We’re pulling back the curtain on how we went from contractors to a self-led W-2 team that runs on Scrum, thrives with a 4-day workweek, and delivers at a seven-figure scale.

• Our journey: contractors → W-2 employees → Scrum
• How we made the 4-day workweek sustainable
• What a self-led, client-obsessed culture really looks like
• The biggest lessons (and mistakes) along the way

• Be a multiplier, not a diminisher
• Embrace agility and experimentation
• Get support (coaches, consultants, mentors)
• Learn fast from your mistakes

If you’re a coach, your story is your differentiator. In this episode, Jessica and Margy break down why podcast guesting is one of the most powerful tools for attracting coaching clients—without funnels, fancy websites, or writing a book.

From the coaches we’ve hired ourselves to the clients we’ve helped get booked, one truth keeps rising to the surface: People hire coaches not just for information—but for who they are.

Why podcast interviews convert better than content or ads:

• The nuance of coaching comes through in conversation
• People say yes to a coach based on how they respond—not just what they post
• Your presence, energy, and lived experience are your brand

You’ll learn:

• How to use podcast guesting to demonstrate your coaching in real time
• What you really need in place to start getting clients from podcasts (it’s simpler than you think)
• The difference between “visibility” and aligned visibility—and how to attract the clients ready to pay for your transformation
• 
  

Whether you're doing low-volume, high-end work or just starting out, this episode will show you how to show up and get paid just for being yourself.
