Summary

Dana had no idea the day my face came across her FYP, that in 2 years time her life would be totally different. It started off innocently enough, as an email asking questions, followed by light conversation back and forth, until the last email I received that started with "I just wanted to reach out and say - I QUIT!". But Dana's journey out of MLM was littered with the adjacent scams that occupy the spaces between; Coaching, Courses, Affiliate Marketing, and Facebook Raffle pages that look more like illegal gambling rackets than actual business support.

0:00.0	Hey, I'm Robert Blovins, and this is Life After Emile, a podcast where we worked and the stigma
0:16.4	of failure in an industry systemically designed for you to fail.
0:20.4	Join us as we dive into the real life stories of survivors, experts, and advocates,
0:25.3	as we debug the common myths and fallacies of cults, frauds, scams, and multi-level marketing. Oh, So, Oh, the Hey, Hunbutts and Hunbuds and Hunbrows. You know how much I love a full circle moment over here on life after MLM and today's episode is just that served up on a
1:47.0	shiny silver platter. It is so delicious and I am so excited for you to meet Dana.
1:52.2	Aside from Dana's origin story, I really love

2:00.4	Because we see them all the time,
2:01.8	you guys are asking me in the comments I'm getting
2:04.0	emails and messages from you saying this seems sort of MLM me isn't an MLM and it's not

2:29.7	Also because we do talk about Facebook scamming groups, I am really, really, really super
2:35.5	interested in talking to anybody who was either really deep in like a Facebook scamming group
2:41.8	or was an admin or ran one. I'm just curious if you need to be anonymous I get it but I have a lot more questions after this episode and I would love if you reached out and we could make a
2:55.2	companion episode to this specifically about Facebook raffles and gambling and
3:00.8	things like that. Also I want to say welcome to our newest Patreon member Trina.
3:06.5	And there's a new post up on Patreon that was inspired by this episode
3:10.7	where we're talking about courses and sort of some bonus content that I'm thinking about adding to
3:16.4	Patreon so if you're a member make sure you check that out and leave me your thoughts on that
3:21.3	post.
