Those of us who have been in the coaching field for many years have a responsibility to help those coming into our profession, and we want to make the path forward as clear as possible for them. Today’s guest and I are discussing the lessons we have learned in our many years of entrepreneurship with the hope of inspiring and encouraging other coaches. Join us to learn more in today’s packed show!

Marsha Clark is an executive coach and independent consultant who founded Marsha Clark and Associates in 2000. She has extensive experience in coaching, delivering workshops, and training around leadership development and more.
