Join host Julie Riga as she sits down with Caterina Rando, mentor extraordinary for women in business, to uncover the fastest path from speaking to clients. Discover why speaking beats social media for service-based entrepreneurs, learn Caterina's "sales fountain" approach that keeps clients coming back, and find out how she generates multiple five-figure sales from a single retreat.


In this episode, you'll learn the three types of clients (Insta-clients, slow cookers, and super slow cookers), why "at the thing you always offer the next thing," and how to leave every audience more uplifted than when they arrived. Caterina shares her proven strategies for building profitable retreat experiences, the importance of follow-up conversations, and why monthly virtual workshops should be standard operating procedure for every entrepreneur.


Whether you're looking to accelerate client acquisition, build deeper relationships with your audience, or create transformational retreat experiences, this episode delivers actionable insights for women entrepreneurs and service-based business owners ready to turn their speaking into a client-generation machine.

Julie Riga has spent years in the trenches as a leadership coach, entrepreneur, and author, and she knows a secret: the path to success is often cluttered with internal roadblocks. In her Stay On Course: Ingredients for Success podcast, she moves beyond surface-level advice to explore the real, often unspoken, ingredients that sustain leaders. Each conversation is built for those who are outwardly accomplished-CEOs, managers, or driven entrepreneurs-but who sometimes wrestle privately with doubts about their direction, their decisions, or their ability to truly lead. Julie brings a certified coach's perspective to these universal challenges, dissecting the mindset shifts and practical frameworks that create lasting confidence and control. You'll hear honest discussions about transitioning from a hands-on operator to an inspirational leader, managing the weight of responsibility, and cultivating a vision that feels both ambitious and authentic. This isn't about quick fixes; it's about building a resilient foundation for your career and ventures. Tune in for a blend of personal reflection, actionable strategies, and the kind of clarity that helps high-achievers not just reach their goals, but enjoy the journey there. The entire archive of this podcast offers a deep resource for anyone committed to growing their influence and impact in business and beyond.
