Episode 55: LuLaBitch - "Melissa" - Part 2

*The stories shared in LuLaBitch are our own personal experiences, opinions and allegations of our time in the cult LuLaRoe. Some accounts may be triggering. Please listen at your own discretion. This is meant as a companion series to the Amazon Docuseries, LuLaRich, and is in no way affiliated with the film.*

As we finish up our list of LuLaGrievances, "Melissa" and I finally make it to the NDSS scandal, explaining what happened with the top selling consultants who mocked special needs. Listening to how LuLaRoe spun this disaster into their favor is the word salad you didn't know you needed. We also talk about our own actions in LuLaRoe, admitting to things we had deep buried and forgot about, and shed light on the mindset we were in when we made the decisions we did. My chat with "Melissa" was raw, fun, hilarious and authentic, just like her.
