Strange how someone who markets herself as a top business woman and who pushes planners to all her minions so they can be super-organised, fails to get a passport photo done in time for one of her kids despite having weeks in which to do it.

Maybe she should have asked her parents to do it seeing as they seem to be left with the kids most of the time.

She’s a paradox.

I’m super organised and I get stuff done…oh but I need someone to walk me to
My home gym and cook me food, when she goes I go back to normal!

Spongebobette · 17/08/2021 10:31

Castle flicks between 'look at me, I'm just like you, so normal and a bit ditsy and have a crazy life'
and
'look at me I'm a super- organised business woman who runs three businesses around two kids’

Also
What is the actual matter with PhD bot?

She makes no sense at all

BangingOn · 17/08/2021 10:53

@9dartfinish2nd I will be interested to watch that, LuLaRoe is a whole other level of crazy.

Spongebobette · 17/08/2021 10:56

Oh Nurse
Demo of that bloody eye cream in the dark AGAIN and really excellent marketing line ‘it’s no longer 20% off’
Do they teach them nothing on these ‘trainings’?

PS we know your mum uses the same cream - because she is your only customer 🙄

Waveafterwaveslowlydrifting · 17/08/2021 11:03

Castle had a brainwave a few months back that 'keeping it real' would endear her to the masses. It just makes her look whiny, attention seeking and a bit inadequate. Should have used your pro planner to schedule that passport application hun!

And what's with the constant hourly live updates of her boring life? Child is eating, child is off to nursery, nurse of off to work, eye cream again in the dark.

Clearly she's been given some 'tips' to "share your lifestyle, attract people!" And she's got it seriously wrong.

I watched nurse's stories yesterday. She had a few stories that showed her in a different light where she was talking about mental health and anxiety and she appeared competent, knowledgeable and intelligent. It was stark in the contrast to her usually babble of inane 'engagement post' nonsense. I remembered she is actually a mental health nurse? And therefore has skills and competencies that we don't see, because it's obscured by being botted. Sad.
Spongebobette · 17/08/2021 15:16

Yes I suppose that what she’s learned from Yawn’s super professional ‘training’
Share your life as some kind of attraction marketing

grumpytoddler1 · 17/08/2021 20:57

I'm late to the party but have just discovered Ms Sponlie. Love her.

Waveafterwaveslowlydrifting · 18/08/2021 13:27

Omg. A colleague of mine, a teacher, has just signed up to FL. She's just had a baby and doesn't want to return to work full time. 😩

YouokHun · 18/08/2021 13:35

Oh dear @Waveafterwaveslowlydrifting. I feel for your friend because that’s going to be an expensive mistake. The other concern is that she bring may bring her FLP into school. There was a teacher at my children’s junior school who lost her job over her use of school data and the parent network to expand her reach (Arbonne in her case). She started out a perfectly sensible woman but as we know the pressure from uplines and the financially precarious state MLM puts people in means that they end up doing whatever they can.

Have you said anything to her?

Spongebobette · 18/08/2021 14:01

Oh how depressing

Primary or Secondary?

If she thinks she can replace a teacher’s salary, pension, holidays with an income from FL she’s very very wrong

Sadly I think she’ll be tempted to use work as a place to sell/ build her network

Waveafterwaveslowlydrifting · 18/08/2021 14:02

Not yet. She is spamming the local fb groups advertising products and pamper parties. Could get awkward if parents are involved.

VolcanicEruption · 18/08/2021 16:20

Why does Castle need 3 fb pages to say the same thing. Is this how she organises? I await the happy family videos of their new adventure.🤣
Why is Yawn giving a tour of an empty gym. I think they saw her arrival and fled.

Yep, agree @Waveafterwaveslowlydrifting it’s really a problem if she recruits someone where there is crossover with her teaching role. The negative possibilities are many for her and her colleagues and the parents. She WILL have to tap into her direct network as she’s highly unlikely to get interest in amongst all the other MLM people offering overpriced meh product, after all that is what FLP wants to get its hands on - her network. Hopefully she’ll be one of the lucky ones who decides early it’s not for her.

Oh no Sad.

Teachers can take off a year before returning to work so hopefully she will have that opportunity to find out how toxic MLM and fl in particular is. Keep us posted though
@Waveafterwaveslowlydrifting.

I knew a young teacher a few years ago who got into Arbonne Sad. She was gorgeous looking but came to work for a while wearing too much make up and sent an emal to staff once (thankfully) promoting Arbonne. I think someone from management had a quiet word because she never mentioned it again. Lots of staff made pity purchases initially...not me though Grin.

Waveafterwaveslowlydrifting · 19/08/2021 08:47

Yes, her baby is 6 months old. Hopefully she won't waste too much money on it. Other members of staff at my place do body shop and tropic and leave catalogues in the staff room sometimes, obviously I have never bought anything from them!

PieonaBarm · 19/08/2021 10:28

Yawn has done a new reel. She thinks she's some kind of social media expert now, she claimed she's been watched by another team in FL and was invited to lecture them on her social media success. Why do these grown women insist on doing these awful reels, their kids must be so embarrassed!!

She literally did a reel saying she's been told to use reels to promote her business. She's such a liar. Who told her - Uber? They are all so cringe
fromdownwest · 19/08/2021 10:44

Ubers reels are something else, If i posted that on my time line, my friends would have a quiet word with me, and some friends not so quiet!

They truly are terrible, but brilliant at the same time. Out of sync lip sync with a splatter of dad wedding dancing. Perfect!

Excellent article, full of truth bombs and FACTS

It’s about Yawn but some of her downline copied and pasted the same Q and A
