It feels rather repetitive but it’s true, when Covid hit we all had to figure out a new plan. For Belinda Furneaux-Harris that meant taking her brick and mortar business and moving it online. To do this, she knew she needed support, so she joined us in our I Heart Coaching program.
Belinda was already extremely successful in her business, but moving online requires a different set of skills, so she dug in. She has now successfully created two courses that will be launching soon and changed the model of her business from in-person to online. She joined me to chat all about what it took to pivot and why she knows it was the right decision for her business.
“When you uncover what sits at the heart of your brand, you’re really looking at what sits at the heart of you.” -Belinda Harris
Prior to starting her business, Belinda had a long history of work in the corporate world. She had no entrepreneurial background, but she knew there had to be a better way. She was burnt out, in adrenal fatigue, and exhausted. Essentially she was over corporate.
She took her knowledge of personal branding and career advancement and began helping others to create personal brands that helped elevate their careers. She is now a branding and marketing coach and still helps the corporate world through consulting and workshops.
Listen in as she shares why I Heart Coaching was the right choice for her when she decided to move her business online and why she credits the program with her online success. She’s digging deep into the behind the scenes of the program and why it worked better than any other program she’s taken.
Belinda’s drive for excellence revealed itself at a very early age and it’s that knowing and clarity that has helped her create a life better than her dreams. What would your dream life look like? Are you ready to make it a reality?

Quotes:
“When you uncover what sits at the heart of your brand, you’re really looking at what sits at the heart of you.” – Belinda Harris
“Get really, really clear about what you want. So when I was 14 years old I made a vow to myself that I was going to live an extraordinary life not an ordinary life, and I got really clear, even at 14, about the woman I wanted to become. And I made it happen.” – Belinda Harris
