How I Survived An MLM Cult When All I Wanted Was An Organic Green Shake
The MLM world preys on women, especially health coaches who want to help people.
I have been quite gullible in my younger years (4–5years ago). So pretty recent, really. I was boozing, looking for a way out of my life, trying unsuccessfully to build a business online to fund my dreams of world travel.
I had taken a course to be a holistic health coach in 2013 before it was “cool,” yet I had zero business sense. I basically used my knowledge to help my patients. Now health coaches are actually used by insurance companies and doctors’ offices. Which, to me, is impressive.
However, 5 years ago and even now, if you say you are a health coach and you are not affiliated with an MLM, I am sure you have them beating down your inbox.
I actually had no idea what an MLM was until I was suckered into joining not 1, not 2 but 4. All at different times. I told ya’ll I was gullible.
First, let me explain what an MLM is. ( since most MLM’ers say it is not a pyramid scheme, yet that is precisely what it is) I also refer to it as a cult.
