I can’t believe people enjoy and are motivated by motivational speakers.

The only thing worse than motivational speaker might be a "Life Coach"

Legit life coaches can actually be pretty cool. My FIL was a CFO

The quality of coach is very different from 'life coach' to 'executive coach'

Amazing. Also a stupid stunt, in retrospect. Maybe less stupid if you make sure

Attendees want to be motivational speakers themselves. Bunch of narcissists.
