A few years ago, I couldn’t find a planner that truly supported coaches - something that balanced growing a business with growing as a person. So, I created one. Three years on, it’s become a trusted tool for hundreds of coaches to plan an aligned and prosperous year. You can now choose the option that suits you best (links below) 1️⃣ Free Digital Download – Get instant access to the online version of the 2026 Coaches’ Planner. 2️⃣ Printed Planner on Amazon – Order your copy to write in and keep by your side all year. 3️⃣ Dare Greatly Online Workshop – Thursday 4 December – Join me live as we plan together. You’ll receive a printed planner in the post plus a few thoughtful extras.
