Working With Celebrities & Why They Pay More
It can be quite exciting to work with a celebrity as their encouraging life or business coach. The thought of helping someone of such wealth and fame to shift their paradigms and become a brighter and more loving light in the world feels wonderful to consider.
The famous folk I’ve worked with have largely been quite remarkable and lovely. Some dive deeply and find profound shifts within them – embodying a beautiful and illuminating rebirth, while others are too busy and can only skim the surface, either not seeking or not reaching the rebirth they desire.
Some of these amazingly popular people do everything they can to live a healed and peaceful life, while finding every way possible to give back to others. A few that I’ve coached have rebirthed as 100% philanthropic geniuses. God bless them for their inner work and the wonderful things they’re doing in the world.
There are also the deeply unhappy celebs who are so broken, misguided, and paranoid, they can barely fathom someone loving them or genuinely encouraging them without agenda. Some of these celebs live within controlling family systems where they play the role of puppet queen, while their family pulls the strings. These types tend to entrench themselves in bizarre personal drama born and passive-aggressive theatricalities aimed at their families, none of which emerges in the press.
The most dramatic and alienated celebs might also have low self-esteem and self-worth born from what their families projected onto them over time, which deprives them of understanding how beautiful they are and how wonderful it is to work with them.
At times, these types tend to allow their paranoia to take over, prompting them to go into over-reactive or Depcon 5 mode, where they break agreements, play the victim, become dangerously aggressive, even delusional, compounding their self-denial, narcissism, abusive nature, and brokenness to the point of nearly being unhealable. God bless them, too!
I’ve seen it all!
The life of a celebrity is often glamorized, but the reality is far more complex. While fame and fortune may seem appealing, celebrities’ pressures, challenges, and psychopathologies are unique and often overwhelming. That’s where my specialized coaching services come in.
The Celebrity Paradox:
Celebrities are, in many ways, like everyone else, but their lives are magnified and intensified. Their personal and business struggles are often played out in the public eye, their relationships are scrutinized, and their mistakes are amplified. This constant pressure can lead to emotional turmoil, strained relationships, and even mental health issues. Meanwhile, their egos are precious to them, preventing their self-inquiry, self-responsibility, and growth.
Additionally, celebrities often have a team of people around them who may not always have their best interests at heart. This can create a sense of isolation and distrust, making it difficult to form genuine connections.
And they’re often so caught up in talking and validating themselves that they cannot listen to valuable information, let alone truly absorb it. So deeply and darkly absorbed with their temporary selves and this candle-flicker of a short life, they miss out on so much – including going deeper.
The Paradox of Celebrity Vulnerability:
Despite their outward confidence and success, celebrities are often deeply vulnerable. The pressure to maintain a perfect image, the fear of failure, and the isolation that comes with fame can create a breeding ground for insecurity and self-doubt. This vulnerability, while often masked by bravado, is a key factor in why many celebrities seek coaching. They crave a safe space to explore their fears, confront their flaws, and connect with their authentic selves.
The High Cost of Transformation:
Celebrities are often willing to pay a premium for coaching services because they understand the value of personal growth and transformation. They recognize that their success is not just about talent or luck, but also about mindset, resilience,and emotional intelligence. Investing in themselves is not just a luxury; it’s a necessity for navigating the complexities of their lives and careers.
The Importance of Confidentiality:
Confidentiality is paramount when working with celebrities. They need to trust that their deepest fears, insecurities, and challenges will remain private. This trust allows them to be vulnerable, open up about their struggles, and engage in the difficult work of self-reflection and change. Coaches who work with celebrities must uphold the highest ethical standards and maintain strict confidentiality to foster a safe and supportive environment.
The Impact of Coaching on a Celebrity’s Life and Career:
Effective coaching can have a transformative impact on a celebrity’s life and career. By helping them develop self-awareness, emotional intelligence, and resilience, coaching can empower celebrities to make better decisions, build healthier relationships, and overcome personal obstacles. This, in turn, can lead to greater success, fulfillment, and a lasting legacy that extends beyond fame and fortune.

Why Celebrities Pay Higher Coaching Fees
Given these unique challenges, my coaching services for celebrities are tailored to address their specific needs. This involves a deeper level of engagement, more frequent communication, and a higher degree of sensitivity to their delicate situations.
Here are some of the reasons why my coaching services for celebrities come at a premium:
Intense Pressure: Celebrities face constant scrutiny from the media and the public. This can lead to stress, anxiety, and even depression. My coaching helps celebrities develop coping mechanisms and resilience to handle these pressures.
Complex Relationships: Celebrities often have complicated relationships with family, friends, and romantic partners. These relationships can be strained by fame, jealousy, and unrealistic expectations. My coaching helps celebrities navigate these complexities and build healthier relationships.
Unique Challenges: Celebrities face unique challenges that most people don’t have to deal with, such as stalkers, paparazzi, and online harassment. My coaching provides a safe space for celebrities to discuss these issues and develop strategies for dealing with them.
High Stakes: Celebrities often have much at stake, personally and professionally. A single misstep can easily damage their reputations, and a single misstep can derail their careers. My coaching helps celebrities make sound decisions and avoid unnecessary risks.
Intrusive Security Measures: Celebrities have security teams to protect them, but these measures can also create challenges and be mired in paranoia and delusional hatred. Security personnel may engage in invasive practices like hacking and surveillance, damaging relationships and creating unnecessary drama, harm, and stress. My coaching helps celebrities navigate these issues and establish boundaries with their security teams and with their paranoia – which often stems from their narcissism.
Unrealistic Expectations and Entitlement: Some celebrities may flip on a dime and break agreements in a heartbeat, believing the world revolves around them. They may fail to invest in relationships, preferring worship over genuine connection. My coaching helps them understand the impact of their actions, take responsibility, and develop healthier behavior patterns.
Depending upon the scenario, some fancy island and jet owners quickly play the victim and cannot fathom taking any responsibility for their decisions, agreements, and personhood. It’s narcissism at its most exaggerated best.
Oh The Insanity
One sad and twisted celebrity I worked with could not handle any introspection or spiritual rituals because she was too busy hating her sisters, avoiding participating in her marriage, hiring and firing people, and damaging a young pregnant woman whom she agreed to hire, all the while propping herself up as some holy mystical spiritual woman – from hell, really.
Her ego became so intrenched its contrived new-age persona, she could not see what was true or false. I felt for her, even after she hired security teams to hack me – and then stole from me what she had promised.
Truth be told, I genuinely wanted to help this selfish underwear saleswoman to evolve and launch an operation she could truly own and be proud of – one of real spiritual and lasting value – but she didn’t want to do any work on herself and her relationships.
She just wanted to be a pretty, purple, fucked-up fairy – an imagined version of her REAL PERSON.
But my heavens, she provided an excellent learning experience – and I pray for her every day. I don’t take on these types of people anymore. It’s too harmful and hurtful – and clearly not worth it.
How I Can Help:
I offer a comprehensive coaching program that addresses celebrities’ unique challenges, going beyond the surface-level issues of fame and fortune. My approach is both holistic and pragmatic, recognizing that celebrities often struggle with:
Ego Management: Fame can inflate egos, leading to unrealistic expectations, entitlement, and difficulty forming genuine connections. I help celebrities ground themselves, develop humility, and cultivate healthier relationships.
Emotional Volatility: Celebrity life’s emotional highs and lows can be destabilizing. I provide tools for emotional regulation, stress management, and cultivating inner peace.
Decision-Making: Celebrities often face high-stakes decisions with limited time and information. I help them develop critical thinking skills, assess risks, and make choices aligned with their values.
Relationship Dynamics: The relationships of celebrities are often complex and fraught with power imbalances. I help them establish healthy boundaries, communicate effectively, and navigate conflict with grace and integrity.
Spiritual Development: Many celebrities feel a spiritual void despite their outward success. I guide them on a journey of self-discovery, helping them connect with their authentic selves and find meaning beyond fame.
Some celebrities may resist introspection or shy away from taking responsibility for their actions. However, my approach is patient, compassionate, and persistent. Everyone, even the most seemingly difficult individuals, has the potential for growth and transformation.
For example, I once worked with a lovely, deep, and well-intentioned celebrity (and I continue to work with them) who was often unhappily entrenched in her ego and attitude, consumed by jealousy and resentment toward her friends, business manager, and a few members of her family. Through coaching, spiritual practices, and tough love, she broke down her defenses, allowed and confronted her shadow side, and began the journey towards self-awareness, self-responsibility, healing, and wholeness.
She’s truly amazing, but she’s rare in the celebrity world. Gosh, I love her because she’s a real person who is always ready to do the real work. She follows through with every agreement she makes to me and herself. And WOASH – her personal and business ethics, earnestness, and offerings to the world are stunning!
My goal is not to change who you are, but to help you become the best version of yourself – and to help you offer things to the world that are worthy of your heart and goodness.
I believe true happiness and fulfillment come from within, not external validation. If you’re ready to embark on this journey of self-discovery and personal growth, I’m here to support you every step of the way.
