Show notes

On this episode, Tobi meets Julika Franke for a coaching demo that starts as brand positioning and quickly turns into imposter syndrome coaching around stepping into a coach‑trainer role. Julika usually uses her Business Hub approach to map roles, goals, and visibility, revealing to come up with clear positioning and a crisp mission. In Tobi's example they find a way to fit all his hats under the vision statement of metaFox: "A world embracing emotional intelligence".


Key Learnings:

  • How a vision statement can serve as north star and unify different roles.
  • How Julika defines a founder‑level role map (visionary, product developer, ambassador, trainer).
  • How this kind of positioning work can be an alternative to mindset coaching for overcoming imposter syndrome.
