An MLM Bossbabe Freak Out Session

[@katemarks7928]

Oh my God. Not this woman trying to tell her own husband the crap he's been through in the military is just a gut issue?!?! That is horrifying. I can't believe she said that.

[@ReturnToSenderz]

Who needs therapy when you can just poop out your mental issues, amirite?? 🤡

[@eloisepharmacist]

Same 😢😢

[@NoxDolore]

Ugh YES! I have a family member that served and I would throw so many hands if someone said that to him/me. So awful. :(

[@derxderdraws]

What's even worse is there is a recent-ish law called the PACT Act that LITERALLY covers Veterans compensation due to exposures to hazardous/toxic materials; the government openly recognizes that disabilities can be caused by toxic exposures now so for her to just say it's bad gut health is awful.

[@alexia3552]

@@derxderdrawspossibly related I came across the topic of "burn pits" that deployed soldiers were exposed to in this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/gnyxl3mjZbZ3jrMsi=BabpSg1-tsOFmlq8 . Apparently every bit of waste including batteries was just burned. Not everyone will be affected the same way, but if you're having problems and you're seeing connections, you need to be believed so that you can get the help that you need

[@jaxolantern93]

I'm sorry ........did she just admit to not believing her military husband's traumatic experiences?!

[@daftoptimist]

I caught that too. Major ick

[@marinaoc7147]

She sure did!

She might have been referring to the burn pits-even the government has recognized how dangerous those are and were.

The medical claims from them is what made it so hard for me to quit. Thank god I realized my mental health needed more than a probiotic. They are bad with guilting others. Probiotics don’t fix trauma ma’am!

[@thehighlandhomestead190]

a GOOD probiotic will help with SOME things. The problem? She isn't selling a good one lol!

[@Beth71410]

@@thehighlandhomestead190 facts! I still take probiotics with Prestiq, buspirone and my adhd meds. Therapy and meds is what helped keep me alive after being on their supplements for years bc they claimed all of those other prescription meds are sooo bad for you.

[@alexia3552]

Also I really am willing to bet that far fewer people in the world are drastically low in gut biota as they would have us believe. Have you eaten a yogurt in your lifetime + eat any carbs ever? You're probably good lol. Also, speak to an actual doctor. If there is a connection between a symptom and a cause, use differential diagnosis to find that connection. A treatment should produce measurable results, not hopes.

[@anij80]

@@hellygeer exactly!! when i go to buy things i dont go "mmm i must sell this too" lol

[@Antilooting]

She definitely lied. I just came out of plexus after 5 yrs. No money back guarantee you can return but there is a restocking fee AND you have to ship it back and you don’t get original shipping costs back. She makes approx $15 per month for every recruit under her. And level 2. For Level 3s around $12 and level 4s $10. She does have to buy product every month to collect this monthly check. Currently costs approx $150 for the minimum product and shipping, tax to earn her paycheck. She has been in forever, but today it is completely saturated and so barely any people are hitting diamond (her rank) today. Except for the reality tv people who joined and their family members. Also, we had a bunch of girls who got a 1099 and couldn’t afford the taxes. Every gift and trip they send you on is included in that 1099.

[@kbird6208]

Glad you are out!

Thank you for that information abd congrats on getting out!

[@ginnyhillyer]

“It’s my favorite question! I love when people ask this question!” when people ask if it’s a pyramid scheme. No they don’t. They don’t love when people ask it.

[@jaymel4691]

I hate how these MLMers always repeatedly talk about how they "fell in love" with their products. It's so creepy and weird.

[@hellygeer]

And they all say it. Questionable.

[@SkwithOv]

so she said she "worked for a financial advisor as a branch office administrator" (3:12) from google: "Office administration is a set of day-to-day activities that are related to the maintenance of an office building, financial planning, record keeping and billing, personal development, physical distribution and logistics, within an organization." so she worked in an office WITH financial advisors but she herself never was one, she just wants to give herself credibility and pretend she knows anything about finances and advising others in their financial choices seems about right :/

[@savannahthomson1174]

Any true and honest "corporate" financial advisor knows better than to join an MLM scheme. She confirmed 100% lack of credibility with me once she said she quit her "corporate job" in financial advising.

[@lindseydykstra3055]

Came to the comment section for this 👏🏽

[@alexia3552]

Slick way to say words that are technically true but mislead your audience.

[@hattrickk15]

Office Administrator is just the modern term for a secretary. And I'm not trashing on office administration or secretarial work. It is vital and highly skilled but it is NOT financial advising. And working in a financial office does not automatically mean you know anything about financial advising

[@ifynwamma]

Sooo she’s the CEO of herself? Girl be spitting “facts” with her whole chest. I think she actually believes everything she says 🙄

[@Carol_Pearson]

For several years, my mom bought Juice Plus vitamins from a friend. Thankfully, she was never recruited, but she mentioned what she was taking and how much it cost to my younger brother. And he, while not an anti-MLM content watcher, pointed out that she could get something similar for a much lower price at Costco. She ended up telling her friend she wasn't going to order from her anymore, and I think that friendship may have ended, but I was so glad my brother got her to stop supporting an MLM company.

[@RescueNinjaKris10]

Does she realize that at any time, the company can shut down but keep all her customers to market to while leaving her completely out of the equation. So it’s technically not her business. Her customers aren’t even hers. It all belongs to the company.

[@kbird6208]

But she's the CEO of herself!

Gaslighting, manipulation and guilting people is definitely not a community I’d want to be a part of. Geez thank you sweet baby Jesus I got out! I questioned everything and they always came back at me with the mindset bs. Every year their top ambassadors make less and less. Saturation much?!

[@letsalltakeawalk6906]

something that bothers me a lot is the idea that if you do what rich people do you will become rich. That's not how they became rich. A billionaire can have multiple streams of income or buy a lot of real estate because they are rich, they didn't get rich by having multiple streams of income and buying real estate. Even though it made them richer, they could do that because they had the money. Swimmers may have long legs and broad shoulders, but swimming won't make your legs longer or your shoulders broader.

[@TaraTheFox]

41:03 ahh the duality of MLM recruiting pitches... "come join, it's so easy, make money on your phone while you stay home with your kids, look at how successful I am!" and then once you're in it's "what do you mean free money? come on you gotta grind! (and if you don't succeed, you just didn't work hard enough)" can't roll my eyes hard enough

[@Lumi34]

She believes in the product not because it worked but because she was a lonely young woman, with a young child and a deployed husband. They made her feel like she wasnt alone. Which in turn made her feel more energized and happy. She concluded it was the product and another boss babe was born. Its sad really.

Why do we need to know that her husband is in the military?

[@callieb7903]

Because she’s trying to be relatable & bring more women on. Military spouses are a huge market for MLMs. You’re always moving & it can be very hard to keep a job. They stay home with kids frequently, & have access to the internet. Military wives are a HUGE target to these people (and so many end up signing up). MLMs in the military community is a real thing

[@Nylak-Otter]

She's acting like she's currently under attack, and is already defending herself against an accusation that hasn't come yet. And her entire spiel is so rehearsed. I wonder how many times she's had to repeat this in response to folks that question her choices. She can't be happy feeling like this all the time. 😕 I'd feel worse for her if she wasn't openly trying to drag others down with her. Oh, and to answer your question, yeah, I'm good. I'm 35 and I retired last year, because I actually did develop and run my own business, and it wasn't a raging dumpster fire that I felt the need to compulsively defend. I guess if I ever earn too much money from my passive income I can join an MLM to get rid of some of it!
