Life After MLM episodes:

November 24, 2024 Episode 274 : Nandi
We are wrapping up our month of Amway stories by taking a hard look at the accountability factor of Multi Level Marketing and how it harms it's participants in more ways than just financial. Nandi thought she was in a loving relationship, working together toward the future, but realized there were other factors making decisions and pulling the strings. We talk about how Covid affected the business and the performative nature of the Clownshow of MLM regardless of the circumstances.

November 20, 2024 Episode 273 : The AntiMLM Kid Part 2
In Part 2 of my conversation with The AntiMLM Kid, we talk about the fallacy of the nonexistent "Level Playing Field", how MLMs explain Pyramid Scheme payment checks to their reps, get into the Double Speak of Amway, and give some valuable advice for when you find yourself in an awkward conversation about your shoes and income potential in the aisles of your closest Big Box Store.

November 17, 2024 Episode 272 : The AntiMLM Kid Part 1
Ever wonder what it's like to be raised by IBOs? To have every memory and influence rooted in Amway? In Part 1 of my chat with The AntiMLM Kid, we dive into what those early years looked like, how her parents met and how she was groomed into becoming an IBO herself. It wasn't until she met her now husband that she began to open her eyes to the harsh truths of MLM.

November 03, 2024 Episode 269 : J
When J first joined Amway and started to catch feelings for her upline, it wasn't without a his heavy handed influence. Over the following months she fell hard for his love bombing and future faking, and everything seemed absolutely wonderful, until it wasn't. The dirty looks from other woman in the organization, petty gossip, and unnecessary drama was only the beginning.

October 20, 2024 Episode 265 : Trish
Trigger Warning: In this episode we talk to a former Juror on a murder trial about a gruesome case in great detail. Please use discretion when listening.
When Trish showed up for jury selection, she just thought she would be fulfilling her civic duty and would be dismissed and headed home shortly. Instead, Trish found herself seated in the jury box, selected for a local murder case, where a woman had been found beaten and murdered in her own home. Over the following days, Trish was thrust into the traumatic story, required to listen to every detail, look at every photo and hear the testimony of those involved to a staggering degree. And after hearing her story, it begged to question; Who is taking care of those involuntarily involved with traumatic cases after the case is over?
