There's something about my business I'm not happy with. There's something about my nutrition or wellness I'm not happy with, and when a coach responds to you in that way, it's not just dismissive and minimizing, it's manipulative, and if you already have a history of trauma, the likelihood that that will re-traumatize you is extremely high.
Ever wondered if that life coach you follow is actually qualified? In this eye-opening episode of 'Soberful', Veronica Valli sits down with Kelly Ruta to uncover the dark side of the coaching industry. Prompted by an unsettling interaction with influencer coach Dave Hollis, they dive into how unqualified coaches and influencers are misleading consumers and causing real harm. This isn't just a rant; it's a call to action for anyone seeking professional help.
Kelly and Veronica break down what true professional qualifications look like and why they're crucial for mental health and effective treatment plans. They also discuss the potential dangers of unqualified coaching, especially for trauma survivors, and offer practical advice on how to spot red flags.
Kelly points out, 'When a coach responds to you in that way, it's not just dismissive and minimizing, it's manipulative, and if you already have a history of trauma, the likelihood that that will re-traumatize you is extremely high'. Tune in for a candid conversation that could change how you choose your mentors.
