Experience vs. Education: What Makes a Great Coach?


Listen Later

Lots of great coaches have a formal education, lots do not. The point is that a degree isn't necessarily the thing that makes them so good.

Krissy, Dr. Chris, and Ryann come at this from completely different backgrounds. They get into what makes a great coach, why formal education is often overkill for most goals, when you genuinely do need someone with a specialized credential, and the red flags that should make you think twice when looking for a coach.

Plus a conversation about why communication is the entire job, why zero certifications after years in the industry is a warning sign, and why the coach who has lived your specific struggle is sometimes worth more than the one with the fanciest resume.
