Job ad - no TERFS need apply

I have Maisie's book.

It is part extremely helpful and for that I'm so grateful to my friend who gave it to me. But it is interspersed with desperate appeasement to our trans overlords and also .... Well, if I was going to be faux progressive about it I'd say it steers dangerously into cultural appropriation territory. Surprised Maisie hasn't been cancelled over it.

God that instagram is unintentionally hilarious. “The universe is delivering!” They sound like a cult 🤣

The last one left to strike out on her own!

Sorry, that should have been attached to the post about Jez becoming a Life Coach.

Haha, yes!

The list of desirable attributes is quite something. Aside from the embarrassing injunction that this unfortunate post-holder will 'love' being bombarded with impromptu voice mail requests, I nearly cracked my sides over this little gem:

You can execute at a high level without being micromanaged.

Who's she hoping to recruit? The next Albert Pierrepoint?

I delved into her website as I was bored and she has podcasts. The only person she appears to have interviewed though is her bloke. The transcript is an illuminating insight into her world.

Basically a lot of

‘So, tell me what it is you think is so incredibly interesting, unique and wonderful about ME?’

’Thats fascinating. So, how would you say that relates to ME?’

’I’m an empath and a healer. I love to help other people. That’s just so ME, y’know?’

It absolutely is.

Because the as explicitly says it’s not the job if you want to run your own business.

There’s also a real problem with this being a ‘contractor’ position (I.e. we’ll offer no security or pay any benefits/requirements because you’re self employed) and this bit in the ‘not the job for you’ section:

‘Want to be an entrepreneur and run your own business. Our team members are “intrapreneurs.” You’ll have the freedom and flexibility to love what you do and be the best at your role, but if you want to run your own company in the near future - we are not for you.‘

speaks volumes about what a terrible employee Maisie intends to be.

My rising sun is 'OhFuckoffus', what a coincidence!

Sounds like some kind of migraine to me.

Perhaps you left behind when you failed to "bring all of yourself to work" ?

🤣🤣

The psuedo-medical tripe is the stuff of quacks.

It's age old.

What gets me is the number of idiots that fully buy into this utter codswallop!

From her Instagram: “I use a brain-meets-body approach”.

What does that even mean? My brain IS apart of my body…unless I haven’t been bringing my whole self and I’ve accidentally left it somewhere else?

😂

Remember when Jez became a life coach on Peep Show? Pretty much sums it up.

On the plus side she's getting the red flags put early in the recruitment process so those with a warning radar can be aware

Wish my toxic, narcissistic boss had done the same when I applied for a job

The people I’ve known who have done life coaching courses to be one, and, god forbid went on to do it, are usually

1. too young to have had any real experience of life
2. lack emotional intelligence and self awareness
3. have struggled in their own life with job performance or long term relationships. So they have done a course themselves to help with this. And then thought they know it all well enough to teach other people. Even without having proved they’ve learnt something for it and applied it. A sort of MLM pyramid by any other name
4. never ever have a qualification from a respected institute in “life coaching”. Because they don’t exist, good life coaches don’t call themselves that, or claim to coach someone’s life. A trained therapist, counsellor or psychologist will give you a chance to be more self aware and provide tools to help you with your own life choice

it’s sheer poppycock and a vanity project

every single one of them never created a viable business. It lasted 6 months to a maximum of 2 years, then they had to go and get a real job to support themselves.

I see what you did there 😄

Poundshop Paltrow

I'm not a Tattle user, but there is a short thread there about her. Am I right in thinking we aren't allowed to link to that site? Someone mentions seeing a job ad she put up back in summer 2021:

I saw a job listing she posted to work on her team and was really shocked and quite appalled by some of the language used and it was almost so ✨ openminded✨ that it came full circle and was quite toxic. Basically saying that to work for her you can never complain.

Anyone who gives this woman any of their money needs an intervention

I'm so shocked by the £20k for six months of weekly sessions ie 24 sessions.

Tbf if you delve into it Maisie isn't actually doing any of this 1-2-1 work - wonder why?

Indeed. My mind immediately went to having to wash out her period pants after use.

If this is the same pound shop Paltrow that one of my juniors came across she also isn't too keen on paying women to at her events because "for women" and presents as a fertility specialist with no medical, gynae, fertility or psychology qualifications.

Women's fertility is a very rich seam for snake oil sellers. "naturopathic nutrition" is currently very fashionable for fertility.
