What is your opinion of life coaches and motivational speakers? In this week’s episode we discuss the rise of viral life and femininity coaches and gurus and the ways that people in positions of power or visibility have manipulated the masses. From steering Black community conversations on dating and self respect, to spewing internalized misogyny, and creating workshops and conferences that cost thousands under the guise of of self-care and self-betterment. Join the conversation using #gooduptuesday or tagging us @gooduppod.
