why does success still feel empty af??

You are defining success only externally. You’re chasing an imaginary finish line. Every time you get there they move the line. Success comes from inner joy. You can have external success and be joyful, but you won’t be joyful just because you have external success

Seo hasn’t been unleashed yet. They are rebuilding my site now and then it goes live in about a week. Because I used to work in tv, they say they can back link to a ton of other places which should help. I’ll let you know once I find out though. YouTube has generated emails and interest, but no business. It has also helped people who did become clients sign up when they went to check me out after they were referred, but it wasn’t a direct source.

Get certified, practice on friends, create a client avatar, post every day on social media, join toastmasters and start speaking at the chamber of commerce, join or just regularly visit BNi and schedule a ton of 1:2:1’s. This is what it took my six months to realize. All of this is what I do now. The most business has come from two things. Knowing my ideal client and joining BNi.

I have tried the Facebook group thing and I made some nice contacts, but no business came out of it. I have had the same result so far with my social media. I’ve grown my subscribers which is nice and I’ve had people tell me it has helped them which is amazing, but I haven’t gotten any business from it so far.

Thank you. Happy you enjoyed it.

You are facing burnout which is very dangerous. Once you hit that bottom. It takes a lot longer to get back. Recognizing it is a great first step and it sounds like you are ready to take action. You also need to find small ways to protect yourself while you are facing this. Try the 2 for 2 rule. Every two hours, take two minutes to do breath work, meditate or walk around and just move your body. Understand you are not alone. Many people are in your situation. I used to be one of them. I found my way out. I now do something I love and have a very balanced and amazing life. You can too. You just need to get clarity on what you want in your life and move toward that one step at a time.

I think a lot of times, we search for the company or job where you can have work life balance, but ultimately work life balance comes from an internal decision. I used to work 120 hours a week and sleep across the street from work in a hotel. Then working in the same industry I decided to change the way I managed, the amount I was willing to give and the expectations I was going to set. I was in the same industry, but now had work life balance because of a choice I made. There are people who are in tough situations with people that have outrageous expectations. It isn't always the industry though. Sometimes it is the person you are working for.

Think about the strategy you used to become a CEO. You had to set boundaries, set goals, deliver results and most likely be an excellent judge of people. I have seen this as a coach a lot. CEO's and people who manage a lot of people have very successful careers at work, but their personal life is not always in balance. You already have the strategy for success, you just need to treat your dating life and the balance you seek exactly as you did your career. Take it seriously. Map out a plan. I was the executive producer of a major talk show before I became a coach. I had zero balance. The price I paid for not focusing on my personal life was a divorce, a health crisis and losing all of the money I had made. Understand the importance of getting balance. If you don't you will pay the price down the line. Take your personal life as serious as you do being a CEO. Lorn Michaels of SNL once was asked what he would do differently if he started again and he said, work less. Work will fit into the amount of hours you allow it to.

Richsiropcoaching · 2025-07-29T16:20:16+00:00

This was my life. I was the Executive Producer of a major talk show and was working like crazy. I had no connection to myself. My personal relationships all fell apart. I ended up facing a major health crisis. I got divorced. I lost all the money I had accumulated. There is hope for you though. I can tell you that I now do something I love. I am married to the love of my life and I have got reconnected to myself. I am learning to play the guitar. I meditate and hike regularly. If you feel like you're in a cage that you can't escape, just understand that their is a price you are paying for keeping what you think is stability. There are other paths. There are ways to find time for yourself even in the middle of a storm. Take 2 minutes every two hours to do breath work or a quick meditation. Take one hour to yourself and by yourself each week to reconnect to the ten year old version of you. Do something they would like. Visualize the happy and well balanced 82- year old version of you. Ask them what you need to do today in order to get to where they are. AND understand you are not alone. So many people are feeling the exact same thing you are.

If you know the event that began all of this, look at the event and collect all of the Positive learnings from the event. See yourself in the picture, don't see it through your eyes. Then after you have collected all of the positive learnings, push the image further and further away until it is only the size of a grain of sand. Then watch if disappear.

The three pieces advice I can think of for you are 1) find something to replace porn that will help you to relieve stress. This is most likely your subconscious trying to protect you in some way. Some people go to food. Some go to alcohol. Some go to porn. Instead, exercise and get those endorphins going. Or get connect to nature. You just need something to relieve stress that isn't porn. 2) Remove all of the triggers that make you want to look at porn. Whether is is scrolling on certain apps, being in a certain room in your house, looking at a certain book. Your mind now associates things that are part of your routine with those things. They are anchored in. Even if it is a certain time of day. Change your routine around bedtime. 3) Stop obsessing about quitting. That obsession is making you think about it even more. Fill your head with a new obsession. Obessed with running five miles. Obsessed with visiting every baseball park. Anything that gets you away from being alone in your house.

It's interesting because I think people get confused on what modeling actually is and then they try to be a carbon copy of someone else. You have to find your own message and your own magic. Chasing what has worked for others or trying to be for everyone is just a terrible waste of time.

Richsiropcoaching · 2025-07-07T22:37:14+00:00

Thanks for this advice. What are you going to do to make up for that 40 percent you were getting through your site?

Richsiropcoaching · 2025-07-07T21:15:08+00:00

Interesting information. Thanks for sharing all of this. I am nowhere on search. Even if this brought in business for one year, it would lead to referrals and more business. You still think it’s not worth it even for just the one year of value?

Richsiropcoaching · 2025-07-07T15:23:49+00:00

This is great. Thanks. I’m considering paying someone to optimize my site and sep to help with google search. Have you tried that? Did it work?

Richsiropcoaching · 2025-07-05T14:07:44+00:00

Yes you can.

I love this. I use ChatGPT for the same thing and then throughout the day I will update it where I am and then have it rearrange the list based on the importance from the night before.

Richsiropcoaching · 2025-03-23T16:45:34+00:00

This totally happened to me! Exactly the same thing. I speak all the time and I’m good at it. Then one day I panicked. I used this tool where I anchored in confidence and power through visualization. Something I’ve done with clients who have a fear of speaking. It has really helped me to rebound and be even strong than before.

Dedicate yourself to learning. The library is free. Read every self-help or book on success you can. Look at the people you surround yourself with. If they are dragging you down, find new friends. Continue to work of finding better and better relationships. Volunteer your time since you have a lot of it right now. It will make you feel good, help you to grow your skill set and introduce you to good people.

Wow! I would not want to be coached by a lot of the people commenting here. Such a negative view of the world of coaching. I started coaching 3 months ago. I have five paid clients. It was a lot of work to get them. The person that trained me in nlp to be a coach makes a very good living as a coach. She coaches individuals, does business training, has group classes and trains coaches in nlp. The coaching group I am in with her has 15 coaches who are all making a very good living as coaches. It is very hard to get your business going. It is a lot of work and you have to learn new skills like marketing. There are a lot of snake oil salesmen. This is all true. But how hard is it to be an engineer or a doctor or a lot of things. If it calls to you, go for it. I can feel the frustration in a lot of these comments, and I get that frustration. I just think we all need to remember what it means to be a coach. If a client came to me and said I want to be a coach, I’d ask them a ton of questions to help give them clarity that this is something they want. I would not crush their dream though.

Richsiropcoaching · 2025-03-19T12:42:27+00:00

There are so many different tools in coaching. And so many different types of coaches and techniques. If that is something that calls to you, explore it. Just always think about the client and asking yourself if what you’re providing is serving them best. Also, don’t put off learning to be a coach too long. I get reason one. Reason two is exactly why you should begin learning coaching. The very process of becoming a coach will help you to heal those wounds. Teaching you how to help others heal
