Your Name:
Monica McPherrin
Name of Business: Empowered Paths
Coaching
Type of business: Life Coaching with a specialty in Divorce Recovery
What does your business do? I help support women going through or already
divorced who are having a hard time readjusting or want to work on enriching
their lives by following their passion.
Why did you start the biz and when did your business open? Business
opened January 2008. I wanted to help women feel empowered and aware of their
greatness. I always wanted to help facilitate positive change in women after a
divorce.
How many people in your company? I’m a 1-woman show.
What's your office location like? I work from home and have an office in a spare room of my house.
What's the toughest part of running your biz? As with most coaches, finding new clients and continually marketing is probably the toughest part of my job.
What's the most fun part? I enjoy helping someone realize that they are more strong and powerful than they thought. It’s great to see them motivated from our discussions and make positive changes in their lives.
Anything you would have done differently? I’m working on an E-book and Teleseminar. I’m also putting together some online coaching groups.
Explain what's next on the horizon for you and your business? I
want to move into e-products that I can sell and gain income while I am not
awake, so to speak. I would like to publish more of my writing and increase my
phone clients by just a bit.
What advice do you have for others? Don’t live your life for (or)
in the shadow of others. Find what makes you happy and do it! Don’t put up with
people, jobs, relationships or careers that are not for your highest good.
Always be improving yourself and stay away from negative or toxic people. They
rob you of your energy and joy. Life was meant to be abundant so stop playing
small and live in the manner that pleases you. If you want more, then go for it.
There is nothing wrong with catching up to your dreams.
How do you use OnlineBizU.com to help with your biz or sanity? Well I am
new, but I really enjoy the articles and teleseminars. I love to learn and this
is a great site for that.
Personal Info:
School
I attended Georgia State University and received my coaching certification from Lifeworks School of Coaching.
Prior jobs or business?
I was a Corporate Travel Agent for 15 years and a Mortgage Loan Processor for 5 years.
Favorite food? I love sushi and Italian.
What are your pets' names?
2 Dachshunds, Lola & Amber and 1 cat, Chelsea.
Do any of these pets help with your biz? No, but they would like to. They want to be with me all the time.
What person or event in your life led you to go into business for yourself?
My father was self-employed most of my life, and while I realized it was a
lot of work I knew he loved being his own boss. I wanted that for myself as well
and I’m glad I finally have it.
