Marketplace went Undercover to Investigate Life Coaches

 


Many life coaches help clients work on things like mindfulness, goal setting,  boosting confidence and offer career and relationship advice.

Life coaches are not therapists and there is no organization regulating the industry. Anyone can call themselves a life coach even with no training.

Marketplace wanted to know if they’d cross the line and offer unqualified advice about mental illness. To investigate Marketplace producers created cover stories with the help of several experts and met with a number of life coaches.

Additional advice

Be wary of how much a coach is charging. If they’re offering you a time-sensitive sales pitch, or pressuring you to sign up, take a step back. 

Go elsewhere if you want mental health support. If you deal with mental health issues like anxiety and depression, you may want to go to someone who has been specifically trained in treating those issues. If you or someone you know is struggling, here’s where to get help:

Pseudoscience Does not Help You

What I learned:

The independent scientific method takes time and is a lot of work - it seems to reveal the best results.

Indivdual product test observations can be true for a very select set of times, places, test subjects, materials and not help you at all because your circumstances or metabolism may be totally different.

Greedy businesses will corrupt data, reviews, results etc etc to sell you a useless or dangerous product.

New York Supreme Court Judge Order: Give The Patient Ivermectin As Court Battle Leads to Ivermectin for Successful Treatment Against COVID-19: A judge ordered the Millard Fillmore Suburban Hospital to allow an 80-year old woman to be treated with Ivermectin. According to the family their attorney, the treatment saved the life of Judith Smentkiewicz. Although not yet approved, according to court documents, the woman’s daughter referred to it as a “miracle drug,” as do her attorneys, Ralph C. Lorigo and Jon F. Minear. Apparently, a doctor ordered the drug off-label in the intensive care unit (ICU), and as she improved, she was moved to another unit, and the doctor there stepped in and disallowed the use of the drug. Family members immediately involved lawyers and legal action to resume treatment. And now, The New York Supreme Court Judge Henry J. Nowak has aligned with the family.

Historians

The education establishment doesn’t want competition.

 


What I learned:

On math tests, Success Academy kids outperform every school in New York state.

LaMae de Jongh is Success Academy’s Chief Schooling Officer. Our black and Hispanic students outperformed their peers by double, triple percent in their math. By peers, you include the rich kids in the suburbs? Yes.

The chain wants to offer its magic to more kids, but they aren’t allowed to. New York limits the number of charter schools. When progressive democrats are in charge, they shut some charters down. The highest performing school in the state. 

The education establishment doesn’t want competition. Education advocates say charter schools are not the answer. 

Unlike many public schools  Success offers dance and other activities. It’s not schoolwork all the time. Chess, debate, theater, music.  Those aren’t add-ons,  those are part of our day.  

As a taxpayer the funding per student comparison was shocking - success at 17 K the public system at 35 K  - talk about getting more for less !!!

Religious Political Ethnic Personality Cults that by Actions and Hate Kill masses of Humanity


https://bigthink.com/the-present/four-cult-recruitment-techniques/

Religious political ethnic personality cults that by actions and hate kill masses of humanity sometimes sacrificing all of their own members.

What I learned:

Cult followers have invested money, time, emotion and reputation. 

Cult followers may have sacrificed their family, friends, job, church and lifestyle to follow the manipulating devil. 

In their corrupted minds they can not give up all that they have done.

Basic appeals of logic, reason or humanity don't work with the controlled cult followers

You will need extra help to reach them and free them from their downward spiral.

On a global scale:

Competing "cult leaders" from 1930 to 1945 - Hitler, Hirohito, Stalin, Mao Zedong, Mussolini

Competing "cult leaders" from 2010 to ???? - Putin, Xi, .....

WW2 killed over 100 million

WW3 will kill over 1 billion

History shows that with 1 individual "cult leader" - the world looks and laughs

When the 1st "cult leader" builds an army the neighboring competing "cult leaders" use fear to gain power - "we have to protect ourselves".

When there are 3 or more "cooperating cult leaders" - the end result has always been war - check any real history.

Any "cult leader" that hates one or more particular group or says we have to protect ourselves by killing is working to corrupt and kill mankind.

Individuals, countries and all of mankind will suffer huge losses again by not learning from history.
