episode From "I Can't Make 6 Figures in 2 Days a Week" to $150K That Year: Michelle Vroom on the Mindset Shift That Built a $2M Business cover

Description

Michelle Vroom was a corporate marketing pro with 15 years of experience, a cushy job, a boss who worked remote, and a flexible schedule. On paper, nothing was wrong. But the moment her first son was born, she knew. She didn't want to commute away from him. She didn't want to keep trading time for a paycheck that wasn't hers. She wanted to be home. So during maternity leave, she hustled. She went back to work for two months. Then she looked at her husband and said, "I think I'm going to go insane." She picked her business and never looked back. They scrimped. They budgeted. She was the breadwinner, and she walked away anyway. Because to Michelle, not doing it was scarier than doing it. In this episode, Michelle Vroom shares: * The exact moment her entire business changed: her coach asked "who says you can't make 6 figures working 2 days a week?" and Michelle had no answer. She went from planning to settle for $50K to making $150K that year. * How she crossed $2M in her coaching business since 2018, averaging around $300K a year and working about 20 hours a week, built almost entirely on organic marketing. * What happened in March 2020 when her husband came home without a job, two months before she gave birth to their third son. She didn't panic. She said, "I got this." Not a single thing about their lifestyle changed. * Why she made the hard decision to shut down her lifetime access group program in 2024, take a revenue dip, and rebuild around high-touch offers. And why last year was her best year ever, with over $400K in sales. * The data-driven approach she uses with every client: tracking conversations, invitations to sales calls, and conversion rates. One client went from an "abysmal" March to a $20K month, simply by tracking what was actually moving. * Why true demand-driven content gets fewer comments, and why that's actually a sign you're doing it right. Her Facebook community has 8,400 members and converts powerfully because she built it as a community, not a group. * The identity shift that got her to 6 figures: acting like the woman who had already made it, before the money showed up. Her overarching thought? "I'm going to work it until it works." * What she tells every person waiting to feel ready: "Ready is a lie. You're never going to arrive. You create readiness as you take action, just like you create confidence as you take action." About Michelle Vroom: Michelle Vroom is a business coach with over 15 years of marketing and PR experience across nonprofits, agencies, and corporations. She's the founder of the Market Like a Boss Facebook community and host of the Market Like a Boss podcast. She helps women small business owners build predictable 6-figure coaching businesses in 20 hours a week, with more freedom and peace. Her belief is simple: every woman entrepreneur should be able to get clients whenever she wants.

So why are you not getting paid for it the way you should be? In this episode I tell you about the six years I scraped by, the month everything finally changed, and the story of my dad, a gifted coach who made $10,000 one time and never again, while we ate cereal from the food pantry. The difference between making it once and making it on repeat comes down to one learnable skill: attracting the right people consistently and holding the conversation that gets the yes on the spot. You can do this. It is possible for you. You just need the skill, and you can have it. Ready to become the coach who signs clients every day?

Part 3: The Coach Who Gets to Have it All (3-part series)

You can know everything from the first two episodes and still not do any of it. This is episode three of The Coach Who Gets to Have It. The final phase. The one I named my entire program after, because without this piece, none of the rest works. This is where most coaches lose the dream. Week one they are on fire. Week two doubt creeps in. Week three someone says their price is too high and they panic. By month three they are back to scrolling Instagram wondering why it works for everyone else. Nothing changed strategically. Their old identity took back over. In this episode I walk you through the full EMBODY framework. The six pieces of actually becoming the coach who gets to have it all. Elevate your thoughts. Merge with your future self energy. Be your future self all day. Overflow client attraction. Decisive action daily. Yield with integration. And then I go deep on M, the body-level work, because that is where most of the real transformation happens. Inside M I introduce the three frameworks I teach: Window Expansion, The Six Levels of Depth, and The Somatic Spectrum. The work that almost no one in this industry is teaching out loud, and the reason coaches who have been stuck for years finally start moving. This is the full path now. Dream. Design. Embody. You have heard all three. The work is yours to walk through. Message me the word "podcast" and we'll talk about your business right now: https://m.me/rebeccabarnheart Additionally, if you want to learn about the 3 frameworks that we use inside the MERGE work we do inside of the Embodied Society, here is the 90-minute masterclass you can watch: https://embodiedsociety.com/merge-masterclass

Part 2: The Coach Who Gets to Have it All (3-part series)

A dream without a plan is just a wish. This is episode two of The Coach Who Gets to Have It, and today we are turning the dream from last week into a real business. This episode is for you if you have been doing all the things and somehow your business is not moving. If you have been winging it instead of executing a plan. If you have been working really hard to build something that does not yet have a tangible design underneath it. I walk you through what business design actually is, why it has to be custom to your life and not borrowed from someone else's playbook, and the one piece almost no certification ever teaches you: the conversation that turns a stranger into a paying client. The ES Gap Method is the conversation framework that took my business past a million dollars in coaching sales. My clients have used it to generate millions in their own. I walk you through how it works in this episode. I also tell you the truth about why even the best design and the best conversation framework will not work if you have not done the becoming piece. That is what episode three is for, and it is the most important one in the series. Message me on Messenger and tell me where you are stuck in the design phase. I want to hear it. https://m.me/rebeccabarnheart Next week, Phase three. Embody.
