What is an accountability coach?
In essence an accountability coach is there to provide support, guidance and peer pressure that holds people accountable to take specific action to achieve their goals.
Many people think of accountability coaching as having an ass kicker shouting at you to do something and then berate you when you don’t do it.

An accountability coach guides and supports areas of your business you want to grow. My accountability coaching helps entrepreneurs stay focused on their goals. Weekly accountability meetings provide perspective and increase focus and productivity.
