If you're struggling to get clients and you've done every ideal client exercise in the book, this episode is going to show you why those exercises might be part of the problem — and what actually turns people into clients.

In this episode you'll learn:

  • Where the dream client concept came from and how manifestation culture infected a legitimate marketing tool

  • Why the dream client framework strips real people of their agency — and what that's costing you

  • The entitlement problem nobody talks about: how the dream client produces coaches and service providers who resent their actual clients for not being fictional enough

  • Why dreaming about clients and getting clients are two completely different activities

  • Nikki's tool for getting specific about who your person is without projecting

  • What to do instead of building an avatar: the two things that actually turn people into clients
