Take a moment out of your busy day to listen to Eckhart Tolle and you will thank us for it.
If you don’t know him by now, step out from under that rock! :)
Eckhart Tolle is a German spiritual teacher, self-help author and a life coach to many wellness life coaches. His YouTube channel mostly consists of calm discussions around causes of emotional discrepancies, spiritual regulation and meditation.
It’s common these days to see many YouTube hosts trying to ‘grab attention’ with over-the-top antics, lots of hand-gesturing and using loud tone of voice. But Eckhart is able to capture his audience by being himself with his calm demeanor and substantial content.
On his channel, Tolle utilizes the “Join” function which allows his followers to subscribe to his channel and premium content with a reasonable subscription fee.
Financial Coach Jess is on our list because not only does she motivate us to get your finances in order, she also shares top tips on how you can finetune your financial coaching business especially when you’re starting out.
One of the few financial personalities that inspired her to pursue her coaching business is Graham Stephan, an influential personal finance enthusiast.
One of her videos, titled MY 100K+ FINANCIAL COACHING BUSINESS (how you can create a 6 figure financial coaching business too) garnered 1.8k views!
In brief, she shared an insight into a common mistake that will cost you clients: competing offers of your programs.
The key takeaway: clients are going to get confused if you offer them both options of a one-to-one coaching session as well as a group coaching.
The extra services that you offer should complement your coaching program instead of diminishing it. Additionally, she then provides solution gems for you to resolve this conflict.
Mel Robbins is a lawyer, CNN legal analyst, an author and one of the most booked speakers in the world.
When you watch her YouTube channel, you will understand why her popularity skyrocketed. Robbins’ channel consists of transformational coaching advice on how to work around daily life worries and propel you forward towards your dream goals.
The takeaway from her channel: Robbins has succinct content paired with a high-value video production which elevates her brand.
Coach Corey Wayne is a self-reliance, life and peak performance coach.
Most of his popular content is in regards to being able to read body languages in relationships and dating and how to overcome personal blocks in our daily lives.
One takeaway that we can use is: consistency. Coach Corey Wayne posts at least twice a day.
“Life is relationships” - Coach Corey Wayne
In her interview with Forbes, Bilyeu recalled how her dad commented that, “It doesn’t matter anyways because you’re gonna be a stay-at-home wife”, when her life ambition was about studying film-making.
After 8 years, Bilyeu launched her first cooking show, became a co-founder for Impact Theory Studios with her husband Tom and became the host and founder of Impact Theory, “Women of Impact” talk show which features women who have overcome incredible hardships.
Her boldness to interview personalities with hard questions but with genuine empathy is a skill that any coach should learn from.

This is where Linda Raynier can help. Raynier is a career strategist, intuitive purpose coach and speaker who supports her clients in revamping their resumes and job search strategies, developing powerful relationships with recruiters, or in career transition.
On her channel, Raynier answers common interview questions such as, "Tell Me About Yourself?", "Where Do You See Yourself In 5 Years" and also offers great tips on, "How To Negotiate For A Higher Salary?"
One thing that stands out about her videos is that she breaks them down into chapters so even if you get distracted and forget to hit the ‘pause’ button, you won’t need to scrub back and forth to resume at a specific timestamp.

We saved our pick of the best life coach on YouTube for last!
Aileen Xu, is living proof that you can never start too early! The inspiring face behind Lavendaire is a 32 year old lifestyle coach who started her journey in 2011, while questioning her life path as an advertising intern at the tender age of 20. In her life journey, Aileen pursued singing, acting, hosting and even tech startups.
However, 2014 was the breakthrough year for her as she began her YouTube channel, Lavendaire and shared her life lessons as an ‘artist of life’.

On her channel, she shares various fun lifestyle tips from “"Astrology for Beginners: How to Read a Birth Chart", "10 Ways to Reduce Waste | Zero Waste for Beginners", "10 Simple Daily Habits to Change Your Life" and so much more.
