From what I can tell it's a "career" that rich girls from L.A. have when they can live on Daddy's money, take a seminar, and then run around telling everyone else how to live their lives according to a bunch of simplistic platitudes about loving yourself and being "centered."

Like 4 of the ladies I knew at USC call themselves "Life Coaches." I've yet to ask one, "tell me, sitting in Daddy's multimillion dollar L.A. Condo, driving around in the little BMW coupe he bought, and never having had a real job in your life, how are you going to coach other people about their lives?"

All of them are "Life coaches and social media mentors".

I would think the extent of their advice would be "don't forget to cash Daddy's checks" and "Don't put anything on Facebook that you wouldn't want your Sorority Sisters to see."

IT's so lame,dude..

Basically they find depressed,ugly, or socially awkward women and tell them how to dress. how to act and how to do things like they would.

so they take non superficial women and try to turn them into socialites wannabe's

STFU NOOBS!

These are self-described gurus, whom, in general, I have found to be charlatans of a sort. They can get insomniacs to sleep, teach you how to live anxiety free the rest of your life, etc.

Most people talk things over with their friends. Those with no friends use a life coach. At the root you are paying for a fake friend to talk to.

I go to a therapist. We men usually dont have friends that we can discuss the things we need to with.

Some people can benefit from one - it's no different than a personal trainer.


Do you need someone telling you to keep doing squats or whatever? But a lot of people still hire a trainer to tell them to do very obvious things.


edit: You can go to friends with your problems but there is a limit to that - if you vent all your problems to your friends, eventually your friends will lose respect for you and stop being your friends. You can't use a friend as someone to vent to, they'll go nuts. That's why a therapist is valuable, their job is to sit there and listen to you vent.

This is why I have a few female friends. They like talking about that all that BS.

I've referred to myself as a life coach to clients before. It's more all-encompassing than personal trainer, and since I give dietary advice as well, that's good. The idea is that it's someone who will help empower you to take control of your life and well being. There isn't just one definition.

Many fat outposters could use a good life coach
