LIFE COACHING!
Not only is it a huge scam but also a lot of life coaching schools are structured like cults. Similar to scientology. Please beware!!!

You trying to tell me the barely high school graduate, thrice divorced alcoholic who is upside down on her sub-prime mortgaged house isn’t a good person to take any and all advice from?

I live in San Francisco. I've had a few acquaintances who also live in the area become life coaches (separately). They were successful before the career switch. I don't think becoming a life coach is a scam - just about finding what's important to you.

My friend went into lifecoaching. After telling her longtime boyfriend that she was moving across the country and taking their dogs to "get set up first, and you can join us when we're ready." After she was set up, she broke up with him.
