The industry is booming, generating millions in revenue – and more and more people are jumping on the bandwagon. The term "coach" isn't legally protected. Anyone can call themselves one, even without any training. This also attracts providers who are primarily driven by profit. Coaching sessions cost anywhere from a few hundred to over ten thousand euros.
One German coaching couple goes even further. They raise hundreds of thousands of euros through crowdfunding campaigns. The money apparently flows into dubious corporate structures with connections abroad. Where did the money go? And where does this supposedly successful company pay its taxes?
Opaque structures are not uncommon in the coaching industry. The film meets with author Charlotte M. Raven, who reports: "This industry is anything but light and love. This industry is cutthroat business, blatant self-promotion, and intense manipulation." If people fall prey to the wrong providers, it can have serious psychological consequences.
How is it possible that people with dangerous coaching methods and dubious business practices earn so much money? Carolin Hentschel and Eva Kunkel set out to find out, a journey that takes them to Portugal, Florida, and Bali.

Ich weiss auch gar nciht WARUM Menschen auf solchen Coaching MIST immer noch reinfallen?!!!
Von 300 Gästen, waren am Schluss 299 mit standing ovations fanatisiert.
Einer blieb sitzen und schüttelte den Kopf.
Das war ich.😊
Daraufhin schrieb ich eine Bewertung über den Abend, die niemals veröffentlicht wurde. Ich bin ihm anschließend auf allen Kanälen entfolgt und froh darüber, nicht auf die Masche reingefallen zu sein.
Meine Schwester ist in eine Coaching Falle vor 3-4 Jahren rein gefallen.
Unsere Familie war zwar angespannt zueinander, aber gerade das öffnete uns restlichen die Augen. Innerhalb von wenigen Wochen wurde sie von der Person, die sie nun mal war, zu einer komplett anderen. Auf einmal hat sie selbst Coachings angeboten und meinte immer "ich muss arbeiten", hatte nie mehr Zeit und kapselte sich komplett ab. Meine Eltern leiden sehr darunter und ihre "Aufgaben", die sie von ihrem Coach bekommen hat (Klärungsgespräch mit meiner anderen Schwester etc) waren teilweise einfach nur absurd. Sie war immer ein sehr skeptischer Mensch, der nicht super höflich war. Auf einmal grinste sie jeden an, betrieb Kundengespräche und nannte sich Aurachirurgin. Sie hat sich komplett geändert und wir haben alle kaum noch Kontakt. Ich würde sie am liebsten packen und rausholen. Aber das ist leider nicht möglich. Schlimm auch, dass die Kinder von ihr das mitbekommen. Die fragen so oft nach ihren Großeltern, aber meine Schwester ist einfach komplett dagegen. Wie eine Art Coaching Sekte.
