She joined Coach U in 1995, became the ICF's 5th President, and has since built a globally recognized coaching practice spanning 47 countries and six books.In this episode, David sits down with Marcia to unpack the real challenges coaches face — chief among them, the shock of realising they've just started a business, not just a coaching practice. Marcia is direct: if you're not willing to sell, market, and show up consistently, your coaching career won't last.They also dig into why AI is actually a *gift* to coaches (not a threat), how to leverage your corporate past instead of running from it, and what Marcia updated in the second edition of her landmark book *Coach the Person, Not the Problem* to address the age of AI and the crisis of human connection.**Key themes:** Building a coaching business | Identity shifts | Niche & visibility | AI vs. human coaching | Purpose-driven entrepreneurship🔗 Connect with Marcia Reynolds 🌐 Website: https://outsmartyourbrain.com 🌐 Website: https://covisioning.com/ 💼 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/marciareynolds/📖 Get the Book Coach the Person, Not the Problem (2nd Edition) — available on Amazon and major online bookstores, or visit https://covisioning.com/coach-the-person-not-the-problem-2nd-edition/Ready to close the Growth Gap?
