I wonder if she will ever apologize to the customer she callled out and commented about in the mass email in May? She seems more self righteous than ever. Yeah, we do crazy things and say mean things, but we cannot blame it on our ailments (her case anxiety). She owes that commenter a public apology.

Still say this to myself anytime I’ve been wronged. Yes, my Ex thinks he did nothing wrong, it was all me. While I did not get an 'apology' exactly, he has said more than once that he should not have asked for/ insisted on the divorce- so i am going to take that as an apology and move on.   ( notice i said move on - not backwards ) I'll move on and be thankful, because I am a happier self since we are divorced and i probably owe that to him. I most likely would never have gotten up the guts to file for divorce myself being as i don't believe in it. I do feel kinda sorta bad for him when he says he is miserable but it was his choice, more like his insistence, so there isn't anything i can do about it. It's a big ole 'you made your bed now lie in it' thing for him. All of that to say your right, she will never apologize, it wasn't a 'mistake' on her (BH ) part, that was her real self. And her real self isn't so 'pretty' or nice. She tanked her own business and in her mind it's everyone's fault but her own. Mean while people pretty much begged her for what they wanted from her company but she ignored them all. She's the type of person who in her mind 'she's right' always, no matter what, it's her way or it's wrong, and thats how/who she is. That won't change. Now she can deal with the consequences and if she's not exactly happy how it turned out it's really all on her. We can sit back and have empathy, ( something she seems incapable of ) for her but we can't help her. |

I know you're going to be shocked to hear this, but it looks like the Movara family is NOT going to cram 8 people into an RV for a full year after all. Who could have seen that it would be an ENORMOUS challenge to shove 8 people eating, cleaning, sleeping, schooling, showering into a cramped space - esp. once the summer weather is over. Thankfully, "heavenly father" helped them see what any sane rational person saw a few months ago. That stunts like this are ridiculous desperate ploys for attention. http://instagram.com/p/B0h23euF6x3 |

Wait. So the whole point of the trip was to spend the time together as a family before the oldest graduates high school and instead they’re sending that child home to live with “friends and family” for 15 weeks?! Awesome.

I can't believe that they'd actually take the kid out of school for senior year!! It's the capstone of all their schooling, there are so many fun things that the seniors get to do. Sounds super selfish to me. You want to spend time as a family? Do a vacation that doesn't take all year. SMH.

Sounds super selfish to me. You want to spend time as a family? Do a vacation that doesn't take all year. SMH. You can spend time with your family while not dragging your child around in an RV or even being on vacation. It is incredibly selfish of the parents. I would have been livid if my mom had pulled me out of school for senior year and I was not overly sociable or involved in school groups. If you want to spend time with your kids have family dinners, have game nights, plan a weekend activity, invite their friends along for some things. Part of being a parent is letting your children have their own lives and interests and encouraging them. I have no idea who these people are (are they the bucket list family) but they sound awfully self absorbed. |

A few weeks back they stopped to see Becky Higgins before moving on to their next location. And she's going back to see them in the fall w/her loyal fangirls in tow. Imagine! Being able to work out right next to BH!!! My! Here was their original intention: "Why Travel in a 300 Sq. Ft. RV for a Year? Why we are leaving a beautiful 10,000 sq ft. home, work, friends, sports, and hobbies to travel in a 300 sq ft. RV for a year. During our fall break our family rented an RV and took a trip to Moab, Ut. As we were driving with our family all together with no football, baseball, basketball, friends, cheer, tumbling, or dance, I was reminded that we only have one more year before our oldest, Bryson, will be graduating from High School. Bryson was 1 when Cameron and I started Movara and although we love everything that our kids are involved in, between their busy schedules and our work, the past 17yrs have flown by. Although the years of diapers, nursing, and strollers I don’t miss, I do not want to look back and regret the many hours we were busy working. For years we have provided a life changing experience for over 18,000 guests. While driving with our kids in the RV, I had a life changing idea we could do as a family. I asked everyone what they thought about traveling around the United States for our last year together as a family. With 50 states and 52 weeks in a year, I thought we could visit each state for a week, give or take. As the idea evolved, I thought it would be fun to visit our guests that have come to Movara from all over the United States by hosting Morava events along the way where guests could reconnect and reset with a mini experience they could share with Family and Friends. We have had a very successful business and while being known as The Biggest Loser Resort from 2009-2014 we were very busy. Before and since the NBCs show, guests always say, “we are the best kept secret.” After 17 years of providing an effective program that has built its success off of repeat and referral customers, we are excited to let the secret out as we share our message of hope, support and improvement across the United States. We are excited for the memories, the education and the learning that will take place over the next 12 months. The timing of where we are in our business allows us to be away. We have an amazing staff who works hard to provide the life changing experience. We are very confident in their abilities while we are gone. We will continue to stay in constant communication but will also be letting them do what they do best. Michelle Kelsch | Founder " f8moves.com/our-why/Movara owners, Cameron and Michelle, are taking their family of 8 around the country for 52 weeks and are excited to connect with our movara family along the way. They will be hosting 11 mini movara events in your areas. Watch for more details coming soon. You can follow their adventure on Instagram and Facebook @f8movesus or f8movesus.com … exact venue locations will be announced soon. Here are the event dates. June 7-8, 2019 Seattle, Washington June 28-29, 2019 Northern California Aug. 30-31, 2019 Illinois Sept. 13-14, 2019 Upstate New York Oct. 18-19, 2019 New York City Dec. 13-14, 2019 Virginia Jan. 3-4, 2020 Florida Feb. 21-22, 2020 Texas April 17-18, 2020 Colorado May 1-2, 2020 Southern California May 22-23, 2020 Utah I wonder which will be their last 'event'? |

You all have me curious about these people now! I googled their events and they had one in Seattle that cost 175.
This is what it included.
“Friday Evening
7-9pm Welcome Celebration
Saturday Morning
Morning Walk 8:00am-9:30am
Movara Tools Workshop 10-12pm
Toning, Stretch, Boxing, Nutrition, and Exercise Tips
Event includes Movara Swag: Water bottle, recipe cards, Movara granola, snacks and Movara planner, etc.
There will be snacks at the end of the morning walk and provided during check-in, but meals will not be provided.”
That is some serious Ali Edwards inflated pricing right there.
Also , reading just 3 or 4 of their Instagram posts she sounds very negative and kind of a downer. She must be a delight to travel with in such cramped quarters. Granted, they seem to have had some bad luck with their vehicle, but every post I read she was griping about something,
These are the people who gleefully talked about being “homeless” right?

Ugh. The description of her kids.  It seems like she does try to come off with a sarcastic sense of humor, but it sounds mean. I really feel for them especially since they are all about health. What kid wants to be on display when they might struggle with weight, acne, insecurities...

Good lord. That was painful. The woman had no writing skills at all, she should have just used bullet points or hired someone to write the bios. Seriously, 4th graders at my school write much better biographical statements about themselves. I did laugh about how much she wrote about the first kid and by the time she got to the last kid there was about 4 sentences! |

Becky Higgins will never apologize and admit that her "panic attack" was her fault. I'm afraid that her continue talk about the panic attack will cause her followers to forget she was a straight up bitch on National Scrapbooking Day to all the people that help fund her "break".
If this Movara woman, who seems awfully self-centered, is the woman in charge of Becky Higgins therapy I would be worried. In the 5 minutes I scanned their social media it appears that they thought they would be the next Bucket List Family and that didn't work out. It seems like many of the days they were supposed to be RVing it, were actually in hotels (AKA probably hosted by other Mormon families). These parents are really selfish with thinking their son would be ok with missing his senior year and then rather than just calling it done- considering they have a place to go back to- they are sending him off. Weird.
This circle they run in is so small, it's bizarre. I'm not sure how you go to one "wellness retreat" and then become BBFs with each other.

10,000 sq ft. home?!! Damn! That's a nice little château, not a home.  How crazy is the heating/cooling bill? Who cleans all of this? How do you communicate that it's dinner time? I have so many questions but, actually, so little fucks to give... Poverty fetishism is so bourgeois and incredibly disrespectful. There's nothing fun or funny about actual homelessness. Don't publicly brag about being without a home when you're absolutely not and just taking a glorified roadtrip. Don't post stories and blog posts about how great life is with this <poverty strategy> that you just discovered and "converted" to in the name of if-all-goes-wrong-I-can-just-go-back-to-my-normal-life-of-comfort-and-security-and-safety-ism. And don't post photos and/or stories about poor people in these poor places always being happy, having a smile on their face. Don't take photos of people who are not in a position to fully understand what you're doing/what you'll be doing with these (getting those IG likes and followers #livefree #livehappy #collectmemoriesnotstuff) and even less in a position to refuse or physically stop you from taking that poverty exploitation portrait. Just don't. You are not a photojournalist working to end a terrible situation you're witnessing. If you're tempted to take these pictures and post them, remind yourself you're going back to a nice cushy life and just Eat, Pray, Loving for a couple of weeks in a cheap place to visit. |

Becky will never ever apologize to that woman. Becky is the victim. I think she needs to apologize to anxiety sufferers too. Once again hell will freeze over before she apologizes because once again she is the victim. sleepingbooty I laughed at your TherapyCouch.  Girls- I got into a program this week for my anxiety. My anxiety is so bad I was suffering health problems. I am borderline diabetic because of my anxiety. I never knew that could happen. Apparently, it happens with those who have had violent sexual assaults because we abuse our bodies. I am so excited to finally get proper help. I will take a therapy couch, lol. This is a program for those who have been victim of violent crimes. I got in a top tier. I know some of you reading are like "Good for her, I can't afford that. Whatever Bitch. " I don't have to pay for it. There are resources for us that don't have a high income. I know we have been talking about anxiety and suicide lately on our threads. I know some of you are just suffering debilitating anxiety and not "Use a Becky excuse to go to a spa fake anxiety". I want you to check programs available to you and not be shy or feel judged for getting help. I don't want you to end up physically sick like I did. I am lucky everything was caught in time. |
