Slow Living Podcast with Host Stephanie O'Dea

Episode 76 - Emily's Story -- Escaping a MLM

see all podcast notes at stephanieodea.com/podcastnotes

Emily Lynn Paulson is the author of “Hey Hun: Sales, Sisterhood, Supremacy, and the Other Lies Behind Multilevel Marketing“ — and she joined me for a very candid interview on how she got sucked into the online MLM world and then how she got out of it.

This was such a great conversation, and I immensely appreciate Emily’s honesty and candor — she likens the MLM world to being in a cult — and while that term seems rather harsh, she shares a ton of research and testimonials that back up this claim.

The fact is, adulting and motherhood is terribly isolating. While I was a bit incredulous (at first) that a well-educated woman with a great family and upbringing could “fall” for a “scam” —It happens every day. Many, many, many times a day.

Slick marketing preys on vulnerability — it’s happened to me, and I’m certain it’s probably happened to you.

I hope you enjoy this episode — and AS ALWAYS — if you have any questions or comments, shoot me an email or tag me @stephanieodea

Overview

I love helping listeners embark upon their own journey to Slow Down, and live the life they’ve always dreamt about: one filled with peace, purpose, and abundance.

I understand how you’re feeling when you are rushing around trying to do “all the things,” always playing catch up and finding time to get things done.

I know because I’m a mom too.

It’s okay to stop and breathe. My philosophy isn’t about cramming more and more into an already over-packed schedule, instead I offer realistic tips and plans to get things done quickly and efficiently so you can do things you want to do.

Stephanie's Story

I know what it feels like to want to live a calm, peaceful, and harmonious life but you feel like you can’t because there is simply too much to do. I believe that if we are lucky, life is long. You are not behind, and you don’t need to rush around, trying to catch up. My philosophy isn’t about cramming more and more into an already over-packed schedule.

Instead, I want to you to stop. Breathe. It’s all going to be okay.

I want you to live out the life you’ve always dreamt about — the one that gets you excited to get up in the morning and puts a goofy grin on your face.

Because the laundry, chores, soccer practice, meal planning, and litter box scooping? That’s not WHO you are; that’s not your identity. Those are the things you HAVE TO do.

So let’s make a realistic plan to get them over & done with, quickly & efficiently so you can finally be the person you’ve always wanted to be, and do the things you actually WANT TO do.

I am here to support you.
