When we talk to women about offering custom 1-on-1 coaching, one of the first things they usually say is: “I would love that… but I just don’t think I can afford it.”

And we get it. Between PCS moves, kids’ activities, deployments, and the cost of just… life, it feels like adding one more thing to the budget is impossible.

But what these conversations almost always turn into is a moment of realization: they’re already spending the money—just not in ways that actually give them results. Gym memberships that go unused. DoorDash orders that pile up because dinner wasn’t planned. Clothes they’ve had to keep sizing up into every year.

That’s when it clicks. Coaching doesn’t just cost money. It actually saves money—while giving you the confidence, energy, and glow up you’ve been trying to piece together on your own. And we don’t just say that—we asked our current FittCoaching clients how coaching has saved them money. Their answers were eye-opening, and they might sound a lot like your own story.

No More Paying for Things You Don't Use

Raise your hand if you’ve ever signed up for a gym membership, gone for a couple weeks, and then… just kept paying every month out of guilt. (Yep, same.)

The difference with coaching? Accountability. You’re not left to figure it out alone. Your coach checks in, adjusts your plan when life happens, and makes sure you actually use the program you’ve invested in. It’s not just another monthly fee that goes to waste—it’s a plan you’ll stick with because someone’s in your corner.

And here’s another bonus: whatever type of workout you love—strength training, yoga flows, HIIT, even running—your coach can program it into your plan. Instead of paying for multiple memberships or drop-in classes, you get everything customized in one place.

Fewer Random “Quick Fix” Purchases

Think about all the detox teas, fat-burning supplements, or random Amazon fitness gadgets you’ve bought when you were desperate to make a change. We’ve all done it. And it’s money down the drain because none of it works for the long haul. With coaching, you don’t need to waste any more money guessing!

Saving on Groceries & Takeout

This one surprised a lot of our clients, since many people think healthy eats are more expensive! When you’ve got a meal plan and know what you’re eating for the week, you stop leaning on takeout as much. You also stop buying random snacks and extras at the store “just in case.”

No More Buying Bigger Clothes Every Year

We don’t talk about this one enough. Constantly buying bigger pants or new jeans because nothing fits anymore adds up. Staying consistent with your health and fitness means you get to actually enjoy the clothes you already have—and feel good in them.

Long-Term Health = Less Time Out Sick

Getting healthy isn’t just about how you look—it’s about how you feel every day. When your body is run down, it costs you in missed work, lost time, and just not having the energy to do the things you want.

Since starting coaching, so many of our clients have noticed they’re not getting sick as often, they recover faster, and they’ve got way more energy to keep up with life. Some have even been able—always with their doctor’s guidance—to come off medications for things like high blood pressure, diabetes, and even liver-related issues.

That’s the kind of change you can’t really put a price tag on.

Oh, and Time = Money Too

Endless Googling workouts, scrolling for “the best diet,” starting over every Monday… that’s not free. That’s your time and energy. A coach hands you a clear plan so you can stop spinning your wheels and just get results.

The Real Glow Up

At the end of the day, coaching isn’t about spending money—it’s about spending smarter. You stop wasting cash on stuff that doesn’t work, and you finally invest in something that gives you energy, confidence, and results.

It’s the kind of glow up you’ll feel in your body, your budget, and your everyday life.

✨ So next time you wonder if coaching is “too expensive,” flip the question: how much is it costing you not to do it? If you're ready for invest in a one-on-one coaching program that includes:
