“Coaching Isn’t a Cost, It’s an Investment”—Why Kevin Weir Says Owners Get $4 for Every $1
Cut The Tie Podcast with Kevin Weir
What happens when fear of sales, fear of risk, and fear of decisions hold you back from your calling? In this episode of Cut The Tie, Thomas Helfrich sits down with Kevin Weir, business coach with ActionCOACH Business Coaching, to talk about cutting ties with false security, overcoming fear, and learning that success comes from clarity, commitment, and consistent execution.
About Kevin Weir:
Kevin Weir began his career through ROTC and the Army, expecting a 30–year military career. After the Cold War ended, he pivoted into corporate America—only to realize it wasn’t aligned with his purpose. Today, as a coach with ActionCOACH in Spokane, Washington, Kevin helps small and medium-sized business owners build companies that thrive without them. With a balance of teaching, motivation, and accountability, he empowers owners to break cycles of fear and excuses while scaling sustainably.
In this episode, Thomas and Kevin discuss:
- The three essentials of coaching
Why every business owner needs a teacher, a motivator, and a butt kicker. - Cutting ties with false security
How leaving behind “safe” W-2 jobs revealed the true illusion of stability. - Overcoming a fanatical fear of sales
The mindset shifts Kevin had to make to step into entrepreneurship. - The faith to trust the process
Why belief in yourself, your system, and your calling is the foundation of growth. - The lesson of decision-making
Why “you can never change your mind until you make it up the first time” transformed his coaching and his life.
Key Takeaways:
- False safety is still unsafe. A paycheck doesn’t guarantee stability.
- Fear is the biggest tie. You can’t scale until you face it head-on.
- Decisions create freedom. Indecision keeps you stuck in cycles.
- Coaching is an investment. For every dollar you put in, you should expect multiples back.
