Profit vs. Values? - a podcast by Jos Willard

Have you noticed these days how taking a moralistic stance always comes with a price tag? If you care about animal welfare then that organic free-range chicken is going to cost you more than the bargain bucket at KFC, right? Would you like to get some solar panels on your roof to cut your energy consumption down? How about making sure you are the fittest and healthiest you can be? How much is that gym membership or personal trainer? To achieve wellbeing by the standards of modern-day living, you have to pay.

Today I expel the myth that prioritizing profit in your coaching practice is simply a money-hungry endeavor. I discuss the importance of your business solvency, and how this will give you the freedom to fulfill your lifestyle values and practice authentic and valuable coaching. I explain the psychology of Profit For Coaches and how we can take your existing behaviors and leverage them to help rather than hinder you. I also take an old-fashioned tactic to allocate your finances and show you how this will fortify your profit, making it a reward for you and not just another cash-flow problem.
