IMO: Coaches Are Scamming, and We’re Letting Them Get Away With It

In this episode, I dive deep into a conversation that's long overdue: the rampant scams in the online coaching industry and how we’re all just letting it slide. You know the drill-business owners who preach about their seven-figure success but somehow can’t pay their own service providers. It’s like they’re selling you the world while leaving a trail of unpaid invoices and broken promises. I touch on the nuances of what it REALLY means to call out a business as a service provider, & why most of us don't.

I’ll break down why so many of us have stayed quiet (spoiler: it’s not just about being “nice”), the impact of speaking out vs. staying silent, and how this nonsense continues to thrive. Are we enabling these scams by staying silent, or are we protecting ourselves from unnecessary drama? I'm here to say enough is enough.

This isn't a callout, it's a wake-up call.
