Hey, I'm Roberta Blevins, and this is live after MLM, a podcast where we worked and the stigma of failure in an industry systemically designed for you to fail.

Join us as we dive into the real lifelife stories of survivors, experts, and advocates as we

debunk the common myths and fallacies of cults, frauds, scams, and multi-level marketing.

Thank you. The

The Hey HunBots and Hun bros. You may have noticed this season on Life After MLM

that we have been taking a health and wellness focus. And today's episode is no

exception. We've already covered a little bit of toxic diet culture this season, but we're going

one step deeper into the weight loss industry and the popularity of injectables. In today's episode,

you will meet Alex, who had bariatric surgery three years ago,

and she's here to talk to us about how MLMs target the weight loss surgery community.

And we are also going to tackle the grift of GLP1s and the toxic influencer culture that surrounds it.

So it's going to be a very interesting episode. I don't want you to

feel triggered. This is not a hate letter to injectables, more of a guide on how to stay safe, what's out

there, and how to find the right doctor if you think this is the right thing for you. But don't worry,

it's not all toxic diet culture and wellness and injectables. There's lots of MLM stuff as well.

After listening to this episode, if you feel compelled to reach out to me with your GLP1 story

or you want to make an episode about any of the things we talked about, there are more GLP1 episodes

coming out in the future. So this will be a topic that we're talking about for a while.

We just want to keep you safe and informed. Enjoy this will be a topic that we're talking about for a while. We just want to

keep you safe and informed. Enjoy this episode. We'll see you next week. Welcome back to another episode of Life After MLM.

Today is a special episode because our guest is a long time listener.
