Raving Coaches

Let’s talk Speaking and Intuitive Decision with Teri Karjala (Captain Endotype)

Are you sitting in decision fatigue right now? You're going to love this episode with Teri Karjala. 
If you’re a coach who keeps second-guessing your next move, wondering if you’re choosing the “right” strategy, or feeling pulled in ten different directions… this episode is going to land. Teri brings in her background as a Business Success Therapist to talk about something most coaches don’t address directly: the unconscious blocks that keep you stuck fear, overwhelm, self-sabotage, and imposter syndrome.
We also got into something I see all the time in coaching businesses the difference between talking to people (the marathon) and using things like speaking and media (the sprint). And here’s the truth: most coaches want the sprint without doing the training. That’s where things fall apart.
Guest BioTeri Karjala is a Business Success Therapist, best-selling author of Be the Magic of You, and host of Talking With Teri-TV. With 28 years in counseling, she blends energy psychology, intuition, and principles of quantum physics to help entrepreneurs clear unconscious blocks and create aligned success.

Do You Understand What People Actually Want with Clive Enever (Captain)

I recently interviewed Clive Enever, and this conversation goes straight to the heart of why so many coaches struggle to get clients, even when they’re good at what they do.
Clive has been in business and coaching for over 30 years, and what he shared about sales, identity, and “ideal clients” is not what most coaches are being taught. We talked about why demographics don’t define your ideal client, what sales actually is (hint: it’s not persuasion), and how misunderstanding your client’s real needs is what’s quietly killing your conversions.
If you’ve ever felt uncomfortable selling, unsure who your work is really for, or frustrated that your marketing isn’t landing, this episode will give you a completely different way to look at your business.

She’s helping you understand how your brain works so you can build a business that runs even on the days when your energy, focus, or motivation are all over the place.

What’s the One Thing Your Website Needs

You can have a beautiful website… and still not get clients.
 
In this episode, I answer a simple but powerful question: what’s the one thing your website needs to make people book instead of bounce? After working with hundreds of coaches and hosting over 150 podcast interviews, I’ve seen the same issue over and over again, coaches aren’t clearly explaining the problem they solve in language their clients actually understand.
 
We dig into why “confidence coach” and “trauma coach” aren’t enough, how coach-to-coach language is hurting your business, and what it actually sounds like to communicate in a way that makes someone say, “Yes, that’s exactly what I need.”

Why You’re Always Tired, Stuck, and Gaining Weight with Erin Foley (Visionary Endotype)

I recently interviewed Erin Foley, and if you’ve ever felt like your energy disappeared overnight… your weight stopped responding… or your sleep just won’t cooperate anymore—this is the episode you didn’t know you needed.
In this episode with Erin Foley, we’re not talking about surface-level wellness advice. Erin breaks down what’s actually happening in your body after 35, especially the connection between cortisol, blood sugar, and the symptoms most women are frustrated by. So if you have ever felt like your energy disappeared overnight… your weight stopped responding… or your sleep just won’t cooperate anymore—this is the episode you didn’t know you needed.
The part that stood out most to me? Most women think they have a hormone problem at the “top of the iceberg”—but the real issue is happening underneath it.
Erin also shares her unique story of moving from a Chiropractic business to functional medicine practitioner and giving up her clinic. Find out why and how that move was created.

Why Most Coaching Collaborations Don’t Work (And What to Do Instead)

Most coaches say yes to collaborations way too quickly—and then wonder why nothing comes from them.
In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on collaborations: podcasts, summits, workshops, and all the “we should do something together” conversations that show up in your inbox or networking groups. Because the idea sounds great, but the execution? That’s where things fall apart. I share what I’ve learned from saying yes early in my business, what actually made a difference, and how I now evaluate every opportunity that comes my way.
We talk about marketing plans (or the lack of them), audience size, quality of leadership, and the difference between someone who’s building a business and someone who’s just dabbling. If you’ve ever walked away from a collaboration wondering what the point was, this conversation will give you clarity.
You don’t need more opportunities—you need better ones.

How to Stop People Pleasing and Be Yourself in Your Coaching Business with Robin Carr (Provider Endotype)

If you’ve ever felt like you’re “not quite saying it right” when you talk about your work you're going to enjoy this interview with Robin Carr.
Robin talks about being unapologetically yourself, and what I appreciated is that she didn’t make it fluffy. She made it practical. This isn’t about confidence affirmations. It’s about how you talk to yourself, what you tolerate, and whether you’re actually willing to show people who you are.
We also got into why coaches hold back in their marketing, how people-pleasing shows up in business, and why small daily choices (not big reinventions) are what actually create change.Robin Carr is a mindset coach and speaker who helps individuals break out of limiting patterns and step into a more confident, self-directed version of themselves. She is the founder of Thrive Unapologetically and creator of the Empower framework.

How to Sell Coaching Without Feeling Pushy or Awkward

I recently had someone ask me what Endotype is a “natural seller”. All Endotypes can sell, but sales often feels uncomfortable for a lot of coaches. It doesn’t mean you are bad at it. You just don’t have a structure for the sales experience.
In this episode, I walk you through the exact framework I use on sales calls that makes them feel easier, more natural, and far more effective. Instead of trying to “sell” your coaching, you’ll learn how to guide your potential client through two clear decisions—one that has nothing to do with your offer at all.
We dig into how to help someone fully see why what they’ve been doing isn’t working, how to identify whether they’re actually ready for change, and why so many calls stall out before you ever get to talking about your program. If you’ve ever had a great conversation that didn’t turn into a client, this will explain why.
This is one of those episodes that will immediately change how you run your next sales call.

How to Stop People Pleasing with Anna Hanael (Visionary Endotype)

When I first started coaching, I wore “empath” like a badge of honor. But the more I learned from Anna Hanael, the more I realized that being an empath without boundaries leads straight to burnout, anxiety, undercharging, and people-pleasing in business and relationships.
 
In this episode Anna shares her journey from communist Poland to becoming a hypnotherapist and energy teacher working with professional empaths who look successful on the outside but feel exhausted inside. We talk about the difference between the unconscious empath (the people-pleaser) and the evolved empath—someone who knows how to sense energy without making everything about them. We also dive into pricing, energy exchange, and why free clients often value transformation the least.
 
If you’re a coach who struggles with boundaries, over-giving, or charging what you actually need, this episode is going to challenge you in the best way.
 
About Anna HanaelAnna Hanael is a speaker, mentor, healer, and certified hypnotherapist with over 25 years of experience in energy work. She helps high-performing empaths rebuild self-worth, regulate their nervous systems, and lead with grounded presence in love and business using her signature Hanael Method.
