My 2025 Coaching Book Club List
The ultimate book guide for women coaches, moms building businesses and purpose-driven entrepreneurs.
As a mompreneur and coach myself, I know firsthand that running a business while raising a family takes an insane amount of heart, energy, strategy and let’s be honest coffee. Lots of coffee.
But do you know what else it takes?
Mindset. Mentorship. Mastery. And the willingness to grow even when life feels beautifully chaotic.
That’s exactly why my coaching book club has become one of my favorite parts of every month. It keeps me grounded, inspired, and always learning. And this year (2025!), we dove into some incredible business coaching books—books that have shaped my mindset, strengthened my leadership and helped me grow as a mom, woman, entrepreneur and coach.
So today, I am sharing my full 2025 list of the Best Books on Business Coaching for Mompreneurs—one from each month of my book club. These books are packed with mindset breakthroughs, sales shifts, energetic strategies, leadership tools and mom-life empowerment to help you fine tune that coaching habit.
Whether you are a life coach, business coach, mindset coach, or a multi-passionate mompreneur, these books will elevate your confidence, your brand, your impact and your income.
Let’s dive in—month by month.
January: Mindset by Carol Dweck
The perfect book to kick off the year.
If you are a coach or mompreneur, you already know that mindset is everything. But Dweck breaks it down in a way that makes you see exactly where you have been holding yourself back and how your “fixed” beliefs may be limiting your business growth. This classic book explores the difference between a fixed mindset (believing your abilities are set) and a growth mindset (believing you can improve through effort). It’s foundational with practical examples for personal development and coaching.
Why Mompreneurs Love It
Because motherhood teaches us growth daily — and business does too. This book helps women release perfectionism and embrace learning as part of the process.
You finally understand why you procrastinate (it’s not laziness…it’s fear).
You start spotting growth-mindset opportunities everywhere—especially in parenting.
It helps you show up as a more empowering coach for your clients.
Best Coaching Takeaway
Your beliefs shape your results. If you want to grow your business, you have to grow your inner world. Growth happens through action, experimentation, and feedback — not perfection. "Effort ignites ability!"
My Personal Lesson
I solidified my belief that all things are possible and anyone can learn anything. Using the grow model, I can continually become the prosperous coach I know I am capable of.
How to Apply This to Your Business
Launch before you feel ready
Celebrate progress, not outcomes
Normalize trying again
Build resilience through small daily actions
Become a forever student
Mindset is the foundation of momentum. Anyone can learn anything. This revolutionary approach to personal growth can help you build a successful coaching business.
February: Rich as F by Amanda Frances
A vibe. A mood. A money activation.
February is the month we step into abundance, and Amanda Frances holds nothing back. Her approach to wealth, worthiness, and receiving is the perfect match for women coaches who want to expand energetically while scaling their income. This bold, empowering book is the ultimate guide on rewriting your money story and elevating your wealth frequency.
Why Mompreneurs Love It
Because we have been conditioned to feel guilty about wanting more money — especially as moms. This book flips that script.
It blends spiritual money mindset with practical energy work.
You begin seeing money as a neutral tool—never something to fear.
It encourages unapologetic confidence (something moms in business desperately need).
Best Coaching Takeaway
Your financial reality is shaped by what you believe you are allowed to have. Your beliefs about money directly shape your income and your sales confidence.
My Personal Lesson
I didn’t realize how much inherited money guilt I was still carrying. This book helped me rewrite my financial identity over and over. As new levels are reached, new levels are tested time and time again. It is a constant journey to build a relationship with our money.
How to Apply This to Your Business
Sell from aligned confidence
Raise your prices when your value expands
Let wealth feel normal
Release guilt around wanting more
Recognize doubts around money as just past stories
You can be a loving mom and a wealthy one by creating a safe space to really address your fears and feelings around money. You have to change your beliefs in order to be ready to receive.
If you are a coach, you will LOVE this one.
This is an excellent book that digs deep into transformational coaching, emotional intelligence, and how people actually change—not from pressure, but from inspiration. It’s science-backed, heart-centered, and perfect for sharpening your coaching skills. A professional growth coaching book and practical guide on how people truly grow — through compassion, not compliance.
Why Mompreneurs Love It
Shows how to be a great coach without burning out.
Teaches you to guide clients through long-term change.
Helps you create more connected, supportive relationships by asking the right questions.
It reinforces that coaching isn’t about fixing people — it’s about helping them unlock their own potential using powerful asking skills.
Best Coaching Takeaway
Transformation comes from tapping into a person’s dreams, not their problems. True sustainable change and their greatest human potential comes from compassion, not criticism.
My Personal Lesson
I learned to ask better questions and trust my clients’ inner wisdom more than my urge to “solve” things. Every coaching session should include just me listening. "Mine for gold, don't dig for dirt."
How to Apply This to Your Business
Create vision-based coaching sessions
Use positive psychology
Ask high-quality questions
Focus on the client’s desired future
Inspiration is the real reason people are motivated to change.
The mompreneur classic—because who doesn't want more time?
While we may not literally work four hours (LOL, my laundry alone takes more time than that), this book reframes how we see productivity, outsourcing, and lifestyle design. This comprehensive guide on teaching automation, outsourcing, systems, and time freedom is for every successful business.
Why Mompreneurs Love It
More freedom.
Better systems.
Permission to simplify and streamline.
Because hustle culture doesn’t work for moms. We need sustainable (and simple) systems that speak to the heart of laser-focused coaching with practical advice.
Best Coaching Takeaway
Your business should run through systems — not your constant effort.
You don’t need to “do it all.” You need streamlined systems that support your dream life.
My Personal Lesson
I learned I didn’t need to do EVERYTHING myself. I could automate, simplify and delegate, especially if I want to reach the next level in my coaching practice. "You have to BE a millionaire, before you can make millions."
How to Apply This to Your Business
Automate your onboarding
Batch your content
Delegate repetitive tasks
Protect your time boundaries
Work smarter, not harder, especially as a mom.
This one is a must for coaches selling programs, courses, or 1:1 coaching. A transformative take on selling through energy, confidence, alignment, and belief — not pressure.

Why Mompreneurs Love It
It makes selling feel natural (not icky).
Shows you how to tap into the energetics behind conversion.
Helps you sign clients with confidence.
Because selling feels easier when you are not forcing it or overthinking it.
Best Coaching Takeaway
As an effective coach, sales is a transfer of belief — the more grounded you are, the easier clients say yes. Sales is an energy exchange—your value speaks louder than your script.
My Personal Lesson
I realized how often I was selling from fear instead of confidence. Once my energy shifted, everything clicked.
How to Apply This to Your Business
Speak confidently about your work
Release attachment to outcomes
Sell naturally through storytelling
Believe deeply in your offer
Your energy is your greatest sales strategy. Thinking about your beliefs and energy around selling from a holistic approach can change the way you lead forever.
Leadership + honesty = business magic. A powerful leadership book about giving clear feedback with kindness and confidence.
Radical Candor shows you how to lead with kindness and clarity with lots of great examples.
