I don't think financial coaches are going to go away, because of how poor financial education is in the US in traditional learning environments, but I do believe a lot of money managers are going to be eaten up by roboadvisors.

Financial literacy is a pretty basic combination of Grade 5 math and common sense. If you can't grasp it yourself with a tiny bit of effort, no structured learning environment is going to help you.
