Breathing Through Hard Things - with Ben Smith - a podcast by Jos Willard

One of the reasons why I typically say the online coaching industry sucks, is because so many of the big name gurus out there tell you basically the only way your coaching business is going to be successful is if you copy paste so that it looks like all of these other coaching businesses because there's only one real path to success.Well, I'm here to tell you that's not true, and on today's episode of Profit for Coaches, we're talking with Ben Smith. And Ben will show you that a coaching business can be successful without looking like you might think it should. Ben Smith is a fitness and nutrition coach. He's an entrepreneur, he's an army veteran, and he's a mental health advocate, and he's based out of Los Angeles. Over more than a decade of working in health and fitness, he's led programming at respected strength training gyms in LA, he's developed an online training for high performing individuals all over the world, and he currently travels the globe as a performance coach for clients in the music industry.There aren't a lot of gurus out there telling you that that's the way to build your coaching business successfully, but Ben does just fine. And he leverages his platform to promote holistic mind body wellness by candidly sharing his experience along the way. And he's sharing it with us today.
