The Life Coach School Podcast With Brooke Castillo

For 5 years, we have been helping people lose weight, build their businesses, stop overdrinking, mend relationships, build confidence, and so much more in Self Coaching Scholars.   In celebration of this huge milestone, I have invited five of my 5-Carat Diamonds, ladies that have been in Scholars since the start, on the show to share how being in Scholars has changed their lives. We talk about the tools that helped them the most, how to best utilize Scholars, and their advice for anyone new to the program or considering joining.
