EP #207 We Need Your Help

In this week’s episode, Shelby gets real about the state of the coaching industry—the good, the bad, and the downright feral.

The coaching world has often been compared to the Wild West: full of opportunities, but also riddled with landmines. From overhyped promises and overpriced systems to heartbreaking stories of coaches being scammed out of thousands, Shelby pulls back the curtain on what’s really going on.

But this isn’t just a vent session—there’s a clear path forward. Shelby explains why nurse coaches are uniquely positioned to bring ethics, credibility, and standardization to coaching in a way that protects clients and restores trust.

If you’ve ever felt skeptical about coaching because of past experiences—or if you’ve witnessed the darker side of the industry—this episode will not only validate those feelings but also inspire hope. By leaning into our nursing values of care, ethics, and professionalism, nurse coaches have the power to raise the bar and transform coaching into a trusted, credible profession.
