In Episode 34, Mark interviews Alina Trigubenko, Founder and CEO of the Awarenow (https://www.awarenow.io) Coaching Platform. Awarenow helps coaches by providing them with our all-in-one business management platform, insights, and best practices to scale their organizations. We built our platform to accommodate all growth stages for coaches and grow with them. In our discussions, Alina reveals that coaches spend forty-three percent of their time on un-billable work – mainly because they lack appropriate systems to interface with their clients.

Awarenow is on the mission to provide tech enablement, digital infrastructure, all in one secure platform for those who support others, providing psychological and emotional relief to those affected by catastrophes. Three of our executive leadership members have miraculously survived disasters. Our founder, Alina, miraculously survived an earthquake and the subsequent landslide during an expedition. Suren survived an earthquake where over 80.000 people died. Our CTO, Alex, was a refugee, lost his family, and experienced war and displacement. The leadership team at awarenow has experienced what it means to lose everything. We feel close to people endured disasters, and feel the urge to support survivors during these difficult times by organizing this campaign. Timely processed traumatic experiences can change the lives of several generations for the better.

Accordingly, Awarenow has agreed to provide its platform for free to solo practitioners and non-profits that donate their time to support others in need. For inquires, please reach out to alina@awarenow.io
