What Corey says about The Coaching Guild

April 13, 2023

Corey Dobyns is a powerhouse

"The Coaching Guild was the program I was looking for. I am nearly 6 months into it. I followed Lisa Marie Hayes for about a year prior to signing up. Some baseline requirements for the coaching program that I would come to choose included; a rootedness in deep honesty, does not put focus on pain point marketing, a learning environment that does not engage in false spiritual positivity, and holds a commitment to dismantle white supremacy in the coaching industry.


I was looking for a foundational program that challenged me and asked me to be a better human. I found it here."



Look, humans are really complicated. Life is unpredictable. Coaching is not always all the good vibes - sometimes, maybe most of the time, the real magic of transformation and change is in the mix of a lot of mess.


At The Coaching Guild, we are not afraid to talk about the really hard stuff. In fact, we require it.

We talk about the fragility of being human and the joy of radical self-acceptance. We also talk about what it's like to be human in systems of oppression.


We talk about the beauty and true honor of being a coach.
Coaching changes lives.


We also explore an honest assessment of how our industry shows up in ways that harm people and the predatory marketing tactics that lurk around every corner in this space.

If you are looking for a program that is all sunshine, rainbows and feel-good fairy glitter, The Coaching Guild will not be your happy place.


If you are looking for a program that will send you down the rabbit hole of your own evolving and teach you to stand safely with clients as they do the same, then you are our kind of people.
