WTF is life coaching? Have a facebook acquaintance who did some class and calls herself one, after being a yoga instructor. Like--why would you take advice from a person of middling success? Is it just another MLM where people calling themselves life coaches teach other people to be life coaches so they can teach more life coaches?

This accounts for a lot of it - the rest is mostly just getting hired by people who are too broke to afford someone actually qualified, and drastically overstating your success up until that point (E.G. Say you were an Entrepreneur when you really just lost money on an MLM)

Yo dawg I heard you like life coaches so we gave your life coach's life coach a life coach.

the word coach is meaningless to me after tying that. It also looks too much like roach
