Melanie Curtis joins me to talk about pivoting careers, building a coaching and speaking business, and choosing family, boundaries, and fun over the nonstop hustle grind. We start with Melanie’s shift from investment banking into pro skydiving, then from skydiving into coaching, driven by a subtle realization that her “dream job” still wasn’t the whole story. She unpacks the decision to lean into life coaching when it wasn’t cool, how she navigated the fear of it being a scam, and what it took to trust that quiet sense of calling anyway. From there, we get personal about missed flights to family events, the danger of filling your calendar with only client work, and the moment she decided she couldn’t outrun future regret. Melanie outlines how a coaching relationship starts with business problems and quickly hits deeper human patterns, why she pushes for year-long masterminds with real structure, and how she uses humor and her “comedy content creator” side to keep the pressure of entrepreneurship from boiling over. We close with her real-time experience of building a keynote speaking practice: long prospecting cycles, thousands of emails, warm intros that actually convert, and a clear stance on why discipline must sit alongside boundaries, rest, recovery, and connection if you want to stay in the game. === Chapters 00:24 Coaching Beyond Skydiving06:32 Family Over Hustle11:19 Coaching Deepens Personal14:22 Commitment Behind Coaching15:47 Peer Groups vs Masterminds19:41 Fun Fuels Serious Work24:48 Biggest Lesson in Pivoting25:41 Speaking Becomes the Focus31:02 Rejecting the Hustle Myth33:06 Wrapping Up and Contacts === Guest: Melanie Curtis, Melanie Curtis Coaching / Speaking Website: https://melaniecurtis.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/melaniecurtis11/ === Companies / Vendors / Products / Books How to Fly Book: https://amzn.to/4vk3A9THow to Fly Challenge: https://go.melaniecurtis.com/howtoflychallengeGratitude Challenge: https://go.melaniecurtis.com/gratitude-challengeBuild or Rebuild Your Bucket List: https://go.melaniecurtis.com/build-your-bucket-listACES Mastermind: https://acesmastermind.com/MelanieCurtis11 (Instagram handle): https://www.instagram.com/melaniecurtis11Spinal Tap (film): https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0088258Instant Teleseminar: https://instantteleseminar.comZoom: https://zoom.us === SPONSORS: Technology Partner, NetAlly: https://www.itbusinesspodcast.com/netally/Technology Partner: Bvoip: https://www.itbusinesspodcast.com/bvoipTravel Partner: TruGrid: https://www.itbusinesspodcast.com/trugridDigital Partner, Designer Ready: http://itbusinesspodcast.com/designerready === SHOW MUSIC: Item Title: Upbeat & Fun Sports Rock LogoItem URL: https://elements.envato.com/upbeat-fun-sports-rock-logo-CSR3UETAuthor Username: AlexanderRufireItem License Code: 7X9F52DNML === Connect with Uncle Marv🌐 Website: https://www.itbusinesspodcast.com/🎙 Host: Marvin Bee🛒 Uncle Marv’s Amazon Store (gear & tools I recommend): https://amzn.to/3EiyKoZ☕ Support the show: https://ko-fi.com/itbusinesspodcastIf you found value in this episode, share it with another MSP, IT provider, or tech entrepreneur.
