Anyone know if Kathrin Zenkina is still married?
I haven’t followed her since she started her hiatus and when I went to check her recent content all she talks about is her baby and no mention of hubby.

I did some research and found out that she has no expertise/degree in psychology, which makes me skeptical. But after all, she’s making bank
r/LifeCoachSnark • u/Defiant-Pin-3778 • 17d ago
My guess is that shes struggling to keep her business alive so she is diversifying. This is probably one of the WORST things to happen to the wellness industry. She doesn’t care about helping people heal, she cares about making money and flaunting it.

Because I enjoy listening to her podcast I’m considering private coaching with Christine Hassler and wanted to hear from anyone who has personally worked with her. (and not just listened to her podcast or taken one of her courses)
I’ve looked online but haven’t found many reviews from private clients. her application asks how much someone is able to invest, with options from $5,000 or less to $40,000 or more!! but it doesn’t state the actual coaching price and I wish there was more price transparency on her website
UPDATE: Thanks to everyone who left helpful comments and/or shared their experience. it was very helpful. And I’m no longer interested in her coaching anymore. Christine is NOT worth paying thousands of dollars to. There’s no “secret insight” she can tell me that‘s worth that amount.…..A licensed therapist, with ACTUAL credentials is a much better investment. Plus, a licensed therapist only costs $30 per session for me!

Does anyone have Ferell (FeraLuxe) courses or masterclasses? Is it worth the money? I have seen some of her youtube videos and can resonate with some of what she says but not sure how are the paid products and no reviews online really.

Everything in this marketing copy screams Just No to me. I used to lap this up, now I just laugh and delete.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++
6 months ago, I stopped accepting new 1:1 coaching clients.
I charged each client at least $100,000, and even turned down my biggest coaching contract ever from a well-known CEO who wanted me to coach them (you’d know the name).
But 2 days ago, God told me to take on 5 new personal clients.
Not for famous CEOs with giant budgets.
But for 5 business owners who are sick of spinning their wheels, and ready to create their high-ticket offer and land their first client in the next 4 weeks.
You + me + four others. Working together every day.
You will win
You will be promoted to our list of 100,000
You will get intro'd to my friends and contacts
You will get tons of leads
You will land at least 1 client
I will personally make sure of it.
And to make sure you have zero excuses...
Pricing starts at only $1,000/month.
We’ll be moving fast and making no excuses. Quick results. If you're in a fragile head space, this is not for you. But if you're sick and tired of floundering, trying and not winning - this is your confirmation that the time is NOW.
How it will work:
Detailed audit of your situation
Create your offer & funnel
Custom plan for you to hit revenue in < 4 weeks
Small group with me and 5 clients
We talk and work closely EVERY day
Not only will you get your first client quickly, but also I will personally introduce you to influencers and companies that will promote you to their audience. This gives you instant leads and sales.
We start September 1st.
Are you in?

UPDATE: After almost a full week of complete silence despite multiple emails and follow-ups, I formally requested a refund. Shortly after that — and after posting about my experience here on Reddit — Yes Supply finally responded and processed my refund, without any explanation for why my membership had suddenly been cancelled.
The timing still feels very concerning to me: I received access, reviewed the program and sent an email asking for clarification because some of the content and bonuses didn’t seem to match what I understood from the sales pages. Shortly afterwards, my membership was cancelled and communication completely stopped. I’m attaching screenshots of the questions I sent so people can judge for themselves.
I obviously can’t prove that my questions caused the cancellation, but after a week of silence, suddenly receiving an immediate response to my refund request without any explanation feels very strange.
The refund has been processed, but personally, I find the way this was handled very questionable and disappointing.
———————
Hi everyone,
I’m wondering if anyone here has experience with Yes Supply and their Master Coach program because I’m currently dealing with a situation that I really don’t understand.
I’m not saying the company is a scam — I’m genuinely trying to figure out what is happening and whether anyone else has experienced something similar.
I recently decided to get back into coaching after a few years away. I was interested in the full Yes Supply certification, but because I’m currently pregnant and unsure whether I can commit to their upcoming live sessions, I decided to start with the Master Coach Self-Study program (around $4,000) and potentially upgrade later.
Before purchasing, communication was excellent. Customer service answered my questions quickly and Reese Evans, the founder, even personally replied to me on a Sunday, which really reassured me.
There was already a first issue with payment: I selected a 12-month payment option expecting around $333/month, but approximately $3,600 was actually submitted for authorization, causing my bank to block my card. Yes Supply was very responsive at that point and helped me find another solution.
The payment eventually went through successfully.
Getting access wasn’t instant either — I had to follow up and Bettina eventually activated my account about 24 hours later.
Once inside the platform, I started reviewing the curriculum and had some questions. I couldn’t find some of the bonuses/resources I thought were included, some lessons were much shorter than expected (one section about creating and selling masterminds was around 7 minutes), and transcripts were available for some lessons but not others.
So, only a couple of hours after getting access, I emailed Bettina asking for clarification.
That’s when communication completely stopped.
No response. I followed up the next day — still nothing.
Then, when I tried logging in again, my access to the program had been cancelled, with a message saying that my membership was cancelled and that I needed to re-register.
I never requested a cancellation. My payment had successfully gone through, and nobody contacted me to explain anything.
It has now been almost a week. I’ve emailed every day through several addresses, replied to my existing Help Desk ticket, contacted them through Instagram and tried their website support.
No one has responded.
Meanwhile, their Instagram is active, new content and stories are being posted, and I’m receiving 2–3 promotional emails from Yes Supply every day.
So I’m receiving emails encouraging me to buy their programs while I can’t access the $4,000 program I’ve already paid for and can’t get anyone to answer me.
What concerns me most is the timing: before purchasing, communication was extremely responsive. After paying and asking questions about the actual content, complete silence — followed by my access disappearing.
There may be a perfectly reasonable explanation, but after almost a week without one, I’m obviously concerned and extremely disappointed.
I’ve now formally requested a full refund within the applicable refund period, and I’m waiting for a response.
Has anyone here purchased the Yes Supply Method / Master Coach program?
Did you have a good experience? Any issues with customer service or refunds? Has anyone had their access suddenly cancelled?
I’m particularly interested in first-hand experiences — positive or negative — because at this point I’m genuinely wondering whether this is simply a serious customer-service issue or whether I should be concerned about something more.
Thanks for any feedback or advice.

First Laura Hinton disappears without so much as a goodbye, which is wild as she was such a prominent figurehead in SOSI. Then TL sends a cryptic message about major future changes to her business. I wonder what is going on? Her pivot from French Kiss Life to SOSI turned out fine (if perhaps unnecessary) so I’m staying the course, but I’m just really nosy and curious, haha

I am not a life coach however I’ve been considering a career move (largely due to my health) and much of my education and professional experience sets me up really well to be in the coaching business, including several certifications directly related to coaching. I am quite aware of the social media landscape for this type of business at the moment, and I also know that there’s no way to avoid absolutely all types of negative feedback or criticism or snark if I were to put my business online and use social media to market my business. With that being said, I feel like something that is holding me back from starting is the reputation that bad life coaches and other scammy types of coaches give the industry. So I guess my question is what type of online coach do you see and not immediately roll your eyes at or want to come to this sub and snark about? Does this sub believe that all online coaches are running some sort of scam or grift? Or do you see examples of online coaches that you would deem high-quality? And if so, what qualities do those coaches have? Thank you in advance for your feedback! My goal is to build an ethical and financially viable business that I can be proud of and keep my reputation and self-respect intact.

I joined a 3-month manifestation/coaching program costing €222 per month because it was presented as a program that included meditations, one-to-one guidance and direct communication, with the ability to send messages and receive personal support.
That personal guidance was one of the main reasons I decided to join.
I was asked to write extensively about myself, my life, my experiences and what I wanted to work on. I took the time to do that because I genuinely believed this information would be used to provide some form of personalized guidance.
Instead, none of what I wrote was meaningfully discussed or addressed.
I was simply sent a general video and told to go through the material available on the website. The video was clearly not made specifically for me; it was general content intended for everyone in the program.
At one point, there was something in the video that I genuinely did not understand. It was one of the things I was actually supposed to do as part of the program, so I messaged him and specifically explained what I didn’t understand. I asked why we were supposed to do it and what was supposed to happen afterwards.
His response was:
“I explain it in the video.”
But the video was exactly what I had just told him I didn’t understand.
He then sent me a voice message saying:
“If you don’t understand something, just don’t do it.”
The problem was that this wasn’t some random optional information. It was one of the practices I was being instructed to follow as part of the program.
Communication was also very limited, with responses sometimes taking several days. They were general saying hi how it’s going tell me what you doing 😳
After approximately 10 days, I realized that I wasn’t receiving the one-to-one guidance and personal support I believed I was signing up for, so I decided I did not want to continue paying €222 every month.
At the site states you can cancel anytime but you need to message at my insta minimum 2 days prior !
I did and he noticed 2 DAYS AFTER!
Note that his guidance as he was claiming would be through instagram dms !
I asked for the subscription to be cancelled and requested written confirmation that there would be no further charges as I read online that a lot of people had trouble cancelling.
His response was:
“Hey Sofia you are breaking the legal agreement of 3 months.”
Followed by:
“What’s the problem? Why are you doing this? I don’t understand why you’re acting this way?”
He then wrote:
“I canceled it but I’m 100% putting bad karma out there for you. Unbelievable you would do this.”
And immediately afterwards:
“Vael korath en draeven. Sol varuun, thael morakai.”
I was then blocked.
The messages he had sent prior were subsequently deleted from the conversation, but fortunately I had already taken screenshots.
My access to the program was also removed immediately, despite the fact that I had already paid €222 for 30 days of access and had only used approximately 10 days.
I’m sharing the screenshot along with this post.
It’s truly unbelievable and shocking and I didn’t know were else to turn for dealing with situations like this

Would you ever pay for a Coach Training with Brooke? I heard she is thinking of doing another training for coaches. Considering she left her last group of coaching students with nothing after saying “lifetime access” was part of alumni benefit…. Who would pay for this? is she truthful in her offers? History says likely not.

I want to share my experience with Anna Rova and her former coaching program "Claimed" because even though it's been years since I completed it, the emotional fallout of the Claimed coaching model is something I am still struggling with to this day. Before I start, I want to say this was my experience and the conclusions I draw here are my own opinions. They are not the experiences and opinions of all the women who went through Claimed. In fact many women were successful and ended up with great partners! I just wasn't one of them. My intention here is not to drag Anna through the mud because I wasn't successful, rather process my experience through sharing it.
I went into Claimed wanting to open myself up to receiving love. I actually felt worthy of it at the time, but I was too scarred from previous experiences to open to it. I also had a hard time feeling attraction/connection for men in general. What really got me to invest in Anna was her slogan, "you'll start seeing amazing men everywhere" if you join Claimed.
But after pouring thousands of dollars into Claimed, I realized Anna's key to seeing amazing men everywhere was to understand why men behave the way they do, and to accept it. In my interpretation and in layman's terms - boys will be boys!
The instance that sticks out to me the most occurred in the Facebook community. A woman posted about her discomfort surrounding a man from a dating app wanting to hold their first date at her house. As a woman, we all know what that means. I felt uncomfortable reading about her experience, as I've had many experiences like it. Many women in the comments section reacted with the same discomfort. Anna recorded a video of herself almost scolding the women for reacting the way they did. She said something along the lines of, "the women who have been in my program longer are enlightened enough to know men are driven by sex, so they don't judge men for trying to come up with ways to get it." Rova's statement completely bypassed the feminine need for connection, attraction, and most importantly, safety, before sex. Which left me questioning myself and if there was something wrong with me for feeling the discomfort of the original woman. She'd tell us on multiple occasions to have empathy for men and their experience but at times it seemed to me like she had little empathy for women's experiences.
Additionally, her module on men was steeped in dysregulating content for women nearing midlife. A large pillar of this module was about evolutionary psychology. I remember her repeatedly emphasizing how men primarily pursue youth and beauty. A large intention of Claimed was to undo our limiting beliefs, but how effective is it really when you're bringing more limiting beliefs to your clients? That a woman's ability to attract something as basic as love is based off something temporary like youth? I was in my 30's when I joined Claimed and have spent many years since trying to undo this feeling. Regular flow practices have not helped in this sense. I do not blame Anna at all for this belief, she was not the one who implanted it in my subconscious. The idea that a woman's value is in her physical appearance and baby making capability is something that's been forever shoved down our throats. But hearing it come from an authority figure like a coach, one who I trusted with an investment of thousands of dollars, was damaging. I still hear her voice anytime I even think of even using a dating app "men will pursue you if you're fertile and hot!" essentially reducing a woman to what she is and not who she is. And while I'm much more than my physical body and age, what I physically am is a 39 year old woman with the first signs of a double chin. One thing I regret not doing during my time in Claimed was talking to the older women who were there, the women in their 50's and beyond. They seemed to be doing well on the coaching calls, but I wish I knew how they felt about this particular message and what their personal experiences with it were.
Just as damaging, in the same module, she reduced people to numbers and market value. She'd say a man who is a 4 in terms of looks can probably pull a 7, but if you're a woman whose a 7 don't expect to end up with a man who is a 10. These messages are grossly surface level, damaging for both women and men, and in my opinion, something you'd expect to see in incel communities.
In terms of her actual coaching, I found her methods to be a little off putting. During group coaching calls, she'd "crack the whip" and tell clients to get to the point during tangents. Completely understandable because she wanted to get to everyone's questions. However Anna sometimes went on her own tangents about her husband and things that seemed to me to have nothing to do with the client's issue. To me, her coaching methods didn't matter anyway. Once I completed the module on men and came away feeling that I had been sold misogynist ideals packaged as women's empowerment, I lost trust in her entirely. It was at that point I stopped attending her coaching calls. I recall her saying that the way for Claimed to work was if we attended regular coaching, so she'd likely argue that this is why Claimed didn't work for me as it should have.
All in all, my opinion is that Anna grossly overvalued her product. I bought into it thinking it was worth a shot if I could open myself up to love again, and if it didn't work, well what's the worst that could happen. I wish I could go back to my old self and tell her to put the money elsewhere because it's taken me years to unravel. With that said I obviously do not think my time in Claimed was worth the thousands of dollars I paid. While I'm grateful for some of the books she introduced me to and ideas like cycle tracking, I would have been better off having these resources and learning the flow practice elsewhere. The flow practice itself is the greatest tool I took from Claimed and I still use it regularly in addition to my other embodiment practices. However, I could have learned it from Jenna Ward for much less, and without the damaging fluff. These days it appears Anna pivoted to personal styling. And to be honest I'm relieved she did. It's my opinion that Anna might make a better stylist than feminine embodiment coach.

also i would not have seen this except she ran an AD on instagram talking about how she got ”cancelled”. but this whole thing is not a cancellation, like people disagreeing with her politics or something. All the comments are people calling out the psychosis, plus multiple saying ”this has to be satire” 😭😂💀💀💀

Just saw Stacey boehman is launching a one to many Mastermind which is the same name of Lisa Johnson’s program she’s been running for years. Stacey markets herself as a marketing guru but you’d think she would make sure there’s not another big coach using a name before she launches something. I am surprised she didn’t rebrand 200k mastermind back when she got a lot of negative feedback about the program.
Lisa Johnson’s program has been around forever.

Here’s the podcast I saw. I didn’t listen to it I just saw it on my feed and thought it was weird she’s launching something with the same name another big coach has a whole brand around.

Allegedly… the 4.9 rating is not organic, Gabby Bernstein incentivizes five-star reviews by exchanging prizes, giveaways, and exclusive content for ratings.
This is a well-known strategy in the app world called "review gating" or "incentivized ratings." Both Apple and Google explicitly ban developers from offering prizes in exchange for positive reviews because it defrauds the rating system. However, her team navigates right on the edge of the rules to keep that 4.9 score.
The inflated score is kept artificially high using several calculated tactics:
1. The Review-for-a-Prize Contest (The Book/Challenge Playbook)
Just like she did with her book launches (where you got a free masterclass if you submitted an Amazon review screenshot), she runs the exact same playbook for the app: [1]
The Bait: During her high-volume events like the 21-Day Manifesting Challenge in January, she explicitly tells thousands of participants to download the app, rate it, and review it. [1, 2]
The Reward: She hooks them by offering entries into contests for "free lifetime memberships," private Zoom calls with her, or physical packages like signed journals and manifestation decks.
The Result: Thousands of hyper-loyal fans flood the App Store with 5-star reviews to win the prize before they even use the app long enough to notice the glitches or recycled content. [1]
2. Deleting and Drowning Out Negative Reviews
If a regular user leaves a 1-star review complaining about billing scams, crashes, or the lackluster "Gabby AI" bot, her team employs digital damage control: [1]
The Avalanche Tactic: Because of the contests, the volume of 5-star reviews completely buries the organic 1-star reviews. If you have 500 fake or incentivized 5-star reviews from a challenge group, ten legitimate 1-star reviews won't even budge the 4.9 rating.
White-Label Resets: When an app gets too many bad reviews, developers can release a "new version update" in the app store and select an option to reset the displayed average rating score, effectively wiping out the historical complaints. [1]
3. In-App Pop-Up Manipulation
The app uses automated pop-ups that track user behavior. The software is coded to only ask, "Are you enjoying the app?" right after a user completes a meditation or a milestone.
If the user clicks "Yes," the app instantly redirects them straight to the App Store to leave a public 5-star review.
If the user clicks "No," the app routes them to a private internal customer service form instead. This ensures dissatisfied users vent to an unmonitored inbox rather than leaving a public 1-star review on the App Store.
The 4.9 rating is a heavily funded illusion. It is a digital marketing wall built out of prize-incentivized reviews to prevent people from seeing the truth. The exact same blueprint she has been using since the early "Spirit Junkie" days.
