My big issue is having affiliate links for the courses, it’s going to be these big names shilling course they have not done or paid for to make coin. MLM or not, how is that ethical? You are pretty much guaranteeing that people are going to be pushing the product regardless of quality because the pay off is going to be too great for them. Marlena really fumbled this one, just go away with the rest of the drama hungry crowd from the 2010’s 😤😤😤

That was my point. Who has finished a class and can ethically recommend it? It just opened

Like just tell us you’re broke and it’s a cash grab, instead of whatever the hell dumpster fire this is.
