Step Into Who You Are Meant to Be! - YB Coaching
Interested in starting your own entrepreneurial journey in personal development but unsure what to expect? Then read up on our interview with Yanet Borrego, Founder of YB Coaching LLC., located in Houston, TX, USA.
What's your business, and who are your customers?
I am a mindset and clarity coach. I coach driven professionals on bridging the gap between where they are and where they want to be in the areas of career, romantic relationships, and personal development. 80-90% of growth, achievement, success, and fulfillment start with mindset, and 10-20% is strategy. When you have the mindset, you can figure out the strategy, and you can learn any skill. If you have the strategy but not the mindset, it's more challenging to follow through and implement. This is why I am so passionate about coaching my clients, students, and mentees to step into who they're meant to be and achieve their dreams.
My business includes 1:1 coaching where I provide customized support to the individual, a digital course, "Discover Your Purpose Program," with a step-by-step framework on how to gain clarity on your direction and master your mindset, speaking engagements, and a weekly podcast.
I've been extensively certified in Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) and healing arts. My coaching approach is holistic, working with the spiritual, mental, emotional, and physical bodies to create harmony and alignment while sustaining change.
Tell us about yourself
I worked for 9 years in corporate with two wonderful Fortune 500 companies as an Engineer, Supply Chain Expert, and Management & Strategy Consultant. In those 9 years, I also built my coaching practice on the side, got certified as a coach, speaker, and trainer under the John Maxwell Team, got board certified by the Association for Integrative Psychology as a Master Practitioner, Trainer, and Coach of Neuro-Linguistic Programming and Hypnosis.
I always knew that at some point in my career, I was going to make the transition from corporate to full-time entrepreneurship. My vision was to align my passion and purpose with my career and to coach others to do the same. In March of 2021, a very close family member passed away from cancer, and that event put everything into perspective. What was I waiting for? What was I afraid of? Life is so short, and the only moment we have is now. In April of 2021, I took the decision to leave my 9 years of corporate career and pursue something that I truly believed in. I turned my side hustle, coaching, into my full-time career.
I fully embraced my identity as a Clarity & Mindset Coach, Speaker, and Trainer after leaving my corporate job. I am very passionate about helping people find clarity & direction, master their mindset, and create a life on their own terms. Coaching is an inside-out journey, and it's very action-oriented. As a coach, I have the tools and techniques to help my clients access the answers within themselves and master their inner world. Experiencing the transformation in my clients and creating a legacy of impact is what motivates me every day to do what I do.
What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?
Living in integrity. As a coach, it is very important that I show up in alignment with how I coach my clients. Every skill, concept, and technique that I teach them, I practice myself.
What's one of the hardest things that comes with being a business owner?
Being resilient and believing in yourself and your ability to create a positive impact in this world. As a business owner, having hope in the process is very important because, many times, you have an idea, and you have to allow flexibility for the "how" to unfold. Letting go of the attachment to the outcome is challenging but so important to do.
What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?
- Do not wait for the perfect moment; start right now. Clarity is a byproduct of experimenting and taking action.
- Start talking about your passion with your network, friends, family, and co-workers. They will be key enablers for your business one day.
- Trust your intuition. You already know what the next step is; you just need to take action. When making decisions, rely on your inner wisdom. Asking everyone around for external validation may delay your dreams.
