It has never been more important to demonstrate your brand's narrative. In a digital age where attention equals money, storytelling is key. The issue for Louise and Cat, the dynamic coaches behind Badass Coaching, wasn't a lack of drive or intention. Their enthusiasm needed to be transformed into reliable, impactful material.



“We found ourselves overthinking every piece of content. We wanted it to be perfect, so it just didn’t get done,” explains Louise, Head Coach and Founder of Badass Coaching.

By assisting women in strengthening their bodies, minds, and eating habits, Badass Coaching, based at Tara Hill, Gorey, Co. Wexford, has developed a devoted and expanding community. The objective was straightforward when they teamed up with Goodlion Media: create content that captured the spirit and genuineness of their brand.


It was evident from the first conversation that more than just images would be the main focus. The goal was connection as much as visibility.


Capturing Strength Beyond the Physical


Three clients who have completed important personal journeys were featured in a transformation photo shoot for their first project together. Cat and Louise wanted to highlight the emotional process that went into the physical outcomes.


Goodlion Media suggested using behind-the-scenes film instead of just posed pictures. This approach captured the action, passion, and narrative. Every aspect, from preliminary planning to the finished image, was managed with artistic guidance and consideration for the brand's tone.

Louise comments, "I thought this is exactly what I would have created if I knew how to shoot and edit." She adds, "Goodlion Media simply grasped the story, the tempo, and the atmosphere. Everything I had envisioned was there."


From Engagement to Enquiries


The video elicited an instantaneous and quantifiable reaction. Client enquiries, follower counts, and online engagement all sharply increased. Most significantly, prospective customers began to emotionally relate to the brand's narrative.


According to Cat, "People began contacting me and saying, I watched the video and it felt like you were talking to me directly." She continues, "They were better able to comprehend not only what we do but also who we are."


Badass Coaching saw a 49% increase in client growth after launching their first project with Goodlion Media. This was a direct result of their increased online visibility and more effective messaging.


Building Confidence in Front of the Camera


The environment established during filming was a major factor in the project's success. Being on camera can be strange and unsettling for many coaches and small business owners. Goodlion Media made the process approachable and empowering. They offered both creative guidance and practical assistance.


Louise describes it as "like having a director and a hype person in one." She adds, "Goodlion Media made sure our message was understood, provided the appropriate cues, and helped us unwind. Such assistance is quite important."


The serene and polished on-set environment also helped their clientele, which was primarily female. Despite the fact that many had never been recorded before, the final product felt genuine, organic, and emotionally compelling.


“Our clients love working with Goodlion Media. They feel safe, respected, and they genuinely enjoy the experience,” says Cat.

Why Storytelling Matters


Badass Coaching has been collaborating with Goodlion Media on events, community gatherings, and social media content ever since that initial video. The partnership has developed into a reliable creative alliance that contributes to actual business progress while producing top-notch graphics.


Louise says, "We've already suggested Goodlion Media to other entrepreneurs." She emphasizes, "Hiring someone with a camera isn't enough. The team you're working with is knowledgeable about psychology, branding, and crafting compelling narratives."
