Ep. 351: Non-Consensual Coaching

Everyone knows *that guy.* You know, the guy who comes up to you at parties (or makes comments on your social media) acting like a life coach, and telling you all the ways you’re doing life wrong. Yeah, that guy sucks. Hey we get it, we’re coaches too, and when you see someone doing something and you know there’s a better way, it’s only natural to try to help! But has unsolicited advice worked well in the history of anything? Life is a journey, and it’s for the best that we let people take their journeys at their own pace. Let’s keep coaching consensual.
