The Power of Hiring the Right Coach and Mentor for Your Business, Career, or Ministry
The worst mistake you can do in this industry is tackle everything alone. Learn how to secure the right support so your vision flourishes.
Greetings Beloved,
Welcome to My Beloved Women’s Weekly, the #1 publication that teaches women how to flourish in business, ministry, motherhood, and marriage.
If you are brand new to my platform, allow me to introduce myself.
I am Coach Felecia Killings, the Founder and CEO of The Felecia Killings Foundation and the Principal Coach of My Beloved Women’s Ministry.
At The Felecia Killings Foundation, we know how vital women are to the Kingdom of God.
We understand their role and position, and we empower them to function fully in their grace so their lives are changed for the better.
But often times, women encounter traumatic hardships that destroy their confidence, self-worth, and future calling. From domestically violent relationships to sexual assaults, some women struggle to rebuild their lives once they've been violated.
This is not God's purpose for His daughters.
Therefore, at The Foundation, we purpose to help these women transform from the inside out. We empower them to blossom in their calling as they build social, political, and economic empires in this new decade based on Kingdom principles.
At MBWM, our vision is to be the premier hub for new and aspiring creative women who want to manifest their greatness using the written and spoken word. We also provide the nation's leading ministry that helps single mothers rebuild their lives after experiencing trauma.
Our mission is to empower 1,000,000 women leaders online with an exclusive, premium experience that helps each one build, launch, and scale their online business or virtual ministry using their story and expertise, no matter how hard or scandalous their experience has been.
We accomplish this mission by providing advanced training solutions through our products and services including our weekly publication, bi-annual women’s retreats, weekly virtual Bible studies, and our one-to-one coaching program.
Through this network, my guest coaches and I help women experience spiritual, emotional, mental, financial, and physical healing.
Women in our virtual ministry receive lessons that teach them:
How to fight for their healing while possessing it for a lifetime
How to know the Holy Spirit intimately so He empowers them for great success
How to use the virtual space to create new career opportunities
How to build healthy relationships and strong social empires
How to strengthen themselves as mothers while caring for their children
How to strengthen themselves as wives while submitting to their husbands
How to thrive as a co-parents and/or single mothers
And so much more!
Felecia has always been an award-winning coach. She taught me to stand up in my truth and to be okay with it. She didn't judge me. I will never forget the love and nurture that she extended to me over the years. All that she taught me is what I do in my business/ministry, sharing the same love to others to seek all that God has intended for them, according to His purpose.

Now let’s jump into today’s teaching.
The Power of Hiring the Right Coach and Mentor for Your Business, Career, or Ministry
Let me begin this discussion with a clear definition of a mentor and coach.
Mentor: A trusted counselor or guide (merriam-webster.com)
Coach: One who instructs or trains (merriam-webster.com)
The term I want to highlight in this lesson is "guide."
A mentor is not one who uses her knowledge to make herself look good. Her role and function is to help her student or client achieve success.
One of the influencers I follow, Donald Miller, discusses this concept heavily with his online business, StoryBrand. Miller encourages businesses to step away from telling their own stories to gain customers, and to start telling the stories of their customers, who are essentially the heroes in every marketing campaign.
The same concept can be applied to mentorship.
When working with my clients as a coach or mentor, one of the first questions I ask is, "What are your goals and vision for your writing ministry?”
This question helps me better understand their vision and needs.
It's not my job to tell them how successful I am and how I continue to achieve success.
I'm not the hero in their story.
I'm simply the guide who will lead them to their destination; and once they reach that place, they can help others along their journey.
You will notice, mentorship and coaching involve elements of teaching. And I believe this is why this service comes naturally to me. I've been teaching people for more than 20 years (as of this post, I'm 39-years-old).
Mentoring is not just about encouraging my clients or inspiring them with thoughtful suggestions; it also entails helping them develop a strategic plan so they reach their goals on time.
When you think of coaching in terms of sports, it's not enough that a coach tells the team it can win. He must also tell his members HOW to win. And the same idea applies when it comes to developing your business, ministry, or political career.
Acquiring an expert in the field of independent publishing is crucial to your development, especially if authorship will be the hallmark of your platform. Unlike with other fields of study, you can't go to a college to earn a degree in authorship.
But you can work with writing experts who know how to cultivate your skills.
The 4 Benefits of Hiring the Right Book-Publishing Coach
Writerpreneurs who hire a writing coach or mentor see greater success than those who don't have one.
As with any industry, your expertise is built upon the wisdom and knowledge of those already present. The publishing industry, especially the self-publishing segment, is vastly growing. And as more Americans put their stories in book format, having the knowledge to do it the right way will save a new author time and money.
Quite often, writing a book is not the hard part; but turning one’s authorship into a career or ministry is the challenge. And authors who refuse to hire a coach who can help them overcome this challenge often experience failure in their writing ministry.
I know this because I've had scholars come may way who tried to enter this venture on their own, and have yet to make any progress.
But those who have received the educational insight and direction, which I deliver through my 12-month, online coaching program, The Write Conservative, have experienced amazing results.Writerpreneurs who hire a writing coach experience phenomenal qualitative results.
There are elements of the coaching process that help authors discover their self-worth and confidence. This is not something that can be quantified, but it certainly adds to the positive effects of coaching. I have witnessed my share of enthused scholars who were elated by the knowledge and education they received from my online training.
One student, Sarah Adams, testified how coaching empowered her as a new author: “I have grown in confidence since starting the program; now I am empowered as I have tips, strategies, and steps to get the job done. This program has helped me to understand what is needed to become a Christian Author by giving me the information needed, such as the importance of doing your own marketing, developing a business plan, etc.”
Something transformational happens when you obtain the wisdom and insight that maps your journey towards success. And while you can achieve results on your own, hiring the right coach will help you master key principles in a fraction of the time.Writerpreneurs who hire a writing coach are leap years ahead of the average author.
This statement is similar to what I have already discussed. You have to see yourself as a writer who is hidden among millions of other writers. Like you, someone wants to share their story with the world.
But very few authors manifest their dreams because they sow very little into their training. For example, we all know the power of the Internet. We can find just about any information we desire with one simple click. But because the Internet is inundated with knowledge, it's hard to ascertain which content is most fitting to our works.
For this reason, hiring the right coach (who has done the work for you) puts you at an advantage. The cost to find the knowledge has already been paid; all you need to do is pay the price required to receive that knowledge from the expert. (Quite often, the cost to you is minimal compared to the work the expert has invested in acquiring that information.)
Authors who invest in their training surpass average writers simply because they are willing to pay the price for premium knowledge and wisdom. This is why I emphasize to you and to my members in my network that you must take your authorship seriously. You must see yourself as a professional author if you want to thrive in this industry.
And the only way you can cultivate your professionalism is when you make the bold step and invest in your business by acquiring the right writing coach who will help you avoid costly mistakes.Lastly, Writerpreneurs who hire a writing coach demonstrate they truly care about their brand and their audience.
When it comes to creating great content for you and my other readers, I don't rely on my own wisdom and knowledge. I pull from the training I received in college and the knowledge I acquired through my observations and research over the years.
Why?
Because I care that you have the best. I don't want to give you watered-down material. I recognize your success is largely dependent on your ability to have access to empowering material that you can't find easily on the Internet.
In like manner, every Writerpreneur who hires a writing coach proves that her business and audience are important to her. She recognizes that for a small investment, the coach can help her yield an unlimited supply of future readers, clients, and customers.
Here’s Your Takeaway
Your success is dependent on securing the right writing coach or mentor.
You absolutely need one, and you need to add this element to your annual education budget.
At The Foundation, we provide this experience based on a budge that works for you.
All you need to do is take the step of faith and apply.
I pray today’s teaching empowered you.
If you were blessed, donate $25+ towards our women’s ministry. Your contributions help sponsor our weekly lessons. We are able to provide these teachings FREELY to women like you because of our Beloved Givers.
As a token of our appreciation for your generosity, you will receive a $50 gift certificate to shop The Foundation’s Bookstore.
Until next time, Beloved, be blessed.
And as always, let’s grow together!
