My goodness could Nurse’s AMA questions be more blatantly written by her??!!!!

No shit, Sherlock!

From a quick glance at Nurse's Insta followers they seem to be other mindset/inspirational quote meme posting coaches and probably quite a few botwatchers. She also has 2Jags and Castle following her who are there not for Nurse's running commentary on her life but to pick over all those other coaches who follow Nurse, each with a neon sign above their heads saying 'gullible'. The answer to the questions she's asked herself all flash by so quickly on stories that I'm none the wiser anyway.

I see Nurse says she will be spilling the beans later this week on 'the perfect job' which is in the pipeline and which was meant to be. It has been sent by the universe only now because it's the right time. Honestly I'd have a few sharp words the Universe if I was you Nurse. The Universe has made you these kind of promises before and then failed to deliver (apart from the boxes of FLP product, it delivered those in abundance). Tell the universe that you can't hang around forever waiting for it to land in your lap while treading water year after year.

Was it John LenHun who said, 'Life is what happens when you're busy manifesting'?

Spongebobette · 05/08/2024 14:33

Interesting
The perfect job surely involves no work at all and plenty of time for ‘chilling’

@mm81736 blimey that was a bit agressive!

DeliaDeetz · 05/08/2024 15:38

As predicted, questions about the book and someone apparently thinking about IVF in the future!
Pretty sure every time she does one of these, there is one that's "not a question but thanks for your honesty on Instagram".

Nurse obviously can't wait to tell everyone about her new "perfect opportunity" and that's more than likely what prompted the Q & A. She is desperate to believe that all the manifesting works, what going to happen if yet again this doesn't work out as she wants?

Spongebobette · 05/08/2024 16:27

My prediction is that she whinged to her manager about all the travel and threatened to quit

so she’s going to be offered a role where she works from home all the time

Ooh. Yawn has slipped in a bit of passive aggression to her latest post.

Looks she went for a run in the woods on a humid day and didn’t shower before ‘back to back meetings’ online for 4.5 hours 😬

I see Yawn has a new recruit who thinks FLP is going to be a good way to top up her pension. What an absolute joke.

Yawn has also shared the screen of another recruit's children. No names shared but it's not appropriate. They already have a successful business apparently so let's hope they come to their senses.

Another person plans to introduce FLP collagen and weight loss products to her salon clients which Yawn says is smart business sense. I've known quite a few established salon owners try this with MLM products and it never goes well. Traditionally because of the cost of products which is very relevant right now and these days a level of awareness and hostility to MLM which can only add to the challenge. A great way to alienate the clients she has.

Where have these pension holders, business owners and salon owners been? Have they not read anything about MLM?

Spongebobette · 06/08/2024 06:55

It amazes me that there’s anyone left who’s not heard of MLMs

you are right that it’s offputting to add MLM products to your legitimate business

there’s a beauty salon near me and I was going to book an appointment then saw the owner is a bot and changed my mind

YouOKHun · 06/08/2024 11:23

@Spongebobette I've done the same when I've seen MLM product in a salon. I'm either going to get the hard sell or they are going to start using products I want nothing to do with.

Whenever I see a legitimate business with MLM bolted on the side it's always a red flag to me. If they aren't aware of MLM and can't do the sums what sort of business are they running? Is the MLM a misguided attempt to rescue a business that isn't working?

If I see someone with what looks like a good career and an MLM side hustle I immediately assume there is something amiss. I don't think they must be a multi-tasking hard worker, I think their judgement is up for question and/or they are not competent at their real job or, if they have a downline, I assume they have a disregard for other people. This is probably unfair of me but MLM taints the CV IMHO.

I thought it was just me with my particular dislike of MLM but it seems to raise doubts for non Botwatchers too. I know of people who have been moved to the "no" pile for interview when an MLM side hustle has come to light. Not just because they have what looks like a distraction but because of the specific nature of the side hustle.

In other news, Yawn has missed out number 7 on her list of six good things about her off the lead dog lighting off after two deer. So I'm adding it.

  1. If your dog has poor recall when there are running deer it's a good job there was no livestock and no farmer with a shotgun.
Sugarplum48 · 06/08/2024 17:08

Why is yawn all of a sudden into all this weird woo codswallop? banging on about finding positives in frankly chaotic situtations like your dog going feral and chasing deer which is a massive no no then banging on about laminating goal boards to stick in the shower? she really has dived right into the mad world of woo magic. Is it all just for likes or is she really running out of content to get engagement?

Contraryjane · 06/08/2024 18:20

I saw her post on Instagram about planning. She was sitting in front of a daft large piece of paper with various coloured writing. Yawn, that is not how you run a business. It’s how you run the Brownies. On a bad day.
And if your big dog has no recall, it’s because you’ve never let her off the lead.

Freedbagforlife · 06/08/2024 18:33

I follow someone who has phases of pushing Lumispa, is it really £400 to wash your face?

OhMyGiddyAunt · 06/08/2024 19:15

I've just noticed that Yawn describes herself as a "LOA & Manifesting Student" on her Insta biog - is that new or have I just never noticed it before?

It seems to fit with her recent leaning towards the woo bollocks.

Angrymum22 · 06/08/2024 19:35

So now Yawn is a “product promoter” not a sales person or a bizniz owner. Product promoter suggests influencer and is highly misleading to the naive who have no experience MLM but would be very interested in being an influencer, coz everyone knows how lucrative that is ( another CF’s paradise).
I suspect HQ are not going to be happy with her Q&A post.

Butterflyfluff · 06/08/2024 20:00

OMFG - Yawn says she has earned a six figure income for the last 11 years.

Surely she needs to get kicked out for that alone.

YouOKHun · 06/08/2024 20:46

@Butterflyfluff that is an epic lie from Yawn and hugely misleading. Truth In Advertising can add that to their FLP dossier re false income claims.

Twentytwentyhindsight · 06/08/2024 21:00

I am not able to access my bot-stalking burner account right now, so I can't check the wording of Yawn's latest income claim.
It is quite possible that she has 'earned' six figures over the last eleven years'. But that is cumulatively.
Similarly, someone on minimum wage would earn roughly £200,000 'over' 11 years.
In fact, all it takes is a little over £9k annually to achieve 'six figures over 11 years'...

Butterflyfluff · 06/08/2024 21:15

Exact quote

“I started my business to earn an extra £200 a month, 15 years ago. I listened to what I was told & did it, within 10 weeks I was earning £1000 per month, within 4 years I was earning a six figure income, my husband then quit his job and joined me, I have maintained that income for the last 11 years - this has given us choices, time freedom, financial freedom & peace of mind”

PieonaBarm · 06/08/2024 21:37

Six figure income can be £1000.00 there's still 6 figures there!

Or is she referring to her weight loss, she's banged on about it enough to know she's gone down 6 dress sizes, so therefore has had 6 figures over the last few years??

deviantfeline · 07/08/2024 02:34

Specsavers minion posted about making her first sale yesterday. She been doing it since May and paid out to attend a 'success' day in June.

So that's going well then.

😮 surely nobody in their right mind is buying those? I wouldn't be able to look someone I'm the face and ask them for that much money for an MLM product.
