EP 16: When Is It Time to Find a Mentor with Amanda Cooke

See this content in the original post

“If I reach out for help, people will know that I don’t have it all together.”

Have you ever thought this way? I know I have. And guess what? No one has it all together! We ALL need help at some point in our business journey.

You might be asking yourself, when is it time to find a mentor? This week, I’m joined by massage therapist and owner/continuing education provider at Co-Ed Institute, Amanda Cooke.

I’ve always admired the way that Amanda gives sound, actionable advice, and I’m excited for you to listen to her tips on this week’s episode.

Plus, we bond about overcoming our shared fear of public speaking (or at least mostly overcoming it).


“Don’t expect that you know how to do everything. If there’s something you need to get to that next level, and you need help, there are ALWAYS people who can help you get there. You just have to find who resonates with you.”


This week on the Do It With Intention Podcast:

  • How being a jack-of-all-trades makes you a master-of-none, and why Amanda recommends expanding your current knowledge to gain confidence instead of learning entirely new modalities.

  • Why a “pull yourself up by your bootstraps” mindset can limit you from making progress, and how early you should ask someone for help so that you can avoid wasting time.

  • The two necessary steps you need to take when you’re going out on your own to allow yourself to focus on your strengths and build a business that will work for YOU.
