11 spiritual business ideas

11 spiritual business ideas

The Universe probably has been nudging you to finally start a spiritual business. Why? Because our world desperately needs your spiritual gifts and knowledge.

But with so many paths to choose from, deciding how to begin your spiritual business journey can feel overwhelming. I get it. It’s not just about finding a business idea, it’s about aligning with your true calling.

And to help you get started, I pulled together a list of spiritual business ideas that are not just about making money, but about making a positive impact in the world. After all, you’re here to help raise the frequencies of the collective consciousness, aren’t you?

But before you explore how you can turn your soul’s mission into a purpose-driven business, let me share something very important about spiritual entrepreneurship.

⚠️ Please read this section before jumping to the list of spiritual ideas 👇

Build a spiritual business on authenticity

I know there’s a LOT of noise online about how to start a spiritual business so please make sure you don’t fall for the “marketing hackers” and “business gurus” 🙄

The key to building an energetically aligned business is: authenticity. It’s not about following trends or doing what everyone else is doing. It’s about tuning into your higher self and choosing an option that feels aligned with YOU.

And with that said, here are 11 spiritual business ideas to inspire you on your entrepreneurial journey:

  1. CONSCIOUS PARENTING COACH
    The sooner someone is encouraged to mediate and expand their mind, the better it will be for humanity. If you feel called to support parents in raising conscious, spiritually aware children, consider becoming a Spiritual Parenting Coach. Guide parents in creating nurturing, mindful environments for their little ones. Also, I’d recommend starting with this idea if you are also a parent. Your clients will trust you more and will find you more credible.
  2. ANIMAL COMMUNICATOR / PET PSYCHIC
    If you’ve always felt a special connection with animals, you might want to explore becoming an Animal Communicator. Use your intuitive abilities to help pet owners better understand their furry babies, offering insights into their needs, behaviors, and emotions. And yes, this is something you can LEARN. Here’s a trusted animal communication course that has my seal of approval.
  3. ENERGY HEALING JEWELLERY MAKER
    What we have on our bodies impacts our energy, we know that. And more people are becoming aware of this. So if you have a talent for jewellery-making, consider starting an energy-healing jewellery business. Infuse your creations with positive intentions, crystals, and healing energy to offer something truly unique to your customers. You can sell them at local fairs/markets/events or online through Etsy, Marketplace or your own website.
  4. SPIRITUAL RETREAT HOST
    If spiritual travel and in-person education are your thing, then organizing and hosting spiritual retreats could be a great way for you to make our world a better place. I recently interviewed an incredibly powerful soul on my other website where she shared her top tips for marketing a spiritual retreat. Start by reading or watching that interview if this path is calling you.
  5. JOURNALING / MANIFESTING TEACHER
    If you simply LOVE helping others start a spiritual development journey, why not support their starting steps with manifesting and journaling guidance? Choose a very specific target audience and explain in your marketing WHY you want to support those kind of people.
  6. SACRED SPACE DESIGNER
    When you have intuitive knowledge about energetic flows inside buildings AND you love interior design, you could create a service for people who want their spaces to align with their energies. This would make a great path for someone who worked or trained as an interior designer or even an architect.
  7. SOCIAL MEDIA MANAGER
    All of my spiritual business mentoring clients struggle with one thing: creating content for their social media account and engaging with other accounts. Most spiritual entrepreneurs simply don’t have the time to dash out fresh content AND be active on social platforms. So if you’re really good at creating content, you could help other spiritual businesses with their social media management.
  8. SPIRITUAL / HOLISTIC WRITER
    Similarly to social media, writing long-form content is usually also something that ends up at the bottom of the to-do lists. While I personally enjoy writing content, many of my clients don’t. So instead of just becoming another content writer, you could specialize in working only with spiritual entrepreneurs.
  9. CRYSTAL HEALING CONSULTANT
    In case you can’t walk past a metaphysical store without buying new crystals, you might want to explore becoming a crystal healer or a consultant. Or both! Learning the science behind how crystals work would be a great way to start this journey and I can wholeheartedly recommend any of the crystal healing trainings by Allie Phillips. Besides crystals, she also teaches how to blend essential oils with them plus she’s a super fun character!
  10. SACRED GEOGRAPHY OR ALCHEMIST ART
    This one would be a great path for someone who is a talented artist but is bored with creating pieces for just anyone. Infuse your artistic skills with spiritual practices to create bespoke art. It could be anything from paintings, sculptures, T-shirt designs, decorative items etc. I’d buy from you 😁
  11. SPIRITUAL CONTENT CREATOR
    Being in front of the camera is your go-to meditation? Then you could start a YouTube channel or TikTok account to educate or motivate others on their spiritual development journeys. If you’re more of a conversationalist, you could explore starting your own spiritual podcast. Please note that these solutions might be the toughest the monetize if you don’t know how to create content that’s likely to reach large numbers.

Whichever option you choose, please remember: starting a spiritual business is not just about offering services or products, it’s about building something that resonates deeply with your soul’s mission.

The spiritual entrepreneur journey is as much about your growth as it is about helping others.

How does a spiritual business coach elevate your business?

how does a spiritual business coach level up your business

If you’ve ever wondered what a spiritual business coach REALLY does for soulful entrepreneurs, you’re gonna love this article. There’s so much noise on the market about what business mentors and coaches do, so I thought it’s best to clear up the confusion. In this article, I’m going to show you 4 specific examples of what business coaching can bring to your soul-led business, so that you can feel more confident about deciding if you need external support or not.

But first things first, let me show to how to choose reliable sources of information if your soulful venture needs support.

WHAT KIND OF SPIRITUAL BUSINESS RESOURCES CAN YOU TRUST?

As I mentioned, the spiritual industry exploded in recent years which also means that unfortunately a ton of “experts” are now trying to exploit the spiritual community. Marketing gurus, business experts and coaches with limited (or sometimes zero!) real-life experience trying to teach spiritual beings how to run and grow a soulful business.

a spiritual business coach can help you avoid taking the wrong path, quote by Timi Orosz, spiritual business mentor

I lost count of how many of these “expert” messages and emails I received over the years. My favourite one was a 19-year-old guy (who just started uni) telling me that he would teach me how to market my spiritual business. Sadly for him, he forgot to take a look at my background to see that I was a Sales & Marketing Director and a CEO before I launched Connect One Marketing to support the spiritual community with business and marketing tips. So this story takes us to the top 2 checks:

1️⃣ Do they have relevant work experience?

While you can learn the theory from courses and university programs, nothing beats real-life experience. Especially when a business coach is here to guide others, they must have relevant work experience to be able to understand your roadblocks and show you innovative ways to elevate your spiritual business.

1️⃣ Do they understand spiritual development?

The biggest frustration I’ve seen over the years is the misunderstanding that happens between spiritual entrepreneurs and business or marketing coaches. Because if a coach or mentor doesn’t understand the ups & downs of a spiritual journey, it’ll be very difficult for them to show you aligned directions. They simply won’t get you. So make sure you look for experts who are also actively working on their own spiritual development.

Use these two vital checks to decide how much you can trust the expertise before you invest any of your time and money into business support.

And now, as I promised, let me show you 4 specific examples of how a spiritual business coach can help you elevate your soulful business.

Branding with Soul

Branding with soul isn’t about jumping on the latest trends or fitting into a template. It’s all about crafting a brand that feels 100% natural and authentic to you. It demonstrates your values, your beliefs and most importantly your energy. It’s like a second skin.

Your brand needs to empower and never manipulate. Its core job is to draw your audience in like friends gathering around a bonfire. A spiritual business coach can help you bring your authenticity into every tiny part of your brand, making it a reflection of your genuine self. Imagine your spiritual business as a cozy corner of the internet where your tribe feels like they’ve stumbled upon a digital soul mate.

➡️ If you need this kind of support, then look for a spiritual business coach who has extensive, high-level marketing and branding experience. Ideally, you want someone who built entire branding concepts before or worked in those types of roles.

Co-creating a strategy

I know that the word ‘strategy’ can set you into panic mode immediately but let me bust a myth here real quick. Strategy can be FUN and PLAYFUL. It doesn’t need to be dry, complex or boring. Think of it like your vision board with a user manual that makes your business journey one heck of a soulful performance.😊

Co-creating a strategy is not about a rigid action plan. It’s more like orchestrating a jam session where every note has a purpose. Where every beat moves you forward. It’s the dynamic dance between intuition and strategy. With the help of a spiritual business coach, you can you find that rhythm. Remember, there isn’t a one-size-fits-all solution! Because your strategy has to align with you on a soul level.

➡️ If you need this kind of support, find a coach or mentor who LOVES seeing the big picture. When co-creating a strategy is what you need the most help with, avoid any coaches who get caught up in the small details. You need a partner who can push you towards your vision while helping you break down your steps to achieve your vision.

Alchemize the failure

Being a spiritual entrepreneur means that you’ll definitely face some setbacks. Yes, they suck but they’re perfectly normal. And when you have a coach or mentor by your side, you can learn how to turn failure into soulful stepping stones to GROW your spiritual business. Don’t get me wrong, it’s not about sugarcoating the 💩 but rather distilling the lessons they carry. There isn’t much personal growth in success while failure will show you a ton of opportunities. A spiritual business coach can guide you in this alchemical process so that you can recognize what the experience was teaching you within the business realm.

Remember, your entrepreneurial journey is a series of evolving, transformative chapters rather than a linear growth towards success. The ups and downs are part of the game just like you needed many Dark Nights of the Soul to truly get your lessons.

➡️ If you need this kind of support, choose someone who also works with mindset shifting. Business success heavily relies on your own mindset as a spiritual entrepreneur so most coaches would naturally include mindset tools within their coaching program. But make this need clear to them during your discovery call when you’re getting to know each other.

New aligned direction

Sometimes we all need a bit of recalibration to find our aligned North. And as an entrepreneur, it’s likely that you’ll experience this more than once. Because your business is the extension of your own energy, as you’re evolving, so will your business. You can’t stagnate on the market. You can always find new ways to expand and scale your soulful venture when you feel like you’ve outgrown your initial vision.

Discovering a new aligned direction in your business is not about just jumping on any path but about co-creating a trajectory that aligns with your soulful vision. Imagine your business as a compass, and a spiritual business coach as the guide helping you recalibrate it to a new, aligned North.

➡️ If you need this kind of support, look for a coach who has experience in scaling and business development. You want to work with someone who can deeply understand what it means to explore new markets or develop new services.

You need to vibe with a spiritual business coach

Just before I wrap up this guide, let me remind you that your business isn’t just a venture; it’s a reflection of your authentic self. And because of that, if you ever decide to work with a spiritual business coach, make sure you pick someone that you genuinely click with.

Your business isn’t just a brand; it’s a living, breathing reflection of your journey, and it deserves to shine authentically and brightly in the entrepreneurial realm as well. So choose the type of business support that will fully allow you to shine in your own ways.

In case you need genuine support along your entrepreneurial journey with authenticity and strategy, you can browse through my spiritual business mentoring solutions at my main website, Connect One Marketing. You can always find a ton of free spiritual business tips and marketing resources to help you get going in authentic ways.

How to choose a spiritual business coach?

When you are a spiritual entrepreneur, finding the right business support can sometimes feel like navigating through a dense forest. The terms “spiritual business coach” and “spiritual business mentor” are often used interchangeably, adding to the confusion. So let me shed some light on this topic and help you choose the right guide for your journey.

Do you need a coach or do you need a mentor to help your spiritual business? There are actually a lot of key differences between these two guides.

And you can end up feeling a bit disappointed if you pick the wrong option for you.

Business coach vs business mentor: what’s the difference?

Before we jump into how to choose the right spiritual business help, let’s clarify the core differences between a coach and a mentor.

The Business Coach

TLDR: a coach doesn’t tell, a coach asks.

It’s not the job of a spiritual business coach to give you answers. Think of a coach as your thought-provoking guide. Their primary role isn’t to hand you all the answers on a silver platter but rather to ignite the light within you and lead you towards clarity. Coaches use the power of questions to help you shift your perspective, encouraging you to see things from new angles. They won’t tell you exactly what to do or provide black-and-white answers, but they will empower you to tap into your own wisdom and make informed decisions.

The Business Mentor

TLDR: a mentor tells and gives advice.

The biggest asset of a spiritual business mentor is real-life experience. Now, imagine a mentor as the wise sage on the mountaintop. They have a big-picture view of what’s happening around them. Mentors have been where you want to go, and they’re here to provide you with specific guidance based on their real-life experiences. They lead by example and are your go-to source for clear, actionable advice. Mentors are like the compass that points you in the right direction, drawing from their wealth of knowledge and expertise.

Blurring the lines of spiritual business coaching and mentoring

Here’s where it gets interesting. Many experienced business mentors often blend coaching and mentoring techniques. If you get to work with a seasoned spiritual business coach, they might seamlessly incorporate mentoring aspects into their coaching sessions. This can be incredibly valuable because it combines the best of both worlds – the ability to explore your own insights while benefiting from their real-world wisdom.

Now that you understand the difference between a mentor and coach, how do you decide which one you need? It all comes down to a very important question:

Do I need a fresh perspective or specific advice about what to do?

➡️ If you’re seeking clarity on your spiritual business path and want to explore your goals from different angles, then a spiritual coach is your guide. They’ll help you bring your inner wisdom to the surface and empower you to make decisions aligned with your purpose.

➡️ If you’re looking for specific answers, actionable steps, and insights based on someone’s direct experience in the spiritual business world, then a spiritual mentor is what you need. They’ll provide you with practical advice and act as a roadmap to help you reach your goals confidently.

The Pros and Cons of Choosing a Mentor

When considering a spiritual business mentor to support you, it’s essential to evaluate the advantages and disadvantages to make a decision easier.

Pros and cons of choosing a spiritual business mentor

PROS

  1. Real-Life Experience: Mentors offer invaluable insights derived from their own experiences in the spiritual business world, providing you with practical, tried-and-tested advice.
  2. Accelerated Learning: When you’re guided by someone who has been there and done that, you can fast-track your progress, potentially avoiding common mistakes.
  3. Expanded tribe: Mentors often have extensive networks, which can open doors to valuable connections, partnerships, and opportunities within the spiritual community.

CONS

  1. Limited Availability: Mentors, especially experienced ones, can have limited spaces for new clients, making it challenging to secure regular access to guidance and support.
  2. Dependency Risk: Even though a solid mentor will develop your entrepreneurial skillset, it’s up to you to put them into practice. Relying solely on a mentor’s advice will not do you good in the long-term so make sure you try your wings during the mentoring process.
  3. Potential Mismatch: Finding the right spiritual biz mentor who resonates with your soulful business goals and values can take some time so always follow your intuition! If someone doesn’t feel like the right partner, don’t say yes to working with them.

The Pros and Cons of Choosing a Coach

Now let’s have a look at some of the key advantages and disadvantages of choosing to work with a spiritual business coach.

PROS

  1. Accountability: One of the best things about working with a spiritual business coach is that they double up as your accountability buddy. They can really help you stay on track with your vision and motivate you to take action.
  2. Focused Expertise: When you opt for a specialist coach (eg social media, public speaking, sales etc), they bring specialized expertise in various aspects of the spiritual business world. This is extremely important when you have specific challenges.
  3. Increased Motivation: A spiritual business coach would also regularly check in with you and help you with your goal-setting process. This combo can really boost your commitment to achieving your vision as it keeps your motivation high.

CONS

  1. Time commitment: Effective coaching takes time. Don’t expect a significant transformation from one session. Spiritual business coaching sessions only bring lasting improvement when you actively implement what you learn and execute your homework in between sessions.
  2. Inexperienced coaches: In recent years, the term “coach” exploded, which also means that the market sadly became oversaturated with inexperienced people who hide behind the coach title without any formal training or experience. Before you choose a spiritual business coach, ask for examples of their relevant experience, qualifications or training.
  3. Potential mismatch: yes, this is something that’s true for both mentors and coaches. Your personal compatibility is so important when you are looking for support for your spiritual business. Remember to really listen to your intuition.

Your spiritual business is an extension of your energy

All things considered, when you are looking for a spiritual business coach or a mentor, consider first where you are on your journey. Then look at which type of support you actually need (guidance or advice). Finally, keep in mind that a skilled coach will use mentoring techniques and an experienced mentor will use coaching methods 😊 The lines between coaching and mentoring often blur but ultimately the right choice will come down to your own intuition.

Whichever option you choose, just know that your spiritual business journey is a unique experience. Your soulful business is an extension of your own energy. So embrace the guidance that resonates the most with your soul, and watch your business improve in alignment with your higher self’s calling.

Is Timi Orosz a spiritual business coach or a mentor?

Hi, it’s Timi 👋

I’m a spiritual business mentor with a ton of coaching methods up my sleeve (NLP coaching is my personal favourite). I received my first coach training in team & process improvement in 2009 when I was working with the largest bank in the UK. Since then I built marketing departments and teams, launched a 25-room hotel in Malta and headed a career coaching company’s strategy before launching my own spiritual business: Connect One Marketing.
