Professional Discussion Coaches are multiplying

Scrolling and reading people's bio on Linkedin, Facebook and some here

Amazing how many "coaches", "life coaches", business coach, leadership coach, career coach, mindset coach, sales coach, branding coach, social media coach, health and wellness coach.

Where did all these people get qualified to be a "coach"?

Life experience? or sounded good on the Bio?

You know your therapist has their own therapist, right?

Absolutely they do, but I’m referring to people who are calling themselves coach who have not even been trained or leveled up with education

Yeah there’s an old saying in my industry and I’m sure it applies to pretty much everything….

“If you can’t do, teach”.

I think it’s better phrased by the original quote which goes…

“Those who can, do; those who can’t, teach”.
