Today we delve into ethical considerations around marketing coaching, including MLM-like tactics, pricing, and the pressure to charge high fees to recoup investments in programs teaching coaches how to market.

One particular thing I learned recently about this history of the coaching world is changing how I think about my own business. Even if you're not a coach, this will be an interesting episode!

Topics include:

Following up about last week's conversation with Samantha Pollack about ethics in marketing
Why some of the MLM accusations feel true (marketing coaches teaching coaches how to market to other coaches, etc)
Courses focused on marketing and selling over coaching skills
Why the industry doubled its prices some years ago due to JV/affiliate models
Accessibility not just in terms of money but also how AuDHD folks consume content and integrate
