I asked about the publication date of the book and after three days she messaged to say that the attached meme should provide an answer for me. She's clearly been asked by a few people about the book if she has gone to the trouble of creating this!

She conveniently forgets the fact the she went to whinge to her boss that the current job was too far away, too much like hard work and was going to leave unless they found her a role closer to home.
So far she claims to have manifested parking spaces and her 'dream job' which is the one she was forced to take because interestingly she hasn't yet manifested a successful coaching business.

She literally posted that she literally had a literal meeting with her manager and literally told her she was unhappy and literally wanted a job closer to home and no doubt literally mentioned the place she drives past

so her manager literally bore that in mind and mentioned it to her superiors when they were doing planning

this manifestation rubbish is a load of shit

How about the cottage in the country and the white rangey that were on her goal board (not to mention her dearest wish a few years ago, to afford another round of IVF so she could have another child. I hope she doesn’t think that never happened because she didn’t wish hard enough)

It’s like the the boss in the IT Crowd manifesting a helicopter through space star ordering, and it appears because he thought of it, then went and bought one.

So yawn will now be charging a subscription. Is that allowed?

fitgirl26 · 07/09/2024 14:00

I wonder when Yawn will get bored of the word "badass"

Twentytwentyhindsight · 07/09/2024 14:28

I know, sounds like she has an oncology issue. Hope it's sorted soon, but the presenting symptoms are talking out of your arse, and in her case they're chronic.

I think FL don't care unless it's another product based business.
There is zero regulation around all this coachy woo shit so all she needs is an FB page and a bank account and she's away.

Just caught up with Uber. I suspect that Yawns panic to establish an alternative income stream is down to Uber taking over her patch. And her choice of school for her daughter allows her to move in the groups Yawn can only dream of. However, Uber needs to be careful because FL is well known in the area and she will find it hard to push. She may find herself very much on her own at the school gate when the other mums realise she is trying to sell gloop to them.

Ah yes, using her daughter in a private school uniform to portray a successful business

I remember Castle doing the same and in both cases the school was easily identified 🙄

I wonder what the father thinks of his daughter’s photo (and whole life) being used in this way?

@dickiedavisthunderthighs could a spanner in the works for Yawn be failure to be registered with the ICO and complying with their requirements for a business holding personal information including (potentially) financial information? In an otherwise unregulated area with no rules the issue of privacy and GDPR does seem to be the one trip hazard I've seen coaches and therapists fall over. The other one is public liability insurance, which doesn't seem important to people like Yawn until it's too late.

Sugarplum48 · 07/09/2024 18:27

Well.uber cant be that skint if the kid is going to the royal grammar. That school isn't cheap. She won't be received well by the other posh mums or teacher around here if she starts peddling her flp shite. Yawn will be very envious as uber is clearly still strutting the posh life.

OhMyGiddyAunt · 07/09/2024 19:31

I wonder if her DD's Dad (who basically seemed to disappear just before she was born) contributes financially, even if he doesn't see her.

I'm pretty sure, from what Uber has said over the years, that he has nothing to do with his DD but Uber's not the sort of woman who would just sit back and do nothing, she would have pursued him for financial support (and I don't think he was short of a bob or two)

YouOKHun · 07/09/2024 19:37

@Angrymum22 yes, Yawnsville has always seemed to have been an FLP stronghold which must now mean that many people are aware and have been approached more than once. Those of you who know the area have said on a number of occasions I think, that the pool of victims gets smaller and the reputation of Yawn et al is well known in the area. Uber will hoover up anyone who isn't resistant leaving Yawn free to play make believe. But Uber is going to have a lonely time at the school gates these days whatever the type of school. The pandemic drew negative attention to MLM antics and really seemed to kill off tolerance of them among those who were previously only vaguely aware of them.

@Sugarplum48 the private school uniform is good for 'attraction marketing' but you're right, there are unlikely to be rich pickings among the parent body these days. In fact, one whiff of MLM and Uber will be out in the cold. The prep schools around my neck of the woods don't allow MLM to set up shop at school fairs etc. These events are often organised by parents so the MLM ban has come from them. A decade ago they seemed to be tolerated, not now. I imagine that's increasingly the case elsewhere. Same in the two primary schools near me except for the presence of an Usbourne book seller twiddling her thumbs at one school's summer fete.

terrywynne · 07/09/2024 19:41

What happened to Ubers sister? She seemed fed up with the yoga mat cheques and had since completely disappeared from Ubers socials... Her mum doesn't feature much but still more than the sister.

Spongebobette · 07/09/2024 19:45

I’m sure she’s still a useful downline, like her mum

Uber is all about manipulating the system

Looking on YouTube, there seems to be an oversupply of IVF coaches

OP posts:
YouOKHun · 07/09/2024 22:30

Another useful downline is JL bot who appears to do nothing FLP-wise yet still managed to appear on FLP's top 20 for total business a few weeks ago. How does that work?

I had a look at JL's website and she says that what drew her to NWM (FLP or Uber probably told her to keep FLP's name out of it) was the opportunity to start a risk free business. She doesn't say why she gave up her risk free business to become yet another NWM coach. Presumably because of the risk of appearing on the insolvency register for a second time. Looking at the companies her partner is juggling it may be her destiny even without FLP's help.

Sugarplum48 · 08/09/2024 11:31

Why is yawn still trying to convince people she's into LOA woo bullcrap? She is so stupidly see through it's unreal. That gormless husband is simply enabling the playgroup make believe.

Travel who knows how many miles (at your own expense) to sit in a big house that was effectively paid for by previous gullible fools recruits to listen to a load of waffle about how you can allegedly also make a lot of money!
