As Ed says, never give up on your dreams! If I can do it, so can you! The journey is worth it all!

Many have contacted me asking how to complete this process, so I thought I would lay it out here, step-by-step, in hopes it might help everyone. Ed has created a video outlining the steps, which I will summarize below https://www.skool.com/lifecoachcertificationfree/classroom/8ba4b069?md=023fc73b2bb14a25ba0bb47e14264f32. Here are THE STEPS: Send an email to 'Ed@championacademy.co.uk" containing the following: (since it is highly unlikely that you will be able to send your video via email due to size restrictions, I suggest creating a Google folder, adding these items there, and then sending the link to that folder). 1. A recording of ONE of your coaching sessions: (NOTE: This can be a video or audio - they are evaluating your coaching skills, which come through your language. There is no requirement on length - whether it's 30 minutes or 90 minutes does not matter). UPDATE: If your primary language is something OTHER than English, contact Ed's team at the email above to inquire if you can submit your coaching session in your native language. 2. A completed copy of the Coaching Assessment document (See attached) of your assessment of that coaching session. (NOTE: This is a SELF-ASSESSMENT where you assess the coaching session you are submitting. This requires NO ONE other than yourself. You submit this form, COMPLETED, with your coaching call.) 3. A completed Coaching Academy feedback form (See attached). 4. An acknowledgment that you have completed all the modules (They can check this behind the scenes so they already know if you did or did not complete them) 5. NOTHING ELSE NEEDS TO BE SUBMITTED. Your completion of your "tasking" is accepted on an honor system - they trust you are doing it, and you do not need to submit it. - NOTE: Most videos are too long to send via email - for that reason, I created a Google folder containing all the above and sent them the link to that folder (with access rights) in the email. - The coaching Assessment document is an Excel spreadsheet where you rate how well YOU covered each of the steps outlined in the spreadsheet. This is your best guess at how well you did and what you can improve upon. I don't believe they are looking for perfection, as we are always improving our skills. - UPDATE: many have asked if you need to demonstrate ALL the distinctions covered in the Expert Coach training. I think that would be a challenge to do - based on the self-assessment form, these are the skills you DO need to be able to demonstrate: 1)Creates introduction that is focused and engages the client. 2) Poise and confidence. 3) Pacing of speech. 4) Conveys ideas with originality and clarity 5) Addresses short-term goals 6) Addresses long-term goals 7) Responds to questions

Two great things to celebrate for me today, I just got the confirmation via email from the Expert Coach informing me that they reviewed my work and I passed the certification which will now be sent to me by post ☺️☺️ Feeling super proud! It also happens to be my birthday today, so this is an excellent surprise that is going to make this day even more special! I love this community and I’m feeling super grateful ☺️☺️☺️🥳🥳🥳

Thank you for your support This week @Deleted was invited to visit the special needs school we sponsor and help build in Bali. The children have continued to grow over the years and they are learning more and more skills as they get older. It is always great to see how your donations are making a difference in these children’s lives… They’ve got new tables and chairs in all the classrooms, sewing machines and even an air conditioning unit in one of the classrooms for the more severely disabled children. What was funny to see is they’ve added stickers with our logo to all of the equipment they’ve bought with your donations. The teachers found it very unusual when Carla showed them she had a matching tattoo of the logo on her arm These children are an inspiration. They have so little yet they’re so happy. It’s always a reminder to be grateful for the things we have in our lives and not to sweat the smaller things that we worry about because they don't matter in the grand scheme of things. Happiness is a choice and we can choose to be happy every single day You may have missed this... We do a quarterly prize giveaway for a FREE one-to-one session with the team.

Told you I had a Christmas pressie for you :-) Next week I'm running a free 5-Day Get Clients Challenge! It's going to be a one-off And If I do it again it will be charged and not free. So you dont want to miss it. Here's the deal: The biggest problem in the coaching consultancy industry is... ..getting clients! More importantly, it's knowing where to get them... How to sell them... Having the confidence to use the right price point... And knowing how to deliver so that they get an amazing result and they don't complain. In fact, 5 deeper problems need to be solved: 1. Niche Problem You need to be very clear on your niche. When I say your niche, you need to be very clear on the problem that you solve. If you're not clear on the problem that you solve, then it's very hard to get your client to the specific outcome. If you can't get your client to the outcome, it's very difficult to sell them because they only buy outcomes. They don't buy processes/methodologies, they only buy a specific outcome. The more specific the outcome, the easier it is to sell. 2. The Structure Of Your Offer How are they going to get to the outcome? What is the offer? What's the service? What's the delivery? What's the process of actually getting there? If you don’t get this clear and high value they won't pay... 3. How To Write An Ad That Attracts The Right Clients How do you write an ad so that you can get someone to download a piece of content that is in the right niche targeting the right problem and so it's not overwhelming. You're focused on just one specific thing, getting them to do that specific thing so that they can get one piece of content. What is the perfect ad? 4. Consultation Sales How do you take them through a consultation sale without giving away all of the ‘how to’? How do you frame their problem in a certain way so you're not salesy, you're not pushy? You're also going to make sure that they get value and they have a simple choice of how you can work together. It's smooth, the transition is not forced and they end up feeling heard and they want to work with you.
