yawn and I used to run together. We trained for a 10K together and agreed we would run it together on the day. I had a bad hip at the time but still turned up, and she ended up going off ahead so she could finish before me. Then we trained for a half marathon together, and in the end she didn’t even sign up for it and I ended up running it on my own. But that’s another story.
Anyway, during those runs I told her about an idea I’d had back in 2016. My concept was to create an online platform where I could teach people about fitness education, food education, and mindset around behaviour change and sustainable habits. That was the original concept for what later became the 666 Method.
At the time she was doing Lucky Girl, and she said to me that she thought we should do this together because it sounded like a really good idea. I had been sitting on the idea for so long, and because I have autism and ADHD, I often struggle to get things off the ground. So I thought, actually, doing it with her might help bring my vision into reality because she seemed good at getting things started. Like many people, I bought into the image she presented.
So we started working on it. I was filming the workouts, creating recipes, and writing all of the mindset worksheets and educational material. Ironically, she called herself a mindset coach, but she didn’t actually do any of the mindset work at all. The whole concept and framework were my idea and my work.
She then convinced me to put the method inside the Build a bear platform. Once it went in there, things started to change. Suddenly my kitchen wasn’t nice enough to film recipe videos in because “it’s on the app” and “people are paying good money for it,” and maybe we should film in her studio kitchen instead.
There were already a few red flags at that point because the way she builds her businesses is very much based on the idea of presenting herself as the aspirational figure — “look at me, look at my life, I’m amazing and you should want to be like me.” That approach is the complete opposite of my vision.
My ethos behind the method is that my life is messy and chaotic. I’m a normal woman. I’ve been overweight and I’ve been fit. I’m neurodivergent. I have a young son with ADHD. My life isn’t polished or perfect, and that’s exactly the point. I show people the small things I do daily to keep myself on track, because if I can do it in a chaotic life, then anyone can.
But once the programme was inside her platform, suddenly my content wasn’t slick enough, polished enough, or “professional” enough. She kept pushing to change parts of the method, and my response was always the same: this is my mission and my purpose. Not everything is meant for everyone. Some people will love it, some people won’t, and that’s okay.
However, because her focus is on maximum reach and maximum income, she wanted it to appeal to absolutely everyone so everyone could be a paying customer.
The point where everything really unravelled was when she sent me a “Beginner’s Guide” booklet for the method that she had written. When I opened it, it was the complete opposite of everything the method stands for. It contained misinformation and things she simply isn’t qualified to speak about.
I spent about four hours rewriting and editing the document to make it accurate and to reflect the actual ethos and science behind the method. Then I went on her Instagram stories and saw that at eight o’clock that morning she had already gone online telling everyone she had created this amazing booklet and explaining all the things that were in it.
So there I was rewriting the entire thing while she had already publicly claimed it as her own work.
After that we had a back and forth about the booklet because she insisted it needed to be a four-week weight loss plan. That is the exact opposite of what the method is about. I tried to explain that the whole point is behaviour change, habits, education, and long-term lifestyle change — not quick weight loss plans. But she wouldn’t listen.
I then went on holiday and decided to leave it alone for a bit. While I was away, she created a four-week event inside the group without even speaking to me about it. When I saw it, I asked what it was. She said it would be an accountability programme where she would talk people through the method.
When I looked at the schedule, it was things like “Build and Burn” and “Shape and Sculpt.” I asked why she had scheduled those sessions without even checking my availability — especially when I’m the one actually qualified to teach that material.
Her response was that she felt she was more than qualified to talk about her life experience.
At that point I realised I was banging my head against a brick wall. You can’t argue with someone who refuses to listen.
This was my method, my programme, and my professional reputation. If someone gets hurt or receives misinformation, it comes back to me because my name is attached to it. I’m not about spreading misinformation or promoting quick-fix diets. I believe in evidence-based education, proper exercise principles, and ethical guidance.
I’m not going to tell people to live off salads and protein shakes for four weeks just so they can take a before-and-after photo and then sell more programmes.
That is absolutely not what I stand for.
So at that point I realised I needed to get out of the situation, and that’s what ultimately led me to walk away .
