Are You an introverted business owner struggling with burnout, who wants to reclaim your time and energy?
My decades of business experience as an entrepreneur has helped me see the business journey in a different way — a better way. Today, I see the business journey as a cycle that flows both forward and backward; it isn’t linear like we were taught. There are three phases in the business cycle where we get stuck, frustrated and burned out. When you lay a strong foundation in these three phases of the business cycle, you will flow and your business will grow.
Phase One
Phase one in the business cycle is the time in which you are establishing your business. This stage can feel overwhelming, like you need to know and do everything all at once. I call this the ‘sink or swim’ phase, because it can feel like you are drowning in overwhelm. I coach my clients on how to choose the most important steps, one step at a time. Creating a strong business foundation without getting overwhelmed by everything that needs to be done is central to success at this stage. A strong phase 1 business foundation will help you create faster and easier business results moving forward.
Phase Two
Phase 2 in the business cycle is when your business is established. The struggle in this phase is that you are still trading your time for dollars and your work/life balance is not established. The leap to work less and make more is possible but the process to get there is not as straightforward as you might think. In this phase, we focus on creating strong internal and external boundaries to gain the time and energy you need to grow your business with the balance, space and freedom to move forward with ease.
Phase Three
Phase 3 in the business cycle is having the successful business that you always wanted. However, it never feels like enough and it will never be enough if your vision is focused outward. I will coach you to reclaim your passion for your business vision by looking inward. If you have made it this far, you have the power to become a true visionary. We will coach on rekindling your passion for your business by restructuring and aligning your business so that it works for you and you no longer have to work for your business. When you align your business to who you truly are, your business becomes an extension of your vision and it flows through you effortlessly.
Personal coaching
Don’t have a business but still want coaching? Many of the coaching tools that I use in my business coaching such as work/life balance, mindset work on what’s holding you back from moving forward and creating strong boundaries to free up your time, energy and space are also amazing life skills that work for everyone even if you don’t have a business. One of the things I’ve noticed when I started working with a business empowerment coach was that not only did the coaching help me with my business skills, but it helped me with my life skills. This is because work is a microcosm of our lives and if you struggle with clarity and focus, moving forward or boundaries in your personal life, then you are also going to be struggling with those skills in your business. I like to say that if knowledge is power then self-knowledge is the power over your destiny.

It has been a great experience coaching with Carolyn. She really gives you a great prospective on business. Helping you change your mind set and dig deeper into yourself of what your compass is really telling you!
I’ve had an incredible experience working with Carolyn Elges for dream interpretation. Our sessions have provided me with clarity, helping me understand how my dreams are connected to my waking life. We reviewed the main symbols and connected the dots on what they represented. After our sessions, I felt a sense of ease and experienced several breakthroughs. I highly recommend Carolyn’s services.
Carolyn’s Coaching has helped me in so many ways, some of which include confidence, finding my voice and also learning a different management style that is forcing me to critical think and add organization to my day to day routine. I highly recommend Carolyn as a coach to anyone looking to better their lives and force you to think outside of your normal view. Thank you Carolyn!
I cannot recommend Carolyn as a life coach enough!!! I originally started seeing Carolyn when I was overly stressing about finances, but it turned out there was much deeper issues that needed to be addressed within myself and that’s exactly what Carolyn helped me do. I was going through a big life transition and our weekly sessions helped me move through these transitions with confidence and self love and gratitude. She is knowledgeable, sensitive, and compassion. Love her so much!!
Working with Carolyn has been a total game changer. She gave me the clarity and confidence I needed to raise my prices and helped me truly understand the value of what I offer. Her support and strategic guidance have made a direct impact on both my mindset and my bottom line. I’m so grateful for her insight and encouragement—my business is in a stronger place because of her!
Before working with Carolyn, I was stuck in over-giving in my business. Carolyn helped me see that my tendency to over-give and undercharge was a boundary issue. Through our work together, I have healed the dominant subconscious patterns that prevented me from raising my prices. Now I have raised my prices to a level that honors my needs AND my client’s needs. I am more healed, whole, and confident because I have improved my boundary setting through Carolyn’s guidance.
Carolyn was a fantastic coach. She helped me get to clarity on what I wanted and helped unlock some powerful realizations about thought distortions that had been holding me back on making the decisions that were right for my career. In addition to that, she’s caring, empathetic, and provides just the right amount of push back to keep you at your learning edge. I would highly recommend her!
Carolyn Elges’ coaching style and methods helped me to move beyond specific problems and take personal action to resolve these issues. Her advice was immediately effective in relieving anxiety from personal situations. She gave me a new ability to see the same stressful events through a more pragmatic and sometimes humorous perspective. It was a relief to have her guide me past feeling angry and resentful to being in a place of calm.
Carolyn’s experience as a business woman mixed with her coaching skills is a powerful combination. She really taught me to value my body wisdom more and because of that, I’m a faster and more confident decision maker in my business and my life as a whole. I also felt safe enough to get some very personal coaching from Carolyn and open up with her in a way that I’ve opened up with very few other people. She created a safe space for me and helped me create meaningful personal shifts.
I can honestly say that my life has changed completely since starting to work with Carolyn a year ago. I had a lot of inner dialogue that was holding me back from realizing my full potential. Carolyn has helped me to recognize where this dialogue began, how to dismantle it, and how to recognize similar patterns in other areas of my life. Now I know with absolute certainty how to achieve my dreams, communicate more effectively and live comfortably being a sensitive person. Working with her has been one of the best decisions of my life.
