I took a little bit of an unplanned hiatus from Let's Talk About Brand, but now I'm getting back into it!
Today’s guest, Janine Coombes, is one of the incredible speakers at my Higher⚡️Voltage event for solopreneurs, happening at Battersea Power Station in London on January 22, 2026 (Dani, Sophie, and Teresa are all speaking too, and I’ll be having Sapna and Hannah on in coming weeks!).
(Janine’s been on before, but the show was a slightly different format then, so it felt like time for a new episode!)
Janine also happens to be someone I actually work with–she’s helped me detangle a lot about my offerings and how I present them! I am one of the "coach shaped people" she helps, and in this interview we get into what that means, how she helps, and how her first book, "The Easy Yes," came about.
We also talk about Janine’s personal talents, what lights her up about doing the work that she does, how she came to do the work that she does, and also how she became known for it. Because it's great if you're brilliant, but if nobody knows who you are or what you do, that's not gonna do you a whole lot of good.
Come see Janine speak at Higher⚡️Voltage!
In this episode:
- What are "coach shaped people"?
- Why does Janine enjoy working with “coach shaped people” most?
- The turning point that led Janine to working for herself
- “What I missed for an embarrassingly long time was actually having something solid that people could actually buy!”
- Gaining visibility…but without offers
- “Perhaps wear a set of pearls…”
- “The Easy Yes” offer matrix
- “At the ready point, what does it look like?...create content that calls to that and then you can work back”
- What's next for Janine
- What Janine hopes to leave the Higher Voltage audience with in January
- What Janine truly delivers
- What gives Janine a real sense of satisfaction in her work
- “The C word” (it’s not cancer…or c**t)
- What she’d do if she were guaranteed to succeed at it (I love this one! -C)
