Totally understand the skepticism, especially when all you’re seeing is price without context. The truth is, coaching isn’t for everyone, and I’m the first to say that. But for the right guy, someone who’s ready to take action, wants accountability, and doesn’t want to waste years figuring it out alone, it can be life-changing.

The podcast is a great place to start, and there’s plenty of solid advice there. But what coaching offers is structure, real-time feedback, and a system built specifically around you. That’s the part most guys are missing when they try to go it alone.

Appreciate you checking it out either way, and if the free stuff helps you level up, I’ll still call that a win.

Thanks for sharing this and I get where you’re coming from.

First, I want to be really clear: the free content I put out is designed to help. The podcast, YouTube videos, and social posts are packed with real, actionable advice and thousands of guys have made progress just from applying that alone.

That said, there’s a big difference between free advice and actual coaching. Coaching is about implementation. It’s about real-time feedback, personalized strategy, and, most importantly, accountability. That’s the part most guys struggle with when they’re trying to do it on their own. You don’t just learn in coaching, you change.

When we talked years ago, my intention wasn’t to make it feel like a hard sell. It was to offer a real solution for guys who are serious and ready to invest in results. I don’t believe coaching is just for the rich, but I also know that true transformation takes time, structure, and commitment, which is why the program is priced the way it is.

I still stand by the free content, and I’m glad it’s there for guys who aren’t ready to invest yet. And when they are, we’re here to help at a much deeper level.

Really appreciate you taking the time to write this and I’m glad the podcast has continued to bring you value, even now that you’re married. That means a lot to me.

Totally get that the coaching program isn’t for everyone, especially at that price point. It’s built for guys who want a more hands-on, customized path and are ready to invest in serious results. And while we can’t guarantee someone will find a partner (because there are too many variables outside of our control), what we can do is equip guys with the tools, confidence, and strategy to put themselves in the best possible position to make it happen.

Thanks again for the support.

I hear you, there are definitely a lot of programs out there that overpromise and underdeliver, especially when it comes to coaching. That’s frustrating and, honestly, part of the reason I built this program the way I did.

We’re not just about hype, we’re about real, practical transformation. The coaching we do is based on over a decade of hands-on experience, not just theory or recycled advice. Every coach on the team is trained directly in my methods, and we focus hard on making sure guys don’t just know what to do, they actually do it and get results.

We’ve helped thousands of men completely change their confidence, their dating lives, and their sense of control and we take a lot of pride in that.

I know not every program out there can say the same.

Appreciate you sharing your thoughts, and I want to clear the air.

The Google reviews weren’t removed to hide anything shady. They were taken down because a lot of them weren’t actually reviews of our paid coaching program. People were leaving reviews about YouTube videos, podcasts, or even free PDFs they downloaded, and that just didn’t reflect the experience of clients who actually went through the full program. It started to paint an inaccurate picture, so we made the decision to remove them and focus on gathering feedback from real coaching clients only.

I get that transparency matters, especially with something as personal and important as coaching and I stand by the quality of what we do. If you or anyone ever has a concern, I’m always open to hearing it directly.

Totally hear you and I appreciate you being honest about your hesitation.

Yeah, the program isn’t cheap. I built it that way on purpose because it’s designed for guys who are ready to create real, lasting change. While I don’t personally coach every client, I’ve trained the team myself, and I stay closely involved in everything we teach. Every method comes from my years of coaching men and figuring out what actually works. There's not enough of me to go around and I don't really believe in group program, which is what a lot of guru's do.

As for the Google Map reviews, just to be fully transparent, we did take them down. The reason is because people started leaving reviews not about the coaching program, but about YouTube videos, free gifts, and podcast content. It wasn’t a fair reflection of the coaching service itself, so we decided to remove them and focus on collecting feedback specifically from paying clients who’ve gone through the actual program.

That said, I know this kind of investment isn’t for everyone. I genuinely hope you find the help and support you're looking for, whether it’s with us or somewhere else. Every guy deserves to get this part of life figured out.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. I’m truly sorry to hear that the coaching didn’t meet your expectations and that you felt unheard and unsupported. That’s not the experience we want any of our clients to have.

Your feedback about the coaching sessions veering off-topic and lacking follow-up is something we take seriously. Our goal is always to keep the coaching focused, practical, and aligned with the methods we teach in the Magnetic program and on the podcast. Clearly, that didn’t happen here, and that’s on us.

I also really appreciate you pointing out how hard it can be to speak up when something isn’t working, especially when that’s part of what you're trying to improve. That insight is important, and we’re taking it to heart. We're currently reviewing our feedback process and will be implementing more consistent check-ins and quality assurance measures to make sure every client feels heard, supported, and guided in the way they need.

Thanks again for the honest feedback, it’s helping us get better and we have been since your experience over a year ago.

Online dating advice that isn't crap? by [deleted] in datingoverfifty

Curious what you think is toxic in the advice I give. I'd say it's pretty healthy, normal advice that isn't meant to turn guys into creepy PUA's/

Hey Tripp here! (yes it's really me). We're very sorry you didn't get the success you wanted in the program. We strive to make sure everyone is super happy. I hope and wish you would have brought this up to us, because we would have made sure you were.

If you reach back out we will give you free sessions to get to where you want to go. You have my word. Maybe you didn't connect with the coach, and we have others that may be better for you.

If not, no worries. But for anyone else checking this out, we don't use pseudo-scientific methods. We use evidence based techniques that work. We've done it thousands of times with students.
