Will there always be a demand for coaching? If there are humans involved, yes. How do I know for sure? How can I be so certain? Great questions! You see, Coaching is about helping people solve their problems and/or helping them get something they don’t already have in their life. That’s it. For example, it could be helping a complete beginner athlete become an Olympic Gold Medalist. I see a bright future for coaching because I see a lot of problems that people will happily invest in coaches to solve so that they can have what they want. That is all coaching is - helping people get what they want.




I see new problems people will face for the first time in the next 2-7 years. This is the biggest opportunity for coaches in the next 2-7 years because a lot of people will have things they want for the first time in the next 2-7 years.


Here are some of the coaching niches and biggest opportunities I see on the horizon in the next 2-7 years:


  • I will share these in the format of a ‘Help Statement.’ e.g., I help [WHO] with [WHAT] and maybe [HOW].

  • I help humans find their feet again after losing their jobs to artificial intelligence.

  • I help professionals thrive and feel connected in isolating remote Zoom working environments.

  • I help managers lead and stay connected to their 100% remote teams to achieve more together.

  • I help traditional banking professionals find their feet after being disrupted by cryptocurrency.

  • I help humans who were hurt by self-driving cars to rebuild their trust with technology so they can keep living their life.

  • I help young adults disconnect their addiction to technology and enjoy everything life has to offer.

  • I help young adults breakthrough their addiction to social media and build authentic real-life relationships.

  • I help Amazon postage & delivery humans to find their feet again after losing their jobs to robotics.

  • I help burnt-out doormen & receptionists to project manage the endless Amazon deliveries received by all of their residents.

  • I help people to reduce screen time and save their eyesight with BTT (Breakthrough Bluelight Therapy).

  • I help people to feel safe again in leaving their house after COVID-19.

  • I help corporate professionals to exercise emotional intelligence through Zoom to powerfully lead their 100% remote teams.

  • I help 100% remote teams to practice emotional intelligence with each other through zoom.

  • I help sales professionals develop their Zoom presence to be better than in person.

  • I help hospitality professionals cook up a pandemic-proof mindset.

  • I help homeschooling single parents raise within themselves a pandemic-proof mindset.

  • I help homeschooled young adults to thrive in their social, and physical workplace.

  • I help men find love in an overwhelming online dating world.

  • I help women find love in an intimidating online dating world.

  • I help commercial space travelers find their balance back on Earth.

  • I help young adults addicted to Virtual Reality to disconnect and build in-person relationships.
