Lessons learned after 10 years of coaching – about development, clarity, and conscious decisions
When you coach for ten years, it's not just the business that changes.
You change yourself.
I didn't even rebuild my work—
—but developed it further several times.
From classic 1:1 to online support
I started out in the traditional way:
Personal training at clients' homes.
Direct, intensive, personal.
This taught me:
how differently bodies react
how stress, nutrition, and exercise affect each individual
how important trust is in cooperation
Adaptation is not a weakness
Corona brought about radical change.
I built my business entirely online.
Not every decision was easy.
But it was necessary.
This phase has shown me:
If you want to work long-term,
you must be prepared to question your model.
Development also means letting go
Over time, my personal circumstances have changed.
And so have my priorities.
Today I am working:
exclusively online
location-independent
with clear boundaries
with carefully selected female customers
No less committed.
But much more focused.
My biggest learning
Not every customer is suited to every phase.
Not every offer is suitable for a lifetime.
And not every growth is meaningful.
I no longer work with:
constant stress
"more is better"
pure discipline
But with:
smart load
hormonal consideration
Structure instead of pressure
Experience is not demonstrated by volume
After ten years, I know this:
Results are not achieved through hard work.
But through clarity.
And it is precisely this clarity that forms the basis of my work today.
Conclusion
Experience does not mean continuing as before.
Experience means consciously working differently when the time is right.
And that's exactly how I work today.
