At just 24, coach and business owner Soph Karakato has already worked with over 300 clients and built her own successful online coaching brand — Soph Fit Coaching. But her journey didn’t begin with confidence, clarity or a perfectly mapped-out plan. It began with one simple decision:
✨ To back herself.
In this episode, Soph shares how she went from studying Cert III & IV in Fitness to building a thriving coaching business at a young age — and why she believes backing yourself is the difference between thinking about it and actually making it happen.
We talk about:
💪 Starting out in the fitness industry (when you don’t feel ready)
✨ Going “all in” vs overthinking the first step
🧠 The mindset, confidence and business lessons she learned early
❤️ How real-impact coaching goes far beyond physical transformations
🌿 Why understanding clients as humans is every great PT’s superpower
So if you’ve ever wondered, “Could I really do this?” — this is your episode.
