I find nurse very worrying. She's a mental health professional . I presume she must have a degree to be a nurse. Yet she seems so naive, lacking the capacity for independent or critical thinking and constantly gets embroiled in scam "get rich quick" schemes

HairyMcLarie · 12/12/2022 17:47

Nurse said in her live 'it will happen because when I want something I do everything to go and get it and so it always happens ... that's just me down to a 't''

Heard her say that several times over the FL days.

Also she said her new business 'will have an element of coaching but not until later on'

Also sounds like she's been on sick leave for quite some time?

YouOKHun · 12/12/2022 18:34

Nurse has a Dip HE qualification as a nurse and has done the job for a long time but it doesn’t mean she is qualified to undertake other roles under the mental health banner. I suspect she has been trapped in her job for years without the necessary application to change it to another related role which would require further training.

I see she started offering “affordable private therapy” at the beginning of September so I expect her new business will be a coachy/therapy mishmash that will be largely ignored just like her previous quick career fix options. I hope that’s the case because I’m not sure she’s a safe pair of hands given her judgement. I wouldn’t mind betting she’s not insured to practice therapy privately, and is she registered with the ICO etc etc? Insurance seems like a boring detail until it all goes wrong and something happens to the client whose last contact was with a therapist - seen it happen.

While she’s been messing around and spending money on FLP, Scamversity and the like she could have retrained into a related MH role, earning while training and ended up with a much less stressful role in primary care for example.

I see on one post she said she had exciting things planned “soon” or some other phrase that was suitably vague. I think she’s one of those who likes to keep their dreams safely on the distant horizon where she doesn’t need to do any donkey work to make them happen and can just keep “manifesting” until there’s a happy accident and something positive happens to her, while ignoring all the shite and chaos caused by “living her dreams”. Until she wakes up she shouldn’t be coaching or offering therapy to anyone.

Castles AirB&B going well. 2023 bookings flying off the shelf, a week in March, a week in May, a week in July and the beginning of September. And they're probably when she's planning to come home!

worcestersauce29 · 12/12/2022 20:00

Correct me if I'm wrong but didn't Yawn say that she was having December off?

Shortpoet · 12/12/2022 20:03

I’ve just had an email from Fierce about Castle revealing tonight her biggest secret at 8pm (now!) no replay.

Are we allowed to post email content verbatim if we hide names and links?

Spongebobette · 12/12/2022 20:22

Yes

Oh I hope so @Shortpoet ! Can’t believe Castle has yet another revelation for us as I’m sure she has revealed her “biggest secret ever” a few times before. What is the secret - that she’s a lazy arse? That cat’s out of the designer bag already.

in other news I’ve just asked PhD why she put punctuation marks in all her financial words on FB. She replied with a laughing emoji and said “the FB algorithm”. I said “oh I see, FB is scanning for any words that look like unregulated (by the FCA) and unqualified financial advice?”.

Her response “erm no, [laughing emoji] it scans for anything related to money & suppresses it so that you pay to pay. I don't offer financial advice”.

She doesn’t make much sense and no one else does this so why does she?

what DO you offer exactly PhD?

fromdownwest · 12/12/2022 20:42

Question for Castle.

Why on earth would I want business advice from a woman who proclaims to have run multi 7 figure businesses over the last 5 years, and also now proclaims to have never hit a business target.

YouOKHun · 12/12/2022 20:42

@worcestersauce29 only seven posts today that I can see and only some of them with a desperate ring to them. That’s “time freedom” MLM style. This is all done in her small pockets of time! Plenty of time left to paint a payee of French Chic over every surface, patch up the leaking thatch and rearrange the step ladders!

Castle’s BIGGEST SECRET Revealed - One night Only!

Can you believe it? After a mind-blowing masterclass, Castle did for Students Only the response revealed that this is something that MORE people just need to know.

Castle has been so honest & vulnerable & admitted she hadn’t set a goal she went on to achieve for YEARS!!! Yes, years!

But, she’s figured it out & the goals are being absolutely smashed out of the park because of one HUGE difference.

She will share this tonight - There will be no replay!

Make sure you join her live at 8 pm 👇

YouOKHun · 12/12/2022 20:48

@fromdownwest good question. Isn’t she an eight figure business owner though (I’m sure it went from 6 to 8)? Perhaps her bizniz target is to be a nine figure biz owner. She needs to rent that AirBnB out on a more regular basis to move herself closer to her goal. At the moment it sounds like she’s her own best paying guest 🙄.

There really is no hope for the people who have yet to see straight through her.

Shortpoet · 12/12/2022 20:55

I dialled in for the first bit.

First is that Castle is going to be really naughty and allow people to join mid-term even though Fierce said at the start of term that wouldn’t be allowed. But if everyone signed up before midnight, she would tell Fierce in the morning what she had done and it would be ok. Tee hee.

(Manipulation technique: scarcity)

Oh and it’s not a university, it’s just a bit like one.
Which is why they use the term “students” and have jackets.

She talked through the curriculum. Mentioned she’d set up two 7 figure businesses.

The the big secret was all about the difference between goals and intention.

A goal is something you set for the future so it always remains in the future.
An intention is a feeling you have about your goal and you can have that feeling right now.

Then there was an exercise about choosing your goal, working out how you would feel if you achieved it, then getting that feeling right now.

(She said to write it down, but hide it from husbands in case they think your mad. Manipulation technique: isolation from loved ones)

Had to log off at this point - so missed what came after.

But his lovely to have your “students” wafting around feeling successful without actually have to achieve their goals.

Shortpoet · 12/12/2022 20:58

I appreciate there are typos in my post,
*you’re
*how lovely

but the weird grammar in the email is direct copy and paste.

Spongebobette · 12/12/2022 21:15

Thank you for listening to the inanity for us!

right up the likes of Nurse’s street. Think of lovely outcomes and imagine they are happening

I've cracked the codes for all the others...

Could someone give a name clue for Castle please...I want to book the Air B&B Halo

BSintolerant · 12/12/2022 22:46

Castle’s shares her first name with a Jane Austen novel. You can’t expect me to reveal her surname “just like that!”

It isn’t Persuasion Tommy. 😉

@Spongebobette 🤣🤣You’re about as close as Castle was to hitting her business goals!

That woman couldn’t hit a cow’s arse with a banjo.

Do people really buy second hand sports bras? Yawn is desperate to get some money isn’t she?

The stench of MLM hangs in the air … be your own best customer and all that jazz.

I wonder if Castle will leave a sign by her h.o.b. for those few paying guests which reads, “NO DANCING (EVEN WHEN NOBODY’S WATCHING)!”? She could ask Yawn to knock one up for her with a few twigs and a dash of Frenchic and gold leaf. 😉

Castle’s ex BFF’s Insta is SO BORING AND REPETITIVE
she has about 4 or 5 ideas that she recycles

.... also, when is she going to wake up to the fact that she both has and is promoting, disordered eating.

She frequently witters on about how little she's eaten (usually nothing but a Starbucks, glass of wine and some sweets by the evening) and that she needs to eat proper food and then next minute is popping fat blockers like they're going out of fashion.
