In this episode, Kat walks coaches through the 10-step Soul Driven Success Visioning Process — a powerful yearly ritual she has refined over two decades. Building on last episode's “Year in Review,” this conversation dives deep into how to intentionally craft a 2026 vision rooted in alignment, positive momentum, and soul-level truth.

Kat breaks down each of the 10 steps with stories, examples, and practical prompts to help coaches release the past, elevate the positive, access their future selves, and design a vision that’s grounded, meaningful, and doable. She also shares details about upcoming workshops and how to access her guided visualization and visioning course inside the Soul Driven Success Community.

Key Takeaways

• Start by clearing your energetic field. Reviewing the past is powerful, but Kat emphasizes the importance of a letting-go ritual so old failures and negative self-talk don’t leak into your new vision.
• Seed your vision with what’s already working. Instead of inventing goals from scratch, build on strengths, wins, and positive momentum you already have.
• Visualization unlocks deeper wisdom. Kat shares how future-self visualizations revealed truths she couldn’t have logically known — and how this practice pulls your vision forward.
• Experiences matter more than outcomes. Instead of obsessing over numbers, define the experience you want: how your business and life will feel.
• Action becomes easier with structure. Vision boards, written vision stories, and the Soul Search Process create ongoing alignment and help you stay in consistent, soul-led action all year.

In this episode, Kat kicks off a brand-new visioning series designed to help coaches enter the new year feeling grounded, inspired, and aligned. She shares the origin story of her own “Year in Review” ritual and explains why this reflective practice is essential for creating a meaningful, soul-driven vision. Kat walks listeners through her three-part framework—Highlights, Lowlights, and Insights—and shows how this powerful process clears space, heals old energy, and lays the foundation for a more intentional and inspired year ahead.

She also reveals practical ways to conduct your own review using calendars, photos, journals, conversations, and rituals. Kat invites the community to join two free Visioning Workshops in December and January and shares how the upcoming 21-Day Challenge helps bring new visions to life.

Key Takeaways

• Visioning begins with reflection—to create an inspiring year ahead, you must first acknowledge and integrate the year behind you.
• Highlights, Lowlights, and Insights is a simple, profound framework for understanding what shaped your year.
• Lowlights hold gold—compassionate review of challenges and failures reveals growth, wisdom, and new direction.
• Using calendars, photos, journals, and conversations helps spark memories and deepen insight during the review process.
• A letting-go ritual clears emotional residue and prepares you to build a fresh, aligned vision for the coming year.

In this encore episode, Kat Knecht shares a powerful story from her book "Evolve Your Coaching Business" that reveals how to make smart money decisions as a coach. Using an unexpected analogy from her early life helping run a fruit-growing business, Kat shows how creativity, curiosity, and a clear niche can turn challenges into thriving success. She breaks down real numbers on what new and experienced coaches can expect to earn, how long it typically takes to build a profitable business, and the mindset shifts that make all the difference.

Key Takeaways:

• Your coaching income evolves as your business does — expect growth in stages, not overnight.
• Finding your niche is the “high-quality fruit” of coaching — it determines your success.
• Market research and curiosity open doors to opportunity you can’t see from the inside.
• Treat your coaching practice like a business, not just a service; track income, expenses, and projections.
• Mindset matters as much as strategy — stress about money blocks creativity and client connection.
