"If not, forget the career in the personal development field..."

I disagree 100%, as I don't see what credentials has to do with your overall knowledge level. There might be a correlation, but it's not everything. I've talked to brilliant people with few accomplishments, and stupid people with many accomplishments. Credentials might give you an edge to show that "Hey, I really do practice what I preach!", but it's not everything.
