"Life coaches - should they stay or go?" |
The life coaches surely have changed, I think they were all nice and caring in the beginning, their first season, like Rhonda first season she was so nice, quiet and caring, than the next season and this season she has a nasty attitude, same with Iyanla, last season, her first season she was dynamic, this season she seem like she want to hurry things but yet she's still caring. Now if any group of people Rhonda should of been mean with was the first season, that group was the ugliest, nastiest group of women I ever seen, yet Rhonda was so soft with them and the group of women we see today aren't as cruel but yet she's so tough. My problem is they barely hear people out before they criticize. I think these life coaches act too high and mighty like they know all. I think since the show change houses, cities and women, they should change life coaches every season, their are many just as good or better waiting for their chance like Rhonda and Iyanla once was, these two are burnt out. It's like they want these women to tell their whole life story so quickly and it seems they get some kind of satisfaction to make someone breakdown crying.

They should go! Even though I hate this "stay or go" game they constantly play on the women, I'm saying it to them. They are getting nasty, and running low on material so they are coming up with more and more outrageous assignments. They should get real psychologists in there, but of course most good ones would not agree to practice their profession in front of an audience.

I say replace them both with the Super Nanny, Jo. Just the threat of sitting on the 'naughty chair' would probably escalate whatever needs to take place to 'graduate' these women. Of course, they should go! They've turned SOH into their own little goldmine and have too many agenda's. Dr. Stan - him, too. GO.

You all are right, it's time for new life coaches, if anything the life coaches need to practice what they preach.

I would like to see new coaches come in. My absolute favorite was Rana, she was real and compassion and should empathy towards the women. Ilyana could be a little mean and harsh at times. Everyone needs someone to get on them from time to time, but not as much as she dishes out. I felt the only person who really stood up to her was Towanda. NEW COACHES!!!!!!!!!!!

I never got to see the first season but I love the way both life coaches approach the HGs. I've read several of both IV's and RB's books and trust their advice and guidance. there's so little we see on tv behind the scenes and the transformations of the HG's speak volumes. I sort of envy the HG's for their opportunity and courage to be there in the first place. my 2cents

Hurray! I thought it was me. I really like Rhonda, but the new psychobabble stuff is too much. I liked it when the women interacted with each other and worked stuff out. Now they just tell on each other every morning. That morning meeting is brutal.

I've seen a lot of criticism on here about the coaches this season. I have to disagree because I like them far better this season, especially Iylana.

I definately think they should go. These women are crazy. They have no compassion like they did before and are very rude and critizise the Housemates alot more and like to see them suffer. I agree with what someone else on here said, they are burnt out.

Just my own perspective, but I think Rhonda and IV are sick of the excuses. I know that these are new women with new problems but can you imagine working intensively with different groups of women for extended periods of time and you get "I Don't get it" or "I don't want to do that" or "I want to go home bwa-bwa"??I think IV particularly is very frustrated with dealing with women who have no SELF-realization and need to have their hand held to realize the SIMPLEST THINGS. Allison would really be pissing me off right now for instance. I think that is why Lisa got attacked so badly in her first group session -- she is the most spoiled, with the least life threatening problem, yet she makes a drama out of it. IV's frustration with her "then go right now" came out loud and clear! IV is being held to a contract for this season so here she is devoting time she doesnt' want to give and she gets this 40 year old lady who whines and cries that she has never grown up. I'm not excusing IV or Rhonda, but after teaching riding lessons for two years I understand quite well the frustration with telling someone something and they CHOOSE NOT TO LISTEN.

That's why licensed psychologists would do better. Part of their training is how to avoid burnout.

I thought IY did a good job today w/ Christina and just hugging her and loving on her. I may be wrong, but IY seems to have more compassion for the girls SHE coaches as to the ones where RHONDA is the primary coach. Did you hear IY today basically tell Lisa she was lazy? my my my

I think that the life coaches are awesome and should STAY. The only difference over time is that the production crew is developing more of a specific approach to having a "show" every day. Things are going on all day long that we don't see on camera. I get so much out of what Rhonda and Iyanla do - thank goodness they don't just let the ladies just snivel through excuses - do we want to watch that every day? I am feeling sorry for Jill having to lug all of her baggage - I hope her payoff is awesome!

While I understand what you are saying and the point you are trying to make but if IV is getting frustrated then she should GO! I mean what advice would she give herself provided she was one of the HG that was being treated. These women don't come to the house knowing what is best for them. They are there for guidance and to give proper guidance IV will need to be a little more patient and not try and push people along. I also agree that both Coaches should GO! I understand that they are "taping all day" but having this knowledge, why would the Coaches subject these women to such humiliation? These women are there to get help and if humiliation is a part of the process, to me it just wouldn't be worth it. I've said this before, the Coaches are "upping their game" so to speak. They are getting more and more ridiculous with the exercises that they are using to help the women "get it". IMHO, it's all about the RATINGS! Sandra

Oh I completely agree it's about ratings. However, I also keep in mind that these women agreed to let television and some LC's w/o counseling degrees or certification mess with their mind.

Your voice is important. What you share adds to the perspective, so you should continue to remain curious and query for relevant information. I think this forum allows everyone to provide a perspective and (probably the best aspect of the forum) is to examine alternative ideas and thought others may provide. Thoughts and ideas of others help inform my position….So thanks for your ideas and thoughts Ugggh...seems so touchy feeling but seriously TRUTHFUL

Stay, stay, stay! They are wonderful; bringing in a mix of both psychology and spirtuality. Yes, I thought that they started out a little tougher than normal this season, but I imagine it must be hard hearing, basically, the same problems over and over. Has anyone heard of "tough love"? I think they are two smart, sensitive, caring individuals. But, I wonder if this has been hard on IV; she's gained some weight. (Bad Tracy, bad Tracy)

I love them both!! Sometimes I think Iyanla is a bit snooty, but I don't know if she intends that for a reason or not. I'd work with her anyday! Rhonda too! I'd love to be in that house. How long are does the group stay there?
