Stop worrying about what to do. Start taking action.
You've climbed the corporate ladder. You have the credentials. You even have your coaching certification or a plan to get certified.
But there's one problem: you're still stuck in that corner office, wondering how to actually build a coaching business that replaces your corporate income.
The brutal truth? Most executives who attempt the corporate-to-coach transition fail—not because they lack coaching skills, but because they're missing the strategic business framework that turns coaching passion into profitable reality.
Real Corporate to Coach® Graduate Results
"I have more confidence in the business development and operations for my launching business. I have the tools I need to understand what pipeline management looks like, and how to manage my time and capacity, so business building feels less overwhelming."
— Michelle
- Michelle, Former Healthcare VP
"I wasn't even sure if I would be a good fit for this work as I don't come from a corporate background. Elissa assured me that my gifts and experience would be welcome, and she was absolutely right. I have felt welcome, and I'm so glad she encouraged me to not count myself out. I cannot recommend Corporate to Coach™ enough. Something I didn't anticipate is how much more energy I have for my practice thanks to the work."
- Ken, Doctor of Ministry in Leadership, Duke Divinity School
"I was on the verge of starting my coaching career but had no idea where to begin in building my business. The program spoke to me immediately — a practical, pragmatic roadmap filled with everything you need to know to support yourself as a solopreneur. I learned so much in just six weeks and left feeling prepared, inspired, and grateful. Run, don't walk — take the class."
- Ivana, Former Advertising SVP & CHIEF member

Twenty years climbing the Fortune 100 ladder — including a role as Chief Product Officer of a $4 billion insurance company — and I walked away to build something of my own.
Using my background in risk management, I created a framework that generated six-figure revenue in my first year as an entrepreneur. That framework became Corporate to Coach®, a program designed to help executives like you turn your corporate experience into a thriving coaching business.
I'm not just another business coach. I've sat in your chair, felt your fears, and made the leap successfully. I know how to speak your language — because it used to be mine.
Elissa Kelly, PCC | Founder, Corporate to Coach®
