What\\u2019s up, Healthpreneurs? Welcome to the Healthpreneur podcast. Today, I want you to give it to me straight: Do you need a coach or a babysitter? As you\\u2019re looking to grow and get through challenges, do you want someone who\\u2019ll coddle you \\u2013 or do you want results?

I\\u2019m not the guy that\\u2019ll tell you that everything\\u2019s great when it\\u2019s not. I\\u2019m just not. If you want that, you should look for a babysitter. I empathize with my clients but also understand that they need a strong support.\\xa0

As coaches, our clients depend on us to show up as our best and offer our best. They need honest advice, feedback, and solutions. Otherwise, they\\u2019ll never push themselves forward and past their challenges. Tune in to hear when to hire a babysitter, when to hire a therapist \\u2013 and when to invest in a coach.
