You're looking at it the wrong way. The women she was coaching were looking for help bettering their lives and thought that asking someone who has already become successful would be the best route.

It was only by 2018 that the problematic stuff started to appear in her Chanel’s, when she started to claim that her sessions could heal all kind of diseases, telling sick people to stop their medication and just do spiritual treatment with her and bash psychologists and doctors as stupid mafia that knows nothing and only wants your money. At this time on the background she was already exploiting people she had hired to work for her but no one came forward since they felt ashamed , terrified of her revenge and powerless. But the s3x exploration of her workers started years later, hyped by the impunity she got for so long and because she was fully spiraling into her insanity.

It's not an easy problem, social media. But in her case, as social media has been proven in court to be her modus operandi, I hope that the court orders for her to be banned from online will result in her being banned from social media platforms under her own name. Small consolation but any bit of difficulty for her to access any more potential victims is a plus.

Even the day of worship (including the Sabbath, which the religious world observes) is hated by God; and even more God hates and rejects social relations and worldly relations between man and man. God did not even order the spring Festival and Christmas day that everyone knows, especially the toys and decorations such as pairs, fireworks, lanterns, Holy Communion, Christmas gifts and parties --Christmas party----aren't they idols in people's mindsthis? The breaking of bread on the Sabbath, Wine, and Fine Linen are even more idolatrous. All the various traditional Festival days known in China, such as "Dragon Heads--raising Day," the "Dragon Boat Festival," "Mid--Autumn Festival," the "Laba Festival," and New Year's day, and Holidays in the religious world such as Easter, day ofBaptism, and Christmas day, all of these arbitrary Feasts have been organized and passed down from ancient times to the present day by many people. The more the Satans congregate in a location, and the more obsolete and backward that place is, the worse the feudal customs become. Many of the Festivals in the religious world seem to show great originality and seem to create a bridge to God's work, but they are not--they are seen as Satan's bonds that bind people so that they cannot recognize the God--all that iscunning trick of Satan. Actually the work that God is doing today is mainly to deal with and eradicate the superstitious nature of people and completely change their mental outlook.) Almighty God said What GOD hates most of all superstitious practices of people, but many people still cannot let go of them, thinking that this superstitious practice is ordained by God, and even now have not completely let go of those. THINGS LIKE YOUTHS ARRANGE for WEDDING FESTIVALS and DOWRIES for BRIDES; MONEY GIFTS, FEASTS, and similar methods of CELEBRATION of BAD OCCASIONS; ancient INHERITED FORMULAS; ALL the NON--SIGNIFICANT SUPERSTITIONSwork PERFORMED in the NAME of the DEAD and the SEMONY of BURYING them, GOD HATES all of this MORE. 😪 Even the DAY of WORSHIP (including the Sabbath, which the religious world observes) is HATES by GOD; and even MORE GOD HATES and REJECTS SOCIAL RELATIONSHIPS and WORLDLY RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN MEN and MEN. 😪 GOD DIDN'T ORDER even the SPRING FESTIVAL and CHRISTMAS DAY that everyone knows, especially the toys and decorations like pares--pares, firecrackers, lanterns, Holy Communion, Christmas gifts and party---Christmas party------- AREN'T those IDOLS in PEOPLE'S MIND this? 😪 BREAKING---PIECES of BREAD on the SABBATH DAY, WINE, and FINE LINEN is even MORE truly an IDOL. All the different TRADITIONAL FESTIVALS known in CHINA, such as "Dragon Heads---raising Day," the "Dragon Boat Festival," "Mid--Autumn Festival," the "Laba Festival," and NEW YEAR'S DAY, and RELIGIOUS WORLD HOLIDAYS such as CHRISTMAS OF LIFE, DAY OFBAPTISM, and CHRISTMAS DAY, ALL these arbitrary feasts have been organized and handed down from ancient times to the present day by many people. ☀️ HUMANITY'S RICH IMAGINATION and CREATIVE AWARENESS CAUSED them to be PASSED to the DAY. 😪 The MORE the DEVILS GATHER a LOCATION, and the MORE OLD and BACKWARD that PLACE is, the WORSE the FEUDAL CUSTOMS. These things bind people so tightly, that they cannot move. Many of the FESTIVALS in the RELIGION WORLD seem to SHOW great originality and seem to create a BRIDGE to God's work, but they are NOT in FACT----SEEN BANDS of SATAN that BIND them MAN to NOT KNOW GOD----ALL of thatis a cunning DECEPTION of SATAN. 🛑😪 In fact, when a phase of God's work is over, He destroys the tools and styles of that time, leaving no traces. However, "faithful believers" continue to worship tangible material things; WHILE they SET ASIDE what GOD has in their MINDS, NOT STUDYING it ANYMORE, SEEMING to be FULL of LOVE to GOD BUT the REALITY is HE is LONG-TERM when PUSHED OUT of the HOUSE and PLACED SATAN on the TABLE to WORSHIP. 😪 🛑 The IMAGES of JESUS, the CROSS, MARY, the BAPTISM of JESUS ​​and the LAST SUPPER----ALL of these are respected by the PEOPLE as the LORD of HEAVEN, while OVER--OVER AND AGAIN SHOUTING "LORD, FATHER in heaven." Isn't ALL of this a joke? 🛑 Until now, GOD HATES many similar sayings and practices inherited by mankind, THOSE SERIOUSLY BLOCK THE WAY TO GOD and, moreover, become a great hindrance to mankind's entrance. in addition to the EXTENT of SATAN'S CORRUPTION of HUMANITY, PEOPLE'S WILLS are COMPLETELY FILLED with THINGS LIKE Witness Lee's LAW, Lawrence's experiences, Watchman Née's surveys and Paul's work. There is really no way for God to work with people because within them there is too much selfishness, laws, rules, rules and systems, and the like, these things, in addition to the last of the feudal people which superstitions, have captured and devoured thehumanity. What people think is an exciting movie that tells a "fairy tale" that is colorful, with incredible creatures riding on clouds, so creative that people are amazed, leaving them dumb and unable to speak. ACTUALLY, the WORK that GOD is DOING NOW is MAINLY to ATTACK and DELETE the SAD CHARACTERISTICS of PEOPLE and to COMPLETELY CHANGE their MENTAL OUTLINES. 🙏 God's work has not lasted until now because of the heritage passed down by mankind through the generations; it is a work He personally initiates and completes, not necessarily succeeding the legacy of a particular great spiritual person, or inheriting anywork of a representative nature done by God in some other age People don't need to worry about any of these things. God now has a different style of speech and action, so why do people confuse themselves? If people walk today's path contained in the Current while continuing the legacy of their "ancestors," they will never reach their destination. GOD FEELS A STRONG DISGUST for this particular class of MAN'S BEHAVIOR, just as He HATES the YEARS, MONTHS and DAYS of MAN'S WORLD. 🙏 From "The WORD Appears in the Flesh". holy book Fulfilled in "In the beginning He was the Word, the Word was with God, and the Word was God" (John 1:1). ... and (Ezekiel 2:9-10). ... "His garment was stained with blood. He was called the "Word of God" (Rev. 19:13). 📩 All who have "ears to listen" are led to what the Spirit of God is saying in His lowered and built kingdom/Church engraved with His new name, His totality, the ownership of this disposition, "THE CHURCH OF ALMIGHTY GOD "💐 fulfillment from what was said He to Peter 2,000 years ago recorded in (Matthew 16:18-19). His Coming is the fulfillment of all that was prophesied in the great book of Revelation, so the last "Salvation" He brought the whole truth, the way for eternal life. So the "victorious" ones who will receive them are the wise "virgins" because as recorded in the prophecy of His return no one knows it except the one who will receive it! So "come" and come to His kingdom/church standing in the holy place in the air/KZbin! This is also a fulfillment from the book of (Isaiah 2:2/9:6) which He first fulfilled in His first incarnation. 📥 "They say with a loud voice, "Salvation comes from the Lamb, and from our God who sits on the Throne!" (Rev. 7:10). ... and (Isaiah 2: 2 / 9:6) "On the Last Day, the mountain on which Jehovah's temple stands will stand out above all the mountains. All nations will flock there. " .

It blows my mind that so many people fall for this flannel. On one hand I have so much sympathy for these girls who were trafficked & abused by this woman's schemes, but it's genuinely like these people have no self-preservation or survival instincts.

[@isabelledaisy5477]

Unfortunately, when people are vulnerable, they are more easy to take advantage of. Cults and 'charismatic', manipulative people have always been around to prey on vulnerable people. There are lots of ways people get taken advantage of, but it is absolutely NEVER their fault. It is a process of grooming and manipulation, no victim walks into that kind of situation knowing what they are getting into. Sometimes it is hard to have 'critical thinking' when you are already in a place of weakness. And believe me, when you make the wrong choices because you are afraid of what will happen otherwise, or feel trapped....you do have to live with regret and shame that you didn't get out sooner, or do things differently, or see what was happening to you.

She had suffered trauma as a child, and she never wanted to feel powerless-ever. Her beauty and her body made her feel invincible. So she never healed her heart. But humility and grief is the healthy medicine. I think the psychedelics messed with her psychology. And she obviously is in complete denial of any responsibility- a full on narcissistic where I think she morphed into another personality disorder. I’m a certified hypnotherapist and medicine woman, and spend my life helping others be empowered. Clearly, she manipulated men and women. When you love and care about others, there’s a vulnerability that is required. She obviously avoids it. Prayers to everyone.

Thank goodness these women were fortunate enough to have families who *did* love them and were able to shine such a light on their disappearances. For so many, they either don't have that at all, or the families just aren't able to get the needed attention pointed onto the search for their missing family members.

@BBC News I am so glad to see such good quality documentaries on so many issues across the globe. We seriously need to ban social media. 10 over years ago when social influencers start to trumpet their own sphere of influence, I knew this would be going down a slippery slope. It takes time for it to show its negative influence.

[@userofyoutube123]

“I didnt like her”. This means she felt the lady knows her and can sense she is lying or how she is manipulating.

[@samaskye]

I chuckled at that part. She’s so deluded and someone exposed her for her lies. 😂

[@yourstrulysvetocha]

She doesn't like facing the facts and evidence of what she has done to paint herself as a 'bad person'... doesn't want her image 'tainted'.. extremely narcissistic

[@veritas785]

Surprisingly she didn't say that about the man interviewer who was also very straightforward - even said- is that a threat?. Wondering if she was more interested in exploiting or against other women. Not sure but seems like so.

[@veritas785]

Because she denies the allegations brought by so many witnesses, it seems like she's either deliberate or deluded in doing what she did for so long. Beware of witchcraft and deep meditation stuff! Please don't experiment with this kind of spiritual stuff. These can take over your life. Trust God not some spiritual gurus.

[@elva323]

no, the interviewer lady just had a real shitty and aggressive vibe.

[@catsinq5726]

A) I hope all her animals were ok. Her laughing because the cat was scared was all I needed to see to know she was a bad person through and through. B) Why wasn't her husband being charged as well? I hope so - he sure knew what was happening and whose money he was living off of.

YOU DO NOT TRAIN CHILDREN - PARENTS NEED TO EDUCATE AND BRING AWARENESS - BUT PARENTS ARE THE PROBLEM THESE DAYS AS THEY ARE IN DIRE NEED OF ATTENTION!

[@animula6908]

Being self-centered doesn’t create happiness. Teach children to be kind to others and make life about contributed in meaningful ways. Not trying to be like people whose self-centered ness has made them rich. Those are the worst people to want to be like. I don’t do social media for years now. So it’s easy to forget the hogwash and trash that’s on there, or that anyone else is still caught up in that as their only image of life. It makes me sad. But you can’t delete the apps for people. You just have to stand by and let them suffer until they decide they want better for themselves. ❤

[@betterworld2958]

Yes and I think this is also an oversimplification. The reason why people seek out idols may be lack ofcommunity. Internet and social media is not helping with this unfortunately. This is a systemic issue and I hope we eventually as a society get back to a sense of commmunity.

Can't say I'm exactly mad at Sorokin tho. This woman actually, physically harmed people.

[@felix-xd4mx]

sorokin scammed a bank or something right? i don't think she actually harmed anyone. the girl who was forced to pay for morroco hotel didn't have to pay in the end because she called the credit card company and they cancelled the transaction, everything was refunded. the guy who approved of her loans even got a promotion. no trafficking, nobody forced to strip, enslaved, or pr0stitvted. literally nobody was hurt. you can't compare them together.

Once you have been caught in a narcissist web you now have the blueprint and others are easy to recognize. Always listen to your intuition. Your first gut instinct is always right. When you start making excuses for people it’s guaranteed you’re on the wrong path. Dump, run and never look back. Do not hear what they have to say. They spend their lives excelling at this game. You stay you loose. 🙏🏻

They won't go away until enough people are sick of social media and it begins dying. That will happen but I doubt it will be within the next 10 or 15 years. When enough people wake up to how toxic it is, and how few people will ever have make any sustainable amount of money to have a career from it, it will go extinct.
