Is professional coaching a scam? Recent articles in major publications like The New York Times and ProPublica have cast a critical eye on the life coaching industry, highlighting serious concerns about unethical practices and questionable training programs. 

Lumia is a leader in the coaching industry and we believe it's important to address these issues head-on. 

Noelle Cordeaux, PCC, CEO of Lumia Coaching, and Chris Clark, PCC, COO and instructor at Lumia, recently sat down on the Everything Life Coaching podcast to discuss these articles, the state of the coaching industry at large, how to identify reputable training programs, and the transformative impact coaching can have when practiced ethically.

At this time, the coaching industry is experiencing significant growth. The wellness economy is projected to surge from $5.6 trillion to $8.5 trillion by 2027. The rise in popularity of coaching has been heightened by global events like the pandemic, which sparked a collective realization about the importance of purpose and meaning in our lives.

For those interested in enhancing their coaching mastery and credibility in the field, the International Coaching Federation (ICF) has designed a progressive system of credentials - moving from Associate Certified Coach (ACC) to Professional Certified Coach (PCC) to Master Certified Coach (MCC). This system is intentionally staircased from one level to the next based on the total number of client coaching hours that a coach has performed because coaching is a craft that requires practice to perfect.

In this expanding market, an ICF credential serves as a way to enhance and legitimize your coaching skills. Not only that, with only 50,000 ICF credentialed coaches worldwide, this globally recognized independent seal of approval helps you stand out in an industry that is still largely unregulated, giving clients and employers confidence in your capabilities.
