The hard truth: If you're trying to help everyone with your online program, you're actually helping no one—and it's killing your business before it even starts.

You've got years of training and could help SO many people. But when you try to market to "everyone," your message becomes so vanilla that nobody feels seen. Those perfect clients? They're hiring someone who spoke directly to their specific pain.


In this game-changing episode, you'll discover:

  • Why "I help people with anxiety" guarantees invisibility (with cringe-worthy examples)
  • The Identity Trap: Why "moms" isn't a niche and demographics don't buy programs
  • The math proving specificity INCREASES income (one student went from $97 to $5K programs)
  • My 3-Question Clarity Check to know if your niche is specific enough
  • The Step-Down Method: How to narrow focus without panic
  • Why trying to serve everyone is actually UNETHICAL
  • Real before-and-after examples showing the difference between noise and clarity


Key Mindset Shifts:

✓ Specificity is service, not selfishness
✓ You're not abandoning people—you're becoming excellent for the RIGHT people
✓ The market rewards clarity, not capability
✓ The narrower you go, the bigger you grow
