Many entrepreneurs stand still at some point in their careers and find that they no longer get the energy and satisfaction from their work. This was exactly the situation Judith Elissen, owner of Social Media Salland, found herself in before she decided to participate in business coach Gerdi's Unlimited Freedom Premium Program.
Judith's Beginnings as an Entrepreneur
Judith began her entrepreneurial journey after a long career as a secretary and management assistant. She founded Social Media Salland to help entrepreneurs with their social media marketing. Despite her enthusiasm and passion for her work, she began to get stuck after three years. The work-life balance was lacking, and she felt overwhelmed by the daily tasks that did not bring her the satisfaction she was looking for.
The Turning Point: Gerdi as Business coach
Looking for a solution, Judith decided to take coaching with Gerdi. This proved to be a crucial step in her personal and business growth. In their initial conversations, Gerdi emphasized the importance of personal development and the need to let go of what no longer works. Judith realized she needed to rethink her offerings, customer base and pricing strategies to find energy and fulfillment again.
The Transformation
The coaching sessions with Gerdi gradually brought the insights Judith needed. She learned to set clear boundaries and say goodbye to clients who no longer fit her renewed vision. This gave her space to attract new, appropriate clients and further develop her services.
Judith says, "Change takes time. Through our weekly conversations and the program of Gerdi, my mindset changed. I learned that I could choose for myself and say no to what didn't suit me. It was a process of letting go and rebuilding."
Concrete Results
Thanks to coaching, Judith adjusted her business model and developed new services. She increased her rates to better reflect the value she offers. The result? More energy, better balance and renewed passion for her work.
"I have made great strides with Gerdi's help. I now feel full of energy again and am happy with what I am doing. I would not have achieved this without her," Judith said.
Recommendation for Ambitious Entrepreneurs
Judith's story is an inspiring example of how coaching can contribute to both personal and business growth. She therefore wholeheartedly recommends Gerdi to other ambitious entrepreneurs who want to grow on their own terms, with fun, freedom and balance.
"Gerdi draws from a lot of knowledge and experience and has a razor-sharp sense of how best to help you. Sometimes confrontational, but that works for me," says Judith. "If you are an ambitious entrepreneur who wants to grow professionally and personally, I can definitely recommend Gerdi!"
