People often coach precisely in the fields where they are most unsuccessful. Single marriage coaches, business coaches whose only business is their coaching business, academic writing specialists who don’t publish academically. These people go into coaching precisely because they feel a lack in their chosen field. They use clients as a bandaid to put over the suppurating sore of their deficiency.
It’s not true that people who are successful in their field don’t coach. It’s normal to want to share your skill and help others. There are absolutely business coaches who have sold multimillion businesses, for example.
Choose a coach who does it out of abundance and not out of lack is my advice.
