Welcome to Maestro on the Mic, a podcast that helps online business owners find their passion, deepen their impact, and build a life that they love. I'm your host, Dr. Shanté Cofield, aka The Movement Maestro, and I’m stoked to have you here. I hope this podcast inspires you make moves and do the thing. Action is the answer.
Starting over is never really starting over—you always carry your past experiences with you. So when you’re feeling the urge to start over, lean in. I’ll never advocate for burning your life down without any safety precautions, but if you’re craving something new, you’ll never know if it can turn into something more unless you […]
Listen to the PodcastLex and I are back from our trip to Gstaad, where we spent a week watching a professional beach volleyball tournament, and what a trip it was! If you’re here just for business advice, you might want to tune out for this episode, but y’all know I always have a few life lessons and reflections […]
Listen to the PodcastEverything you say—even if you’ve said it a million times—will always be new to someone. It’s a simple enough statement, but it’s so easy to forget just how true it is. When you’ve talked and talked about a concept or idea for a while, it feels obvious to you, but every single one of us […]
Listen to the PodcastI love getting ads online, but when I say ads I mean the kind showing me some shorts I’d like to buy, not the kind that tell me my business sucks and I need to hire a coach to make it suck less. Coaching is great—I am one!—but there are people out there that sow […]
Listen to the PodcastWhen the work is as shitty as it is right now, how the hell do you get the people around you to start caring? Well, you don’t. You can’t! It’s frustrating and at times demoralizing, but y’all know I’m all about taking ownership of what you CAN control, instead of allowing yourself to become a […]
Listen to the PodcastIn the same way that history is written by the victors, the social narrative gets decided by the best storyteller. The way the story gets told changes the way that the story is received, which directly effects the outcome of any given situation. When liars, racists, or any other genre of assholes are telling the […]
Listen to the PodcastRunning an online business sometimes feels like like walking to and from your destination uphill, both ways. This shit takes a hell of a lot of work and—especially at the beginning of your journey—often the amount of work you’re putting in doesn’t feel commensurate with the amount of money you’re making. I won’t lie, all […]
Listen to the PodcastIt’s summer and if there’s one piece of advice you should take from me, it’s this: your work can wait. Every summer, things start to slow down, and I think you should be one of them. Summer is for being present and savoring all the little moments. So maybe put a pause on your next […]
Listen to the PodcastWhoever came up with the idea to “charge your worth” didn’t know what the hell they were talking about. I’m it’s well intentioned and it’s a saying to encourage others to charge more for their services, but “worth” is something ill-defined and highly subjective. Wouldn’t it be better to charge what you need? Because damn […]
Listen to the PodcastSo you’ve launched your product for the first time… now what? Knowing what to do next after a launch depends on a ton of different factors—namely, was it even successful? I can’t pretend to know the exact strategy your business needs (you can book a one-on-one call with me to figure that out), but for […]
Listen to the PodcastIn your business, in your activism, and in your life, you can’t do it all. As a business coach, I’m always telling people to niche down and to focus on one thing at a time, and I know how impossible that feels. When you do a lot of things and you care about a lot […]
Listen to the PodcastThe world doesn’t need another Joe Rogan. But that doesn’t mean podcasts are dead, and it doesn’t mean what you have to say is unimportant, either. There are plenty of podcasts out there, but only a small portion of those are actually GOOD, and an even smaller portion of those ever make it past 100 […]
