Coaching for Entrepreneurs.

Get More Clients.
Keep Those Clients.

It's not what you know. It's what you say.

Getting clients is harder than ever. Keeping them doesn't have to be. I work with entrepreneurs on the gap between what they say and what their clients hear. When a prospect goes quiet, a client says no, or a conversation catches you off guard, we work on how you respond and what you say next.

Quantum Leap Mastery brings emotional intelligence into the conversations and relationships that help your business grow.

Watch Audrey's intro
Audrey Schnell, Ph.D.

"The universe kept opening doors. I just kept walking through them."

That line is the short version of my whole story. I have an M.A. in Clinical Psychology and a Ph.D. in Epidemiology and Biostatistics, and I've spent over 40 years studying why and how people actually change. The science is real. So is the part most experts won't say out loud. I work with both.

I help entrepreneurs handle the conversations that affect their business. A prospect stops replying. A client challenges your recommendation. You hear no and struggle to respond. We look at what happened, how you responded, and how to communicate more clearly with potential and existing clients.

I've spoken at retreats, guested on dozens of podcasts, and founded five online summits with 20+ top experts in healing and peak performance. I live off the grid on 117 acres in rural West Virginia with my husband and our dogs, which tells you most of what you need to know about how I feel about doing things the conventional way.

Questions people actually ask.

How can emotional intelligence help me get and keep clients?+

Emotional intelligence helps you recognize your reactions and respond more thoughtfully in conversations. We apply that to reaching out, following up, and working with existing clients, including the conversations that catch you off guard.

What is an emotional blind spot?+

An emotional blind spot is a pattern in your behavior, reactions, or decisions that you have trouble seeing clearly. It can show up in the choices you make about your business, the conversations you avoid, or the projects you keep delaying. Recognizing it helps you see what's influencing your next move.

How is this different from therapy?+

Our coaching work focuses on your business and client relationships. We explore your responses and practice applying emotional intelligence to real conversations and decisions. Coaching has a different purpose and scope from mental health treatment.

What can we work on together?+

We can work on what happens when a prospect stops replying, you hear no, a client questions your recommendation, or you need to have a difficult conversation. We focus on understanding your response and choosing your next step.

Who is this coaching for?+

I work with entrepreneurs who want to get new clients and keep the clients they have. If you want to handle client conversations more clearly and use emotional intelligence in your business, we can discuss whether my coaching is a fit.
