Is It Really Worth It? How to Know When a Coaching Investment Pays Off

Is It Really Worth It? How to Know When a Coaching Investment Pays Off

August 12, 20244 min read

Hey gorgeous glow getter,

So, I was chatting with my bestie the other day - you know, one of those heart-to-heart, iced chocolate in hand, deep-dive convos where you just get real. We were talking about something that's been on her mind (and I bet on yours too): whether investing in coaching is really worth it.

I get it. Dropping your hard-earned cash on a coaching program can feel like standing at the edge of a diving board, toes curled over the edge, wondering if the splash is worth the jump. And you know what? It’s a fair question.

Let’s be real—when it comes to spending money, especially on ourselves, we want to know we’re getting our money’s worth. It’s not just about the dollars, right? It’s about feeling that what you’re investing in is going to give you something real, something tangible. We’re talking about a shift, a change that sticks, and makes you look back and think, “Dang, that was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.”

The Tale of the Gym Shoes

The Tale of the Gym Shoes

Let me share a little story with you. Remember when you first decided to get fit? Maybe you bought a pair of sleek, new gym shoes. They were a bit pricey, but they felt like a promise - a commitment to your future self. But here’s the thing: those shoes alone didn’t make you fit. It was the steps you took in them, the miles you ran, the sweat you poured into them.

That’s kind of how coaching works. The investment is like those gym shoes - a tool to get you where you want to go. But it’s what you do with that investment that creates the real magic. It’s in the commitment you make to show up, do the work, and let yourself evolve.

The Value Perception: What’s on the Other Side?

Now, I know you’re mindful of your budget, and you’re wondering, “Is this really worth the splurge?” Let’s break it down together.

When you invest in coaching you’re not just paying for time with a coach or a few sessions. You’re investing in your future self - the one who’s more confident, more aligned, more you. It’s like planting seeds in a garden. At first, it’s just soil and a little watering can. But with time and care, those seeds sprout into something beautiful and nourishing.

And trust me, I’ve been there. I’ve stood at that very edge, wondering if the leap was worth it. Spoiler alert: it totally was! The growth, the clarity, the breakthroughs - they’re like the fruits of that garden, the ones that keep on giving, season after season.

Immediate and Long Term Wins

Immediate and Long-Term Wins

You might be thinking, “But what about right now? What do I get immediately?”

Fair question, my friend. Here’s the thing: coaching gives you tools and insights that start working their magic right away. It’s like when you start a new workout routine - you might not see abs by day three, but you feel different. You have more energy, you’re standing taller, you’re starting to believe in the possibilities.

And those long-term wins? They’re the life-changers. They’re the “I can’t believe how far I’ve come” moments. When you’re in the thick of it, making decisions that align with your true self, setting boundaries that honour your worth, and finally, finally living a life that feels like yours - that’s when you know it was all worth it.

Financial Concerns: Let’s Talk About It

I get it - no one wants to feel like they’re splurging on something frivolous. And with our Inner Spark coaching membership, we’ve made sure that every penny you invest is like adding value to your life’s piggy bank. It’s designed to give you both immediate support and long-lasting change.

But here’s what I always ask myself when I’m on the fence about an investment: “If I say no to this, what am I saying yes to?” Sometimes, not investing in ourselves means we’re saying yes to staying stuck, to the same old patterns, to the things that aren’t serving us. And that’s a cost too, isn’t it?

The Leap is Worth it

The Leap Is Worth It

So, here’s the deal. If you’re standing at that edge, wondering if this investment will pay off, I want you to know something: when you choose to invest in coaching, you’re not just buying a product. You’re saying yes to growth, to change, to becoming the person you’ve always known you could be.

And hey, I’m here with you on this journey. Inner Spark isn’t just a group coaching membership - it’s a place where you’ll feel supported, seen, heard and empowered. It’s where you get to show up, do the work, and see the results ripple through every part of your life.

So, are you ready to take the leap? Because from where I’m standing, the view on the other side is pretty darn beautiful.
