The Costly Lesson of Choosing the Wrong Business Coach
December 11, 2024 - 13:02
Alejandra Roja invested over $10,000 in a business coach who ultimately proved to be a poor match for her entrepreneurial aspirations. As she embarked on her journey as a new business owner, she sought guidance to navigate the complexities of starting her own venture. However, the coaching experience left her feeling more confused than empowered. The coach's feedback, labeling her approach as "messy," led to self-doubt and uncertainty about her abilities.
Roja's experience serves as a cautionary tale for others considering hiring a business coach. She emphasizes the importance of finding a coach whose style and philosophy align with one's personal goals and values. It's crucial to conduct thorough research and seek recommendations to ensure the coach has a proven track record of success with clients in similar situations. Ultimately, the right coach should inspire confidence and clarity, not confusion and self-doubt.
