Donna Karaba - PASSION PURPOSE PROFIT: 9 Keys to Building an Authentic Executive Coaching Business

This book arrived at a time when I wanted to take my coaching business to a different level, and I am 100 percent dedicated to learn new tools and theories. The authentic model is a step-by-step guide to create an executive coaching business. The author tells her personal story in such a way that it captures your attention from the beginning, but she also gives client stories as examples of how to implement the tools. This book contains all the little secrets not only to coach executives but also to understand better what it is that you want and how important it is to work on yourself as well.

Passion Purpose Profit is a book that give readers permission to pursue their goal of finding meaningful work while balancing work and home life. It is geared toward those who see coaching as that meaningful work, and it offers a program by which to start a coaching practice. The client stories shared throughout marvelously illustrate practical applications and demonstrate how coaching can help people lead authentic lives. Donna provides some of her own journal entries as lessons to be learned while starting your own coaching business.

Robert Karaba, PhD, New Mexico Highlands University

Donna has lived her successes and thats why her stories ring with power. Some sole proprietors dont realize they put more time into finding clients than actually delivering the service itself. I can see people using these principles in their own business to find clarity and wisdom from the nitty-gritty, daily mode of operations, to the motivational juice necessary to cope with everyday challenges. Being an entrepreneur, I was inspired to take action immediately on principles delivered in this substance-laden book.

Passion Purpose Profit was an enjoyable read. I liked the practicality of the book clearly laying out steps for the process of starting your own coaching career. Donna Karabas willingness to share from her personal experience especially speaks to me. The best part of the book is that the author is clearly a truly caring person who honestly wants to be of help to others. She sincerely believes tapping into your passion and making it work for you is the best way to go about it. Her willingness to share the obstacles she has overcome, both professionally and personally, is a testament to a remarkable woman.
