79: 7 Speaker Coach Green Flags: What Real Coaching Looks Like (and What to Avoid)
Most speaker coaches teach stage tricks. But the great ones? They help you master message, momentum, and market impact.
In this episode of The Speaker Driven Business, Jacqueline Brooker calls time on the “just tell your story” crowd and reveals the 7 traits that separate real coaches from glorified cheerleaders. This is a no-fluff, strategy-packed reality check for anyone serious about building a speaking-driven business, not just playing dress-up on stage.
You’ll learn how to evaluate a coach before you invest, how to spot the systems that elevate your voice (not diminish it), and why real coaching unlocks your internal wiring, not just your stage presence.
Whether you’re looking to refine your keynote, pitch with power, or build a brand that books, this episode will help you find a coach who actually moves the needle.
In This Episode, You’ll Discover:
- Why cookie-cutter speaker formulas keep you forgettable (00:00)
- The difference between great speakers and great coaches (07:28)
- What elite speaker ecosystems really look like—and why they matter (09:43)
- How to vet a coach’s system before it dulls your edge (12:36)
