Unexpected Business Lessons from a Physical Therapist & Coach | Jen Uschold
How Chronic Pain Management Offers Lessons for Your Coaching Business
In this episode of the Business Bravery Podcast, I chat with physical therapist and coach Jen Uschold about why pain doesn’t have to be a life sentence. Jen explains how combining pain science, mindset, and mental fitness helps people manage chronic pain and step back into their lives.
What’s surprising is how many of these lessons also apply to coaches who are growing an online business. From understanding the nervous system to building resilience, there are practical takeaways here that can help you sign clients, grow your coaching business, and stay consistent along the way.
What Coaches Can Learn from Chronic Pain Management
Jen shares how the nervous system works and why education and exercise are game changers in chronic pain management. For coaches, this insight highlights the importance of educating clients, simplifying complex ideas, and showing them how to take action.
As a coach, your business grows when you help people build confidence and make brave choices—just like a physical therapist guiding clients through small, manageable steps.
Balancing an Online Business with Real Life Challenges
This conversation really resonated with me, as I also manage my own chronic pain while balancing my online business. I know how powerful knowledge and mindset can be in creating progress.
Coaches often juggle business growth with personal challenges. Jen’s story shows that it’s possible to keep moving forward, even when life feels heavy. The key is to focus on mindset, resilience, and support systems.
Bravery in Business: Jen’s Personal Story
Jen opened up about her own journey of bravery—navigating a tough divorce, investing in her online business, and stepping onto new stages to spread her message. She shows what’s possible when you’re willing to be brave, even when the path feels uncertain.
Her story is a reminder that coaches building an online business or signing their first paying clients can learn from other industries, lean into mindset, and find a business coach or community that supports their growth.
Networking for Online Business and Building Confidence
Another big theme we discussed was the power of networking for online business. Whether you’re talking with potential clients, sharing your message on social media, or stepping onto a stage, connection is everything.
When you focus on building relationships rather than chasing quick wins, your coaching business becomes more consistent and sustainable.
How to Grow Your Business with Bravery
Whether you’re signing your first coaching clients or creating steady income month after month, bravery is essential. From chronic pain management to business growth, the lesson is the same: knowledge, mindset, and support move you forward.
You don’t have to do it alone—find a business coach, connect with a supportive community, and take brave action in your coaching business.
