Sick of these??????
if you’ve opened up yourself to the idea of coaching, expressed any shred of displeasure with your current circumstances, or demonstrated the slightest inkling that you want more out of life — more money, better health, more fulfilling relationships — you probably feel like your social media feed — every social media feed — is just an endless barrage of these.
I know because that’s all I see too.
Sell thousands of books a month — with absolutely no following! Get THOUSANDS of eager clients EVERY DAY, while you sit on the beach drinking margaritas — all with our secret, drop-dead simple turnkey system!!!!!
Meet the woman (or man) of your dreams! All while you stuff Cheetos into your face watching Netflix on your couch!
Can’t lose weight???? It’s because you don’t know your body type. Fix your metabolism forever with our foolproof, color-by-number system!
And then, after they manipulate you into signing on that dotted line, they give you some cookie-cutter stuff about gratitude, visualization, and “fixing your mindset”, along with a laundry list of tasks that will be completely impossible to follow, or an insane diet equally as impossible to adhere to.
They will wrap it up into a flashy-splashy online course, place a bow on top, and present it to you like it’s God’s gift to humanity — well worth the thousands of dollars of your hard-earned cash that you shelled out in your desperation.
Then, especially if your burning desire is to be a coach, they will tell you to create a “funnel”. One exactly like the one you feel into. They’ll teach you the same DM techniques and Pressure-Driven, Guilt-Ridden sales systems that pulled you in, making you feel simply awful about trying to do the only thing you ever wanted to do.
And so, a vast sea of carbon-copy clone coaches is created, each using the same words, same images, same everything, and you feel like a stranger in a vast wasteland of nothingness.
You look around and see that everyone says they want to help you, but it doesn’t FEEL like anyone really wants to help at all. It only seems that they are just looking for a way — any way — to fatten their wallet and inflate their (already gigantic) ego.
How do I know?
Because I’ve been through it, seen the dark side, and want no part of it.
And so I’ve contented myself by writing. I discovered poetry (which I absolutely love!) I’ve found Neville Goddard and A Course in Miracles, and seen my life transformed. And I’ve inspired and motivated hundreds — even thousands — through my words and my presence.
All without a single cold call or DM. without a trace of guilt or ever feeling like I was taking advantage of someone.
But it’s not enough — because something is still missing!
I want to coach!
For a short time, I was a weight-loss coach. And I loved every moment of it! And I would like nothing better than to do nothing other than write and coach.
So what do I do?
This.
I’m going to keep writing, keep motivating, and keep inspiring — mostly here on medium and substack. And every so often I’ll drop an offer of coaching.
I do it because I am so grateful for how I’ve been able to change my life, creating joy and happiness that fills each and every day…
And I want to share that feeling with you.
So if you want that too — whether your desire is for money, better health, better relationships — whatever success means to you…
Send me a DM, or an email, or click the link below to schedule a time to talk.
I promise — no pushing, no pressure, no guilt.
Only patience.
Only understanding.
Only Love.
That is my promise to you.

Very familiar. I left my coaching communities because of this nauseating stuff along with watching the maturity level of the coaches who were raking it in when certain issues became hot. My very few clients loved me and I had one very successful coach in awe that my average for maintaining clients was as long as it was, but even when I tried to market, it never brought anyone - literally zero. The only clients I ever had found me at the supermarket or through some other organic way. So I assume if I am meant to coach again, it will just happen. Bless you on your journey!
