Life coaches might actually be more useful than a therapist. Therapists aren't really supposed to tell you what to do. I wouldn't know though, since I have not used one, but it would be cool to be one without having to actually have a degree in anything.

I don’t get the hate from the other posters. My life coach really helped me when I was stuck a few years ago. I lost 50 pounds with her guidance, went back to school and now have a career I love.
People are mocking OP because she wrote "couch" as in "sofa." But I agree life coaches are mostly dubious. Glad it worked it for you though.

SIL is a life coach and had to do some kind of certification.
I’ve not seen her in action but from what she’s said, it sounds like she just tells people who are unable to make decisions on their own what to do. Basically like having your own personal cheerleader to stand by and say “you’re doing great sweetie!”

It's great to lie on after a long hard day. Until the springs give out.

Responding to myself. It also listens to me rant sometimes, which is valuable.

A therapist is trained. A life coach is anyone who thinks they give good advice.

Is it at all related to a therapist? Just curious.
