The existence of a market for a good or service doesn’t imply that the optimal amount is being produced. I’d bet that the the price of these coaching sessions is larger than the marginal cost of the sort of feedback that cousin_it is talking about.
It is clumsy, but if it’s valuable and people are not supplying it to you for free, then it’s worth paying for. (Think about editors—aren’t they basically being paid for criticism? Good criticism is hard work!)
Downvoted for “market failure”. You can buy coaching sessions and you will get feedback.

Are your recommending that people pay other people for feedback? But that’s so clumsy!
Or am I failing to parse?
