[BTS] Insights from 3+ Years in the Game
One of the best ways to learn how to build a coaching biz is to hear from those that are further down the road.
For this fireside chat, we've invited Brian Duggan, Cindy Gross, and Flora Devlin to share their honest experiences with us.
We'll pull back the curtain on their coaching business journeys and will talk about: their biggest learnings, best practices, mistakes, their business growth trajectories, and anything else that comes up.
Audience questions and perspective sharing highly encouraged :)
