High Frequency Leadership with Samantha Warren 312. Gaslight, Gatekeep, Girlboss? The Truth About the Coaching Industry
This episode isn’t a takedown. It’s a reckoning and a redirection. If you’ve ever looked at the coaching industry and thought, "Am I crazy, or is this whole thing starting to feel… off?"—you are not crazy, you are not broken, and you are definitely not alone. In this powerful solo episode, Samantha pulls back the curtain on the manipulative tactics, the performative spirituality, and the underbelly of a world that often hurts more than it helps. Having navigated the industry for eight years, she shares her own complicated relationship with it—the good, the bad, and the lessons learned from feeling scammed, foolish, and manipulated.
This is a masterclass in developing the one skill that matters most in this new era: Discernment. Samantha breaks down the "manipulation blueprint"—from love bombing and high-pressure sales to the narcissist/codependent dynamics at play. But this isn't just about what's broken; it's about what we are building. This episode is an initiation into High Frequency Leadership: a new paradigm rooted in truth, embodied service, and transparency over performance. It's time to take your power back, trust your gut, and become the kind of leader the world actually needs.
