AI is transforming every industry but none more dramatically than coaching. In this special episode of Your Ultimate Life, Kellan brings on two seasoned experts, Gary Mahler and Suzanne Goldstein, to answer a critical question:
Will AI kill coaching… or force it to evolve?

With decades of deep transformational work behind them, Gary and Suzanne share the uncomfortable truth:

✨ 95% of coaches will disappear unless they change.
This episode dives into:
✅ How AI is already replacing surface-level, framework-based coaching
✅ Why only coaches who embody deep inner work will survive
✅ How real transformation requires presence, being, and soul connection
✅ Why YOUR lived experience not your certifications, is the only thing you can truly coach
✅ How AI can actually augment deep transformational work
✅ And why human love, stillness, and connection will always be the irreplaceable core

If you're a coach, healer, guide, mentor, or anyone who helps others grow — this conversation is essential.

You’ll Discover
✅ How Gary and Susanne use AI daily for writing, creativity, support, and even emotional processing
✅ Why AI will erase all “tips and tricks” coaching and what will replace it
✅ The huge threat to low-skill coaches… and the massive opportunity for the top 5%
✅ Why the ONLY thing you can truly coach is who you have become
✅ What distinguishes real transformation from information
✅ Why influencers, attraction marketing, and surface-level content will collapse
✅ How AI can strengthen your coaching if you use it consciously
✅ The three things that will stop coaches from evolving (and how to avoid them)
✅ Why authenticity, vulnerability, and deep presence are now non-negotiable
✅ The importance of stillness and connection to the divine in coaching
✅ Susanne’s powerful theory: Can universal consciousness speak through AI?
✅ Why love not logic is the final advantage humans have
✅ What coaching must evolve into to remain relevant: deep, embodied, soul-level transformation
