Niching Isn’t a Life Sentence. It’s a Marketing Strategy.
You’re not alone if you’ve found yourself looping endlessly over your niche:
“Do I need to niche down more?”
“What if I choose wrong?”
“Am I being too broad… or too narrow?”
This thought spiral can feel productive. But it often becomes the #1 source of procrastination for coaches.
In this week’s video, I break down the truth that will finally set you free from niche anxiety.

Here’s a quick preview of what I cover in the tutorial:
🚫 Niching Is Not About Identity
It’s not “Who am I as a coach?”
It’s: “Who can I sell coaching to, right now, based on the problems I understand and can solve?”
Your business isn’t built on potential. It’s built on relevance.
People don’t hire coaches just because they’re passionate or helpful.
People hire coaches when something’s at risk.
🧩 You’re Not Too Niche — You’re Too Vague
Most coaches don’t have a “too niche” problem.
They have a no entry point problem.
If no one can recognize themselves in your message, they won’t engage. Specificity builds trust. Vague marketing creates indifference.
🧭 Lived or Learned Experience Creates Credibility
What makes you credible isn’t a certification or passion.
It’s your closeness to the problem, either by living it or mastering a process that solves it.
That’s what makes your message land. That’s how ideal clients recognize that you “get it” and you “get them”.
Your prospective clients want to be understood.
🧪 Marketing Is Not About Perfection. It’s About Iteration.
You don’t “figure out” your niche in your head.
You get clarity by testing, engaging, and refining in real conversations with real people.
So no, your first niche doesn’t need to be perfect. It just needs to be clear enough to take action.
