Ask Me Anything About Running a Coaching Business

Every week, I get messages from people who want to ask me questions about:

→ Choosing a coach training program
→ Switching careers to become a health coach
→ Sitting for the NBHWC Board Exam
→ Working as a coaching professional
→ Building a private practice
→ Getting a job as a coach
→ The coaching industry in general

The thing they all have in common is that they want to talk to a real person with experience in the industry who can answer their question honestly and help them get the information they need.

I absolutely love chatting with new coaches, but I'm not able to accommodate having these conversations 1:1 with the volume of coaching, consulting, and teaching work in my business.

So I've started hosting free small group Ask Me Anything events for people who want to talk to a real person about all things coaching! All you need to do is jot down your questions and I'll answer them during our time together.

This is a live Google Meet event capped at 10 participants to keep the space small and the vibe conversational. I don't record these sessions and I ask that you RSVP only if you can make it live since spots are limited. You can also join the waitlist to be notified of future dates!

I hope to see you there!

Hi, I'm Sonja!

I'm a board certified health and wellness coach (NBC-HWC), a financial social work coach, a learning and development professional, and a behavior change expert with 13 years of experience helping people navigate transitions and change their lives through the power of coaching.

I started growing my coaching business in 2011 and ran it part time on the side of my corporate coaching and training career until I took it full-time in 2024. In the meantime, I earned over 5,000 hours of coaching experience, developed the NBHWC-approved training program at a leading corporate health and wellness company, was the lead faculty member for a coach training program for 3 years, trained over 200 new health coaches, helped over 100 students pass the NBHWC Board Exam, and managed continuing education for a team of 300 coaching professionals.

I'm a behavior change nerd who's passionate about leveling up the professional credibility of the coaching industry, providing high quality coaching to my clients, and helping out coaching professionals along the way.
