You're not the only one who's had enough.
Life Coaches face unique challenges: Managing session packages (6-session, 12-session programs). Acuity and Calendly don't track remaining sessions in a package. Clients rescheduling constantly because 'life coaching' isn't seen as a hard appointment. Converting discovery calls to paying clients without a proper CRM. On top of all that, Acuity Scheduling charges $34/month ($408/year) — money that comes directly from your revenue. The median life coach earns $42,000/year. Software at $408/year is a meaningful percentage of that income, every year, forever. And you do not own anything.
Your Zoom or video conferencing setup is yours. You bought it once. Nexa works the same way — $279 once for invoicing, scheduling, CRM, time tracking, and full accounting. All connected. All offline-capable. You own it like you own your tools.
Acuity Scheduling is just one piece. What else are you losing money on?

My clients come in on three-month packages, one session every week or two, usually by video. The first session is intake: where they are, where they want to be, and what's been getting in the way, and we agree specific goals so we both know what progress looks like. Each session after that follows up on what they committed to last time, digs into what got in the way, and ends with the next concrete step. Between sessions many clients message me with a win or a setback, and those short replies are part of the job. I keep notes on every session so I can spot patterns they can't see yet. Coaching isn't therapy, and I'm clear about where it stops: if a client is dealing with depression, trauma or a crisis, I refer them to a licensed therapist. Most of my new clients come from free discovery calls, workshops and referrals, so a chunk of every week goes to marketing. I take payment up front for packages or in monthly instalments, and I track renewals because a returning client is worth far more than a new one.
