From Scratch Business Stories

How A Critical Illness Transformed Ruth Gilbey’s Coaching Business

Welcome to From Scratch Business Stories, where I’m interviewing tenacious business-builders about getting the balance right between loving life right now, while striving for a better future.

In this episode, Ruth Gilbey, founder of the Online Business Blueprint shares how a critical illness diagnosis forced her to become more visible online and make the move from freelancer to business owner.

We also talked about:
- What kept her stuck as a frustrated freelancer and how she moved onto the next phase of her business
- How she transitioned from a one-to-one to a one-to-many business model, with the blessing and encouragement of her existing clients
- The many unexpected, but very welcome, side effects to running her own business
