I received NARP as a gift a few days after learning about narcissism at a very dark point in my life.
I felt it miraculously helped me. I later bought the TFOW and ESC courses as well.

Though I had learnt hypnosis, NLP, Emotion Code, Tapping etc this was the very first time ever that I had made my inner healing a top priority and devoted myself 100% with unconditional love to healing my trauma instead of suppressing it all and using tools to 'improve myself' and 'become more productive' etc.
I had hit rock bottom and threw everything I had at the task of healing. This include prayer, multiple books that I had bought, tapping, NLP, journalling, beating pillows, and most important prayer. I spent every waking moment applying the tools I had, healing clearing and adding more tools as I learnt about them.
My life transformed, and miraculously I bounced back and am thriving, thank you God.

IN HINDSIGHT
I cannot attribute this exclusively to NARP. Neither can I discount the efficacy of this program: it definitely helped me powerfully, especially at first. I know I threw everything I had at the task of healing and as I prayed God gifted me solutions, insights and tool after tool. One experienced healer who gave me regular sessions said (when I asked her what tools had worked for her clients over decades in the healing field): 'I cannot recommend any particular tool. If the person is ready and determined to heal, anything will work, and if they aren't, nothing will." This coach wasn't very particular about which tool I used. She helped me work on my inner being for a long period, which was powerful for me.

AVID MTE FAN
I don't do things by halves. I was a very enthusiastic promoter for NARP and MTE. I even applied to work for them creating content part time (I was instead offered a role to direct their marketing, which I was grateful for but turned down as I was exhausted and did not want that much responsibility. If I took a job I had to give it my all, and I just was too depleted at that time. My focus was healing myself). Despite that I loyally promoted her 'thriver mission' as I wanted to help others.

I made it a point to contribute any insights I had on the forum. I also had a routine of logging in every so often to find a new member who had similar issues, so I could encourage someone as a good deed. I felt strong loyalty and a need to pay it forward.

Anyway, I unsubscribed in 2019 from all MTE material. After being disillusioned on multiple fronts.

ISSUE
In addition to family narcs I realized I had other toxic people bothering me. I had put up a hobby website on natural probiotics and was active in marketing and entrepreneurship Facebook groups as I sought to upskill and find a career path forward for myself.

In Pakistan a woman raising children alone is not safe in any aspect of her life. Not reputation, not money, not home, nothing. People feel they can loot and deceive with impunity (to be fair, they do that to everyone. Ethics and morality are not a glaring hallmark of that culture.)

People were hacking stalking spying on harassing me in every imaginable way.
'Religous' women's groups (had joined religious groups thinking to get a positive social circle (haha)), 'religious' entrepreneurs' (I briefly had joined their FB groups) Pakistani entrepeneurs (as I progressed with my probiotics project), neighbours (small world, they monitored my progress). Collectively I refer to them as the RPDCs. (rat pig dog cockroaches). This describes their hypocritical, greedy, immoral, sneaking, stealing, spying toxicity. These strange made people had latched onto me like leeches as a vulnerable target to plunder.

These people were convinced they had to steal my probiotic business as I seemed to be doing a good job. Though I had no contact with any of them, it took me a while to realize how much I was hacked and monitored. (It is the ultimate 'peep at your neighbours' from behind the curtains' society, but with tech. Everyone entrenched in everyone else's business. Eww). They were looking for ways to exploit my activities.

When I joined NARP (and applied to work for them) these people decided that this must be another opportunity they had to get before I did, or some other crazy exploitative crab bucket scarcity jealous hater thinking that is very prevalent in Pakistan. Even my efforts to escape the pits of narc abuse were not exempt, these mad crazy people were monitoring my phone, home, movements to steal anything I achieved. I could write a book!

Anyway, to cut a long story short I became aware I was constantly watched and monitored. (A zillion pieces of evidence for this). They wanted to steal my 'probiotic millions' or whatever. Even when I was desparately seeking to heal my life and support my children by joining NARP and other resources online, these rats were intruding everywhere. I bought a boxing bag and was learning to box in my home. How did these spying rats know? Schadenfreude is a major part of the Paki psyche too, and they maliciously enjoyed watching a woman suffer alone while sabotaging and stealing my efforts to build a life. They never expected me to rise, move away and thrive, eluding their exploitation.

2019 onwards I continued to clean up my devices / accounts / activities of these hackers, it was a process. I also let go of my probiotic project I had started with God. I felt these greedy hackers could take it and do the hard work to build it up, and then hack and steal from each other to their heart's content, but I wanted nothing to do with them and their intrusion, exploitation, craziness etc, even if it meant jettisoning a cherished project.

These people seemed determined to monitor and 'get in first' with any project I might start. Highly crazy stuff seriously. Cannot count the number of unsolicited contacts from fake profiles, email addresses, numbers and what not I have had, despite changing addresses / numbers / accounts to be rid of these stalkers.

WHY AM I MENTIONING ALL THIS HERE?

2019 I realized that these ratpreneurs had joined NARP team in some capacity.
As MTE implemented Teachable, the Youtube videos had artificially inflated views (from hundreds of organic views with a video upload, to suddenly each video had 5k views on the first day!), excessive Photoshop, 'glitzy' marketing and multiple other indicators showed me these people were on the NARP team. I also saw a surge in Pakistanis posting on the forum (from zero). By a very strange coincidence, MTE, in her videos, mentioned an interest in "working in nutrition and health" and "boxing classes".

MTE herself emailed me asking to use my Thriver story on her site 'as she was very impressed by my progress'. In response I mentioned a need for privacy and mentioned a sense of the toxic people hacking stalking and following me to NARP. Partly to retain my privacy online and also to alert her.

I actually thought her response would be concern over the kind of people who had inflitrated her team and what that would mean for MTE and the members.

To my surprise my concerns were dismissed and I picked up increasing toxic energy from her (I no longer dismiss these powerful intuitions I have always had). I picked up some toxic denigrating innuendos. Apparently I was toxic for expressing my concerns. I would never have expected this unhealthy arrogant response from a mature person of integrity.

I did not want a fight this weird, I unsubscribed and did not look back, putting up daily energy boundaries to fend off toxic energy. It is not my business whom they choose to employ or work with, they have every right to do so. But from what I had experienced, I wouldn't touch these people with a ten foot pole.

I had spoken my truth, given MTE the opportunity to evaluate the situation. The response was dismissive and hostile. I accepted that and moved on, as I had a life to rebuild.

I would never click on any MTE links. I know these 'entrepreneurs' use malvertizing and malware links to infiltrate and monitor people as a modus operandi, 'to see what they could steal'. This is how the 'religious entrepreneurs' first got a foothold in my devices.

I do not know how many people they may have infected with their cyber intrusions.

Narcs are narcs. Rats are rats. You just walk away. What I could not fathom is how MTE had turned on me, who had caused her no harm, and had voluntarily devoted my time and effort as an enthusiastic supporter, the intention being to help others who had been through what I had. Her attitude did not seem healthy, even to me, a big fan.

I was shocked at how MTE dismissed the concerns of an avid supporter who was healing from narcissistic abuse and preferred the narrative of new team members who had come to NARP after me. It is, of course their right to decide. I am glad I walked away. There were intense attempts by ratpreneur vultures to infiltrate my life / online for whatever reason, which I continually blocked and ignored. I picked up intense vitriolic anger from MTE herself, which I had to shield myself from.

In writing this review I looked up a few MTE videos. I see that a prevailing theme in recent times has been 'narcissistic business partners' who 'steal passwords and other sensitive information' or 'are not in it for the long haul'. There has been a lot of that in her videos from 2020 it seems. I wonder what that is about.

Surely a person selling products to heal people from narc abuse would not be duped by narcissists! Or perhaps their vibe resonated with her. Anyway, it all had a very unpleasant inauthentic pushy feel. Toxic energy I received was like narc rage.

Marie Forleo interviews Elizabeth Gilbert, and at one point Elizabeth says she stays far away from people who 'claim to have all the answers', as honest people will acknowledge their imperfections. I remember thinking of MTE when I watched that, and then dismissed the thought. Perhaps, though.

I did pick up an arrogant denigrating vibe which shocked me at first as I had been nothing but an avid supporter expecting nothing but wanting to 'spread the Thriver mission'. (Double standards: If you go no contact with them, it is narcissistic. If they go no contact with you, it is self partnering). I was also shocked by the amount of vitriolic toxic energy I felt directed at me for a time. Who knows what narrative they were playing by.

I am sharing this as part of 'telling my story' and to bring my previous review up to date.

I have a lot of tools I have used to heal. Most important has been a connection with God.
NARP was there too, and I have expressed my gratitude and paid it forward.

But after this weird experience I would not trust MTE much. I also wonder now, if participating in her healings allows her to 'graft energy' from people.

Very grateful for whatever benefits I received though.

(NOTE. To post this I looked up my invoices. The ESC invoice and emails around this purchase had disappeared; for whatever reason the hackers had deleted them. I had corresponded with MTE multiple times regarding that purchase, but nothing in my inbox or sent mail. However, I had the Meltonia transactions on my bank statement as proof of purchase. Who knows what skewed story these crazy ratpreneurs were selling that required them meddling with my inbox like that.)

In conclusion, I found it useful to help me dig out of a hole. I was not impressed by MTE integrity, which is saddening. On the whole I have found a lot of solutions and am grateful for the journey, and for being rid of the RPDCs.

EDIT:
I would like to upgrade my review.
I was very hurt at the curt dismissal of my situation by the people I considered the only genuine people of integrity I could respect and trust at a very difficult juncture in my life.
In hindsight, I can understand that Melanie could not have known the people infiltrating her business were toxic. It is not easy to understand or lend credence to tales of mob stalking and harassment as they are so hard to prove or even describe in concrete terms. I can see from her perspective receiving many emails from distressed people, it would have been difficult to form an accurate assessment.
I am updating my review as I do not feel I should penalize or lash out at Melanie and her team for the actions of the toxic individuals infesting and maliciously sabotaging every space they could (my site was blacklisted on FB, I was locked out of Facebook etc).
I firmly trust in God; He will deal with these toxic individuals in perfect divine timing.

However, in all fairness, I want to express deep gratitude to Melanie and team for NARP, ESC, FOO. I acknowledge that these offerings were instrumental in my healing, growth and were my go to meditations to reach within and heal myself, when I was abandoned by all and had myself and God alone, facing difficulties. NARP was my lifeline, and I express my deep gratitude.
I also learnt a great deal from Melanie's videos and articles, which I studied and took to the healings. I recently watched a video of Melanie's on YouTube, and was very happy to see her thriving and lovingly serving others. I feel she has upleveled a lot (as she said, she consistently does so). Anyway, I needed to express gratitude and goodwill to those who pretty much saved my life (Thank you GOD).

Narcissistic (self absorbed, manipulative) people can wreak havoc on the people who fall for the wonderful image they project. If you are or have been in a relationship with someone who had multiple faces and drained you, have problems with relationships, depression, finances or health, don't understand why you seem to be unable to escape them (physically or in your head) then Melanie's tools and insights will help you. The most important thing to remember is that you are worth the healing, the self partnering and the journey within. Don't dismiss your symptoms, as I did, till you crash. Read up about it.

ME: I'm a single Mom to two lovely girls; despite having an outstanding IQ according to my teachers and school results, working hard and being told I am beautiful, I have faced tremendous problems in my personal life. Divorce, depression and bullying by my ex husband.
JOURNEY On a self-development journey, I've journalled, signed up for Tony Robbins, Robin Sharma programs, learnt and practiced NLP, Hypnosis, EFT, Kinesiology, lifted weights, done yoga, followed a healthy diet, used aromatherapy, and of course prayer. Everything is profoundly useful to me, and I am stronger and wiser. I've pushed myself to achieve: gain credentials, build my site, find clients, work round the clock, to 'succeed'. Yet inside, I felt a powerless wreck.

FINDING NARP I found Melanie's blog while searching for 'how to protect from oppressive parents' which led me to finding out about narcissistic mothers, which fit my mother to a T! I'll spare you the details, but I was reading about how to protect from black magic, as I could not understand the effect she had on my life, and I was so drained.
I found the article during this Google period: http://blog.melanietoniaevans.com/how-to-make-the-narcissist-powerless-to-affect-your-life/ which lit a spark of hope, and reminded me to focus on building my inner being rather than killing myself working round the clock on work projects.

EXPERIENCE WITH MELANIE'S METHODS Anyway, as 2016 was winding down, I put everything on hold. I watched her videos, read her articles, signed up for her webinar, joined the webinar Facebook Group, journalled did the exercises she taught, and it was wonderful. I now understand that my surpressed anger and fear, repressed as I felt bad and guilty and strove to honor my mother, had sabotaged me, and that I had to acknowledge and embrace the truth of what had happened, set those terrors free, and build a true and authentic self rather squashing my 'unpleasant', 'politically incorrect' feelings down. I also realized that because I did not honor or acknowledge this part of my life experience, I married a narc husband, who chose to devalue and bully me as well. I could not understand why at the time.
We want to honor, love and respect our mothers / spouses, and it is very hard to understand that there are unconscious people who DELIBERATELY seek to harm others. Yet narcissists do exist. It is what it is, so best to understand that and deal with it, not hide from it or try to change them.

EFFECTS ON ME As I embraced my inner being during these exercises, I cried as I have not been able to do for years (focused on soldiering on and getting things done.) I feel happier and lighter, and the terror and panic that was always hovering around is far less. The 'it's over, I can't do it anymore, I give up' space gives way to hope, courage and peace.

I'm signed up for Melainie's NARP program. From what I've seen of her content, and from her thoughtful, insightful and loving posts and responses in the Facebook group, I just know she is authentic, has the tools I need and knows what she is talking about. I am choosing to invest in myself, honor myself, and build a new life. NARP is my roadmap to overcoming the abuse. Her program is very affordable, considering all the benefits I've already had!
God bless, and keep believing! You are worth it.
