#192 - Welcome to the Coaching Journals! 

Today, we're launching a new podcast series in which we're airing coaching calls between Heather Lahtinen and two members of the Hair of the Dog's Elevate community.  

Elevate is our next-level program where you get one-on-one contact with Heather and her team of coaches. In six months, you will learn how to set goals, take specific actions to benefit your business, get feedback, and refine and repeat. 

We invited our Elevate members to enter to win extra personal coaching sessions with Heather, which would be turned into podcast episodes so you can pick up some juicy bits to propel your own business forward. 

Our winners are (drum roll, please) Christi Baker of Christi Baker Photography in Atlanta and Monica Adalsteinsson of Pup + Me Photography in Phoenix. 

Heather embarks on a six-month journey with Christi and Monica to work with them on mindset, business processes and all the magic Heather creates with her coaching clients.  

Tune into the Coaching Journals to hear Heather help Christi and Monica set goals and meet them. 

What to listen for 

3:41 How many clients a month Christi needs to hit her revenue goals 

8:38 The brain games she's playing to keep her from moving forward 

14:39 Why we get stuck on the negative connotations of "selling" 

26:43 How Monica is refining her client membership program 

38:14 Why talking to more people nets more conversions 

40:15 Where Monica is getting stuck and how Heather helps 

Friends, this is just the beginning for Christi and Monica … and you! I am so stoked to see where our two photographers are going to take their businesses after these sessions with Heather. 

And if you're interested in learning more about Elevate and how it can take your business to new levels, all the details are right here. Get ready to fly.
