botwatch 82!! The latest thread in a very long series about the deceptions practised by mlms. Unbelievably people are still being hooked in by these schemes where 97 of those who join lose money?

Castle has jumped on the menopause bandwagon! Apparently no one talks about it so she is. 🙄 Obviously an easy way to increase engagement on her posts.

ticktock19 · 13/05/2024 12:45

Fierce was apparently in floods of tears last night as she is returning to the office today for the first time in 3 years and her maternity leave is ending. This comes after her posting 9 days ago that for the next 6 weeks she was spending all her time on the beach 'by the ocean' as summer has arrived.

For Yawn’s information, crows as a species are far more successful as a species. Their diversification is part of their success.
And if you know anything about birds they attack raptors during the breeding season because the raptors target their nests for eggs and young.
A little more research needed before using crows and eagles as a metaphor.

MaybeItsJustTimeToStop · 13/05/2024 16:26

Headband is also posting about eagles. I do wonder what nurses trust would think of her sm, most have a policy about not posting work things where she is going on about how much she hates it whilst wearing the lanyard. I wonder what happened to yawns programme she was following a couple of months ago, guess it's the same as C25K

We have had a couple of mentions of Belief Coding on here haven't we? There's currently a post on the Reddit Anti-MLM sub about someone who tried a session offered by a friend. They left before the end... It sounds very sketchy!

YouOKHun · 13/05/2024 17:14

@terrywynne yep, I’m following Apprentice Bot and her cure all coaching/therapy offering with interest. She’s recently paired up with Castle much in the manner of Ninja I should think; to see if there are any followers of Castle’s worth rinsing.

She seems to be picking up would be therapists and coaches but also, concerningly, some really vulnerable people who hope it will be the answer to their poor mental health and in a few cases will help them when they have a specific diagnosis. One woman I saw had a psychiatric diagnosis and a personality disorder and had been trying to ‘do belief coding right’ for nearly a year, she’d spent over £2k on it.

It’s hard to know what it costs as there are layers of Lives and seminars which appear free, presumably for them to filter until only the vulnerable are left. She’s saying it’s “being researched” and is evidence based which just means she’s copied and pasted a few phrases from another evidence-based approach but people are falling for it. It’s all very MLM.

Thanks for the Reddit mention, I’ll go and have a read of that.

YouOKHun · 13/05/2024 18:48

That Reddit thread is concerning, as is the thread from a year ago. A commercial cult without a doubt. Her CH accounts don’t look too bouyant and she’s late filing them.

Ladiva1971 · 13/05/2024 19:52

Looks like Specsaver bot isn't welcome in Dunhelm any more.

lol! She’s still name checking them though, wonder what they think of that

@Ladiva1971 where did you spot that?! I think the Dunelm branch and Dunelm itself got some negative feedback from some of us and who knows who else. When I looked into it I was slightly disturbed to see the mutually beneficial relationship UW has with major retailers which probably accounts for their continued presence in the entrance to B&Q! However I couldn’t see any links between Dunelm and an MLM and the feedback might have persuaded Dunelm and its branches to look more closely at who exactly they’re inviting into their stores under the guise of “small local business/supporting the local community”.

Ladiva1971 · 13/05/2024 20:42

On her page she looking at other venues

Contraryjane · 13/05/2024 22:47

Yawn can do no wrong in the eyes of NoDust Bot. She is, I fear, not bright, and sycophantly fawns over her. I feel sorry for her.

“When my UK Tour is over I’ll be getting ready to go to Cannes in Paris”

quote from Yawn, international traveller and complete arse.

Sugarplum48 · 14/05/2024 07:18

A direct complaint was made to the organisation that gave specsaver the opportunity to get in at dunelm. They advised that they had no idea she was in a mlm and wouldn't of allowed her to set up if she had been transparent which she hadn't been by their own admission

Sugarplum48 · 14/05/2024 12:50

Did Cannes move? I know the world is in turmoil but that's extreme 🤣🤣

Sugarplum48 · 14/05/2024 14:16

Castle only interactive with yes women on her menopause post.. one lady said it how it was making reference to vulnerable women being taken advantage of. No surprise Castle didn't react to that. Give it a week and she'll be trying to rinse women of miney for "advice". She's vile.

PieonaBarm · 14/05/2024 14:50

Why is everyone they work with "gorgeous" or "fabulous" or "fantastic" as in "just had a meeting with the gorgeous Brenda"??

Spongebobette · 14/05/2024 15:31

‘Lovely ladies’ makes my teeth itch

Yawn, yet again making her online sessions look as if there are more attendees.
She's put her pic in 3 times, another lady twice. Talk about rent a crowd. Could at least put some different faces in!

Butterflyfluff · 14/05/2024 16:38

And where does she get her numbers from - £800 rent but £450 for gas and electricity! She’s such a fool.

Brenda’s only gorgeous as long as Brenda is buying her body weight in aloe vera. Even a tiny resistance to the pressure or voicing a doubt and Brenda becomes Negative Loser Brenda. Brenda is going to be quite shocked how little it takes to find herself frozen out and becoming Brenda with a garage full of product and a bank empty of funds.

It was the £180 a month car insurance that made me lol...is that why you got rid of the Rangy Yawn 😂.

Norma27 · 14/05/2024 19:48

As someone who knows- yawn saying her down line works for NCA could get that person the sack!

Norma27 · 14/05/2024 19:51

I work for someone yawn would dread! I’m not allowed to show lanyards , say who I work for etc.
yawn- I’m watching you though!
