How a Dietetic Student Built a $10K/Month Coaching Business

If you've ever felt like you need more credentials, more time, or more experience before you're "allowed" to start your business… this episode is going to challenge everything you've been telling yourself. In this episode, I'm sitting down with Alli Bollinger, who went from inconsistent, unpredictable income to building a multi–five-figure coaching business all while still in school. She shares how she stopped "posting and praying," created real structure in her business, and turned her personal story into a powerful, profitable niche. If you've been waiting for the "right time" to start, grow, or scale your business, this conversation will show you what's actually possible when you decide to go all in before you feel ready.

Tune in to hear: • Why you don't need to wait for a degree or certification to start making money • How Alli went from inconsistent $3K–$10K months to predictable $12K+ months • The shift from "posting and hoping" to having a real client acquisition strategy • What actually changed when she stopped guessing and started following a plan • How she signed 12 one-on-one clients from a single launch • Why confidence in business comes from clarity, not more content • The truth about building a business in a sensitive niche like eating disorder recovery • How sharing your story can create trust (instead of the judgment you fear) • Why one-on-one coaching was the best place for her to scale (not more offers) • The biggest misconception students have about needing to follow a "traditional" career path • How she balances school, clients, content, and still maintains flexibility • Why having a plan removes desperation and increases conversions • The mindset shift that helped her stop fearing inconsistent income
