If you’ve ever wished more people would just send great clients your way... this episode is for you.

Referrals are one of the easiest, most effective ways to grow your business. They’re warmer, more cost-effective, and way more aligned with the heart-centered way most coaches and practitioners want to grow. And in 2025—when trust is everything and people want real-deal transformation over polished sales pages—they’re more important than ever.

But most coaches unintentionally block referrals without even realizing it. In this episode, I’m naming 5 of the most common mistakes that stop referral flow in its tracks—plus 2 bonus ones I couldn’t leave out. I’m also giving you supportive reframes and mini-strategies for each one. You’ll walk away feeling more empowered, clear, and ready to magnetize amazing new clients through the relationships you already have.

In this episode, you’ll hear:

  • Why referrals are so much more powerful than cold outreach or ads

  • The #1 fear that stops coaches from asking for referrals (and how to shift it)

  • The surprising reason vague messaging kills referrals—and how to fix it

  • Why “sounding professional” can actually backfire in your outreach

  • What to do before you reach out to someone you’ve lost touch with

  • How being deeply transformational in your work naturally fuels referral flow

  • What a “referral event” is and why even a small list is enough to host one
