 Question: How are you most comfortable teaching? When you're more comfortable it's going to land better. 

05:20 Tip: It's a work in progress, always. It's about what resonates with your people. Relate it more to the results your people want than what sounds cool for marketing. 

05:54 Suggestion: Drop the title of "coach" - that's not what you do. That doesn't mean that the coaching model won't work for you. 

Three Key points: 

1. Don't get hung up on titles, focus on the work.
2. Do what you're most comfortable with.
3. It's always a work in progress.
