'That's like hiring a tutor that failed out of school!' Life coach is branded a 'joke' after revealing she was divorced TWICE before age 30 - but she insists her past makes her 'uniquely qualified' to offer advice

A woman who has been divorced twice before the age of 30 has hit back at critics who mocked her for being a life coach, saying 'mistakes don't disqualify you.'

Marissa Baker, 30, from Naples, Florida, has been candid about the work she's done to heal from her failed marriages on her TikTok account. Earlier this month, she opened up about whether she wants to get married for a third time.

'People after I tell them I've been married and divorced twice before 30: "Would you ever get married again?"' she captioned a video of herself dancing to a cover of Elton John's 'Rocket Man.'

Decent body, decent face.

Somehow I don’t think the two husbands married her for her brains.

Reminds of advice on parenting from people who never have kids. My “favorite “ couple were Beverly Deangelo and the guy who wrote “ Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus”. I think they had 7 or eight marriages between them and theirs lasted just a few years. They did write advice books on relationships and conducted seminars. Got wealthy from its.

I remember Hillary using the words “uniquely qualified” in describing her fitness for the presidency. Hard pass.

Or people without kids who tell you how to raise them.

Or someone without health issues telling you how to achieve their fortunate good health that they basically have no control over.

The world is full of know it all’s who don’t know how to keep their mouths shut when nobody asked for their opinion.

That said, she is no expert on making marriage work, only on how to fail at it. I suppose there may be some value in learning what NOT to do.

like my ex-girlfriend.

Chronically depressed, never married (will never BE married) woke, prior abortion, yada yada....tried to kill herself.

BUT she is a licensed marital, couples, depression, therapist.

Un-freaking real.

I kid you not.

(Felt sorry for her and thought I could save her that’s why.

That and she had an amazing @ss.

When my nephews were very young, my sis told me I needed to set a good example.

I told her I was a very good bad example and never heard another word on the subject.

Seems reasonable. How many substance abuse counselors are recovering alcoholics?

The whole concept of a life coach baffles me. Seems like an easy way to avoid getting a counseling degree and still get paid for peddling BS. Actually now that I think about it, maybe they are the smart ones since legitimate therapists are full of BS too
