Three OG Coaches Talking Shop
Lianne Raymond, Sas Petherick, and Bridgette Boudreau are Three OG Coaches Talking Shop! We have over 50 years of collective coaching experience under our belts and have seen it all in the coaching industry: the good, the bad, and the cringe. Join us for conversations about red flags and bad actors in the coaching industry, and more importantly how good coaches can move forward with confidence and integrity.
Three OG Coaches Talking Shop
15. Discernment, Gurus, and Self-help Fuckery
A return to our spicy roots! One of our founding ideals is to equip coaches and travellers in the self-help and coaching worlds, to be discerning. There IS snake oil and problematic practices that seek to exploit the vulnerabilities of this work.
Bridgette hosts this discussion prompted by the recent death of James Arthur Ray, who rose to prominence in The Secret and was then convicted of negligent homicide after three people died at a sweatlodge ritual he ran. We start with Ray, and dive into other 'gurus' in the self-help world, what to look out for, and what you will never see ethical practitioners do or say.
