So cringe when she was boasting about New Look, who shops there? £16.99 for a t-shirt that you could get for £2 on the market. And the faux 'shock' over her million turnover which she posted a million stories on. Why does she touch her face and head all the time when talking? So off putting. Her videos after the New Look meeting were so cringe as well, the way she was looking around as if expecting someone to be like OMG SCOUSE BIRD?! She really thinks she is a celebrity.
Also, I want to make a point about her ridiculously pseudo-psychologist posts. I actually am a psychologist, I don't practice at the moment as the workload is insane for the salary but that's by the by. I'm still qualified whereas Steph, by her own admission, has had 'sh*t jobs' up until her ~influencer~ role. I'm sick of these dumb bimbos online thinking they're psychiatrists because they met one horrible man and have now diagnosed him as a psycho/sociopath or narcissist. They have no idea what that actually means and it's extremely ableist throwing around labels and diagnosing people when you have ZERO psychological background and no real knowledge about the disorders you're speaking about. Narcissistic Personality Disorder is extremely misunderstood. As it's worst, yes, it can be dangerous. I would never downplay the seriousness of malignant narcissism because it can lead to someone gaslighting another person, abusing them in some way, etc. But - BUT - sometimes, people are just cruel. You cannot diagnose someone with NPD/narcissism from a few months of knowing them. Narcissistic Personality Disorder is a complex defence mechanism that occurs because of trauma and a desperate need to be safe. That doesn't excuse people who have NPD acting in ways to scare or harm others, of course not. But I'm sick of people, usually women, like Steph, taking to Instagram all tarted up and talking as if they are a goddamn expert and qualified to be speaking about these topics and disorders. Of course I think speaking about genuine dangerous people/situations is important to bring awareness and to help potential victims of abuse, but it's insulting when she acts as if she is some kind of pseudo psychotherapist. You don't know the first thing, Steph, otherwise you wouldn't denigrate or use ableist terms and language in these pathetic psychological "vlogs" which are just the vlogs of someone who should stick to 'jokes' rather than attempt critical psychological analysis.
