Trainers' Training 2019

Feb. 13, 2019

"Now repeat after me, 'I am an incredibly powerful salesperson, climbing higher and higher up the ladder of success.'"--Mr. Busta.

Even though the 10-day 2019 Psychology of Vision Trainers' Training has already taken place and the annual event ended over two weeks ago as of today (Feb. 13, 2019), the POV webpages remain pretty much not updated. But we think we can make some accurate notes based on other sources.

This is a meeting that is required of all POV trainers. In addition to paying a very pricey yearly "license fee" of thousands of dollars the trainers are expected to foot their own bill for travel and lodging. The Spezzanos easily grossed about 100 grand at this 2019 soirée by my estimation. Only the affluent need apply to be a POV trainer. Paycheck-to-paycheck wage slaves will find POV to be an expensive and beyond-their-reach cult to join. In Psychology of Vision in order to pray you have to pay-- or should I say in order to prey you have to pay so you can shift from POV victim to fellow culprit as you climb the corporate ladder and recruit more gullible and/or vulnerable people.

This is basically a New Age style board meeting for the serious POV franchise holders who reside near the top of the POV steep pyramid scheme organizational chart. The trainers are distributors and merchandisers who help enable the for-profit corporation known as Spezzano and Associates Ltd.

According to the Trainers Manual, they are expected to provide free labor and support whenever the Spezzanos show up in their territory.

It seems they lost two veteran trainers (Krystal Hsu and Ian Lai both from Taiwan) and gained three, giving their numbers a net gain of one bringing the total number of POV trainers to 19. Just a few years ago they had more than double that number. Around 15 years ago they had around 80 trainers.

As usual, the POV trainers spent their evenings soaked in booze. Conspicuous and copious consumption of beer, wine, and spirits has been a huge part of POV culture across the globe. If your healing program includes any issues with alcohol, which it does for a large percentage of those with family problems, then Psychology of Vision will not be a safe place for you.

We don't know if the following factoid is an indicator of financial distress or something else, but we note this annual event was held at the Spezzano compound itself rather than the long-time usual hoity hotel on another island. That is interesting.

Only this group refers to Babs Stevens as "a well respected Visionary Leader", in truth she is hated by her community as she is a well known opportunist which has padded her way to success with community funding for bullshit "healing" pseudos like POV. She will be remembered more for ripping off her first nations people and justifying it .
Who self appoints themselves from band manager to CEO? She does ,plus forcing community plan to accept her POV training as legit which is far from any certifiable method of care.
Delusional people follow delusional leaders that have their formula
strategized for their own self gain.

Well said and so true of Babs and POV!

At least three of these trainers have returned to Hawaii in just a few months in order to attend an "Apprenticeship" with their Masters. How are they able to afford this? We're talking money, folks.

In America we say that politically we have a two-party system, the Greedy and the Gullible. The same principle applies to Psychology of Vision.

Isn't the very premise of a "selfie" contrary to the alleged POV teachings of wallowing in the Ego? Same for the obvious expensive cosmetic procedures employed by several in these photos. These people do not practice what they preach.

There are a few folks in there that look fairly snockered. Not a safe space to be in if alcohol is an issue in your family, which I am guessing it is for a good percentage of the trainers for either themselves or close relatives. POV is such a scam run by con artists who are more adept at removing money from your bank account than they in removing any strife in your life.
