About this episode

Mari Wuellner discusses her journey in coaching and the creation of The Crew with Amy Preble.

Mari gets interviewed by Amy Preble (Crew Relationship Coach) on her podcast It's Nothing I'm Fine, and we're sharing the full conversation here. Amy digs into what The Crew actually is - a faculty coaching collective with six expert coaches covering relationships, identity, productivity, health, business, and marketing for $97/month - and why Mari was either gonna pivot to this model or quit coaching altogether. They discuss the frustration with influencer guru culture that gatekeeps coaching for rich white women, why Mari hired coaches she already trusted with her own life and business, and the magic that's happening inside this community that neither of them could have predicted. Plus, the matriarchal energy that lets women do business without posturing, why members can disappear for months and come back to zero judgment, the Eras Tour comparison that actually makes sense, and Mari's confession about when she says "it's nothing, I'm fine" (spoiler: she just exits left when her feelings get hurt).
