326: Why Coaching Models Are Broken

The coaching industry is a $30 billion machine built on “proven frameworks,” but for experienced professionals, these models often lead to a bank account running on empty. Real transformation doesn’t scale in a group of 300, and a weekend certification can’t replace 35 years of clinical expertise. Lori pulls back the curtain on why “trusting the process” is often a deflection of coach responsibility and how to spot a coaching mismatch before you sign your next five-figure contract.

Highlights:

  • The Scale Myth: Why real identity work and transformation cannot be mass-produced.

  • Certification vs. Expertise: The truth about why results are the only credentials that actually matter.

  • The Cost of Mismatch: A cautionary tale of how the wrong program can erode professional confidence.

  • AI and the Thinking Gap: How to ensure your coach is actually doing the thinking, not just generating “influencer bro” lingo.
