TRANSCRIPT

 

Well, hi there, my friend. Welcome to the Coach with Clarity podcast. My name is Lee Chaix McDonough, and I am so excited that we are kicking off a brand new four-part series, all about group coaching. And we are getting things started off right today with the first of four episodes, all about how to help you create a really powerful group program that will serve your clients and support your business. So over the next four weeks, we are going to be looking at whether or not a group program is right for your business. We will be speaking with a program creation expert about the things that you want to have in place before and during your group program. Then in the third episode of this series, I'm going to share with you some of the lessons I've learned through running group programs over the last several years. And then we are going to end this four part series with a coaching call that tackles the issue of group programs.
