I’m here to make sure you don’t.

Welcome to The Solo Coach podcast, the ultimate support system for building your business, solo...without draining every last drop of your energy.

Whether you’re just getting started, landing your first client, or leveling up without losing your sanity, this podcast is your personal support system (because winging it only gets you so far).

Here’s what you’ll find:

→ Real talk about building a one-woman coaching business from the ground up (because solo doesn’t mean stressful).
→ Simple marketing strategies that feel doable (and actually work).
→ Time-saving systems and AI shortcuts to make running your business less “long days on the laptop” and more “coffee dates with friends.”
→ Energy and belief practices to keep you focused, motivated, and manifesting your next big win.

I know what it’s like to wear all the hats, feel like nothing’s working, and wonder if you’re cut out for this. Spoiler: You are. You just need clarity, good support, and a solid plan that doesn’t make you want to stay in bed all day. (The right energy helps too.)

So, grab your coffee (or tea...or let’s be honest, chocolate), and let’s get to work. I’m here as your coaching business growth partner, bringing you clarity, confidence, and a little solo-coach swagger.

Your success is closer than you think.]]></itunes:summary><image><url>https://artwork.captivate.fm/3e1e4bae-92de-453c-a7b3-c85b5b5d7caf/TSC-Cover-2026-1400.jpg</url><title>The Solo Coach</title><link><![CDATA[https://theelevatedmind.com]]></link></image><itunes:image href="https://artwork.captivate.fm/3e1e4bae-92de-453c-a7b3-c85b5b5d7caf/TSC-Cover-2026-1400.jpg"/><itunes:owner><itunes:name>Michelle Sera</itunes:name></itunes:owner><itunes:author>Michelle Sera</itunes:author><description>As a solo coach, I’ve bombed, burned out, and doubted everything.
