Chapter 1: What is the importance of building a team?
You want to help people, you can become a paramedic. Or you can build a hospital. And I'm like, I need to build a hospital. For me, I always knew in the back of my mind this past year that I needed a staff. I needed more people to help me spread my message. So I actually created a program where I train people underneath me. You know, I trust them to give my message, teach my methodology.
So you have to find people or at least a person that you trust.

Chapter 2: How can I transition from being a solo entrepreneur to a team leader?
What's up, guys? Welcome back to another episode of Living the Red Life. Today, we have Beth on the show. She's been a client of ours for a year, gone through an epic journey of going from solo entrepreneur that was fully booked and now helping hundreds more people, building teams, impacting lives. So, Beth, welcome to the show.
Thank you so much, Rudy. It's great to be here.
Chapter 3: What steps are involved in scaling a business?
So, look, let's dive into it. I really wanted you on because, I mean, it's a great case study of transitioning from that solo entrepreneur, that expert, you know, coaching, helping, changing lives. But it's like, how do I go beyond helping 50 people, right? And that's how I started as a personal trainer 15 years ago. I was helping 50 people a week and I changed their lives and it was great.
But deep down, I'm like, I want to change millions of lives. That's right. And I learned everything I did and, you know, I'm on my way to doing that. And now you are too.
Chapter 4: How do I find the right people to help spread my message?
Yeah. Thanks to you. I am. Absolutely. You know, I was doing coaching one-to-one private sessions with clients. I, you know, I'm basically a counselor working with couples and I was seeing seven clients a day, five days a week. And they were one-hour sessions? One-hour sessions. I mean, there were days I didn't have time to go to the bathroom, you know? Oh, yeah. But it was a passion. Sure.
I didn't mind it, you know? But I knew I needed to do more. I needed to expand so I could reach more people.
Chapter 5: What are the benefits of moving beyond one-on-one coaching?
And just to, you know, battle with a year on, you know, you've had some social media reels go viral, millions of views, which we're going to talk about today. You've started building a team. You have another coach now, sales rep. You're starting to, so you're able to help more people and obviously make more income.
And also obviously bring people on without you having to do all the selling, the onboarding and the coaching, which must be a nice feat. Yes, it is. It is. And then also, you're now in a great place, which most people never get to, where you actually have a consistent lead flow coming from the ad side versus hustling organically, referrals, affiliates, which is how most people kind of get stuck.
Chapter 6: How can I use organic content to grow my brand?
So what's that year-long journey been like for you?
Well, I remember one of the first things you ever said, one of the first events I went to, and you said, you know, you want to help people, you can become a paramedic. Or you can build a hospital. Yeah. And I'm like, I need to build a hospital. I said that? You did. That's a good quote. Yeah, yeah. So that's what I'm doing now. I'm building the hospital. Yeah, yeah.
Chapter 7: What role do controversial reels play in social media engagement?
Yeah, I have a whole staff now, coaches, marketers, you know, just keeping that organic content going. But I'm doing paid advertising now. But it really took me getting that staff. Yeah. I couldn't do it on my, you know, on my own anymore. I mean, again, I was seeing 35 clients a week. There was no time to do much of anything else.
Well, and now you're, you know, I think we all start, a lot of us, at least coaching wise, we start as experts and people that want to help. Right. And it's like, hey, if you help 35 people a week, it's not that many people. Right. You are making a massive impact at a deep level. But now like you have a couple of, you know, reels to get millions of views.
Chapter 8: How can I hire the right team members to diversify my services?
Obviously, you're not coaching them, but you're helping thousands or hundreds of thousands of people watching that, right? Giving them hope or an idea. And sometimes it's like that drop in the ocean that creates now this ripple effect with me as people. And then obviously now you're building out courses and live Zoom options where you can help one to many versus one to one.
So, you know, how's that felt being able to reach and help more people?
It's amazing. It's an amazing feeling to get messages and emails and testimonials that say, you know, we're still married because of you. You know, I didn't lose my kids 50% of the time because we worked with you. And the more people I can do that with, my gosh, I mean, it's just, it's changing generations.
Yeah. And it's important work because not many people do what you do. That is correct. Do you want to just, if someone didn't pick up on it, recap what you do? Sure.
Yeah, absolutely. So I work with couples who are going through betrayal, which is just about the worst thing you can go through as a married couple. And, you know, the statistics out there are just through the roof. Divorce rates, especially because of infidelity in a marriage. So basically what I'm doing is working with couples, but I'm turning the whole counseling thing on its head.
Most people go to marriage counseling. Because they think there's a problem in the marriage and that's why somebody stepped out. But that's not it. It really isn't about the marriage. So I'm really bringing to market, thanks to you and your team as well, you know, this whole new concept of how to actually heal. And save marriages after betrayal.
Yeah, that's great. And, and I think it's cool having that niche because yeah, like you say, there's not many options, right? You got the typical, like, you know, obviously most people break up there and, and maybe, you know, some therapy and stuff, but I think it's much needed. And yeah,
I think being able to build your brand and make you that go to person is going to help you change thousands of lives. So I would love to break down the steps now. Right. So let's rewind a year. You came in, you're doing all your calls. And I remember when we started working together the first few months, it's like, hey, these are all the things we want to do.
But you're very stuck on like, but I got all these clients that I need to serve. So someone's listening in the same manner right now where they're like in that same position. They want to start working on the company, not in the company, which is why most entrepreneurs go wrong or at least get stuck in that phase. I wouldn't say it's wrong.
