The Lack of Soft Skills in Coaching
March 14, 2025
I had a question for you on that from your perspective, like, you know, Muscle Nerds is an education platform as much as a coaching system, a consulting system. Is it because the coaches, one of the things I personally think is like the, a lot of coaching nowadays, just a bunch of people that think X's and O's is coaching and they just go, here's your set scraps and your macros and that it And they don understand how to actually well they don have the soft skills and knowledge on what the psychological relationship is to coaching which I think is wrong But do you think it because they don know to have that conversation They don't know what the body's doing. So they can't actually have that conversation with the client because they don't know what leptin and ghrelin is. They don't know what neurotransmitters are. They don't know what these chemical imbalances become. And therefore they would just be talking out of their ass to even try.
