Gosh aren't I stirring the hornets nest.
Just a wee dip into my concerns with wellness coaches, and then some red flags which I feel are important enough to pop into the notes:
Run for the hills if the coach has one or more of these issues...
-can't listen to your concerns with their service or can't listen to hearing you say they've offended you
-doesn't offer you options or do a financial readiness chat
-doesn't have good hygiene with relationship boundaries with you
-says your money issues are a lack mindset or handles criticism by suggesting you have unresolved negative thoughts
-holds no qualifications relating to their area of talent/expertise
-can't discuss racism, oppression, privilege, poverty or equity
I'd love to hear from any of my coaching friends, there's so much nuance here and this is only a ten minute dip into the subject...open for more!
