Followers not leaders.

I can’t help but laugh at how many of these coaches claim to be leaders but are clearly followers. Copying what everyone else is doing, constantly healing themselves, it’s just this weird cycle that you rarely see them come out of.

Why would anyone want their advice?

Why do you think coaches and mentors that talk about sales, 10k months, scaling, premium high ticket offer, etc, attract so many people?

I don't exactly know how to put it into words but, why do you think coaches that are literally selling people how to sell, attract so many people

And specifically, why do you think that they attract so many people that do the same thing they do? It's giving pyramidal scheme.

Mental health coaches

Genuinely curious what makes people get mental health coaches that has zero mental health education and practicing background??

Would you go to a therapist turned a mental health coach vs a faux mental health coach? And why?

Good life coaching

I know I’m at the snark page - but I figured if there is a good one out there the recommendation from this sub hold more weight then anywhere else.

Are there any good life coaches out there anymore? Like, Brooke in her early days before she fell into a black hole? One that doesn’t just try to sell you a life coaching business?

I loved listening to coaching calls and even the 20 min personal coaching were super helpful usually.

Running a psychology practice vs. a coaching business — here's what nobody tells you

I've run both a psychology practice and a coaching business, and the difference is massive.

As a psychologist, clients can come to you through insurance coverage — the acquisition channel is largely built in. Coaching is a completely different game. You have to build and execute a solid marketing strategy from scratch, or clients simply won't find you.

And here's the reality: most clients don't come from your website. They come from social media — primarily Instagram and Facebook.

The real key is building a content funnel that works in three stages:

  1. Awareness — your content helps people recognize their own problem
  2. Connection — they see that you've faced similar struggles yourself, which builds trust
  3. Conversion — they feel safe enough to book a free trial session

That last step is everything. A low-commitment first session removes the biggest barrier to entry and is consistently the most effective way to convert a follower into a paying client. Drop your experience below — I'd love to hear how others navigated this difference. Have you found a channel that works better than social media for getting coaching clients?
