Is coaching a pyramid scheme?
I see all kinds of things on the internet with people talking about this idea:
”is coaching a pyramid scheme?”
This episode is such a juicy, juicy topic. So, I invited one of my clients, Erica, with me to do this podcast, and we had such a blast talking about this hot button issue together.
I do think that for coaches there is almost this secret shame they feel, or tension internally around this issue.The way I see it, showing up as a coach on social media can be a hard time.
The integrity around selling a product can be tied to different levels of drama. Unfortunately, it becomes challenging to sell their service, and to sell coaching. Mainly because, in the back of their head, the coach is thinking, “am I part of that pyramid scheme?”
In this episode, Erica and I will share our non-defensive insights on this topic. We will share the emotions that most coaches tie to this idea, why they feel this way, and how to form your own idea about the coaching industry.
