We started a YouTube Show! It's called Life After MLM : The Show (obviously) and we stream LIVE every Friday at 9am pst! Make sure to subscribe! https://www.youtube.com/c/RobertaBlevinsLAMLM

Lauren and I connected on Instagram, where she is doing some difficult work dismantling toxic diet culture and anti fat bias. As a former member of Le-Vel, Lauren had an important MLM story to share filled with toxic positivity and a nasty upline. As an educator, Dr. Merklin takes us on a journey to help end the stigma of fatphobia, educate us on the startlingly familiar statistics of the diet industry, and share some pretty cool history about the body positivity movement.
