How My Passion Became My Profession

You may wonder how you can make your passion for relationships into a full-time profession.

It’s a lot more do-able than you might think, especially as a member of Relationship Coaching Institute. Everyone’s path to a successful relationship coaching business is different and the RCI members below share their story to encourage and inspire you to follow your passion and go for it!

Sheryl Spangler

“Joining RCI has been life changing for me, personally and professionally. When I joined RCI 15 years ago, I was recently separated, living in a new city and I knew that the singles training would help me personally as I was dating for the first time in many years. I had been working as a business coach and not sure at first if I wanted to transition to relationship coaching. As I started networking and telling my story to singles, I learned that many of the folks I met were in my situation and needed help. So, I began my relationship coaching business and quickly built a sustainable business helping singles over 40 find love.”

“The Conscious Dating®️ singles program works so well to help singles discover who they are, who they’re looking for and how/where to find that person. Since Conscious Dating®️ is a structured program, it’s easy for a new coach to confidently start working with clients. As for me, I used the Conscious Dating®️ techniques to find my soul mate, and that made my story even more powerful! Helping singles find love feeds my soul. I can’t imagine doing anything else!”
