For every beach body coach coming to "report" this video, why don't you take a few minutes and actually watch the video instead of blindly just following what your upline tells you. Also, take a look at all of the other videos from Hannah. You'll soon realize that. ISSA CULT!
They’re all sheep 🐑. Following their leaders
There is a reason your up line doesn't want you to watch, only report
It’s so frustrating that people report videos or posts for the WRONG reasons!! Some not all don’t care unless you’re bringing them coin
When the coach I signed up under finally got me to sign up she literally said “my husband said I can’t speak with you anymore” I was fuming I was told to leave at that time but I genuinely wanted to help
Glad I listened and help people without an MLM 😔
@@raychul33 that sheep is a really cute emoji
Yes! 💯
Being in an MLM is like being in a never-ending group project. Except now it’s not just your grade at stake, it’s your entire life.
Omg yes! Such a good analogy!
I never thought of it that way, that's perfect! What a nightmare!
@@robiness6019 definitely my worst nightmare lol
Oh god I'm literally in a nightmare group project right now!
I'm 100% convinced a full year is wiped from my life expectancy every time I have to do group work.. And that's yet another reason why I will never join an MLM haha
And I just hate the homework she says you have to do every day for your “guaranteed” success.
"Tell me another company where you can be CEO of your own company..."
I'm sorry. WHAT. 🤨🤨🧐
She's at 6 figures and still hustling... Where is the time freedom?
I admire the way Hannah manages to talk so professionally despite having a cat's butt in her face!
Right?! 😂
I'm not a RUclipsr but I have had much practice doing that on Zoom 😂
A simple fact: Us humans just work better under cat supervision. (And yes, a professional cat supervisor CAN do his job with his butt in your face!)
"Uh oh! Mom's talking about MLMs! I must comfort her!" 🥰
😂😂😂
This reminds me of a Facebook meme I saw:
Upline: “I just got a new Lexus!”
Downline: “Wow that’s awesome! Congrats!”
Upline: “and if you work hard, apply yourself, and never give up - I’ll get to have another one next year!”
😂😂😂 As someone who has fallen prey to several MLMs (I'm neurodivergent, so can be an easy target/gullible) over the years, this is SO accurate! 😂😂😂
I love watching this woman rant about how horrible “normal jobs” are, while Hannah nonchalantly does her makeup, all while working. 😂
THIS! I love how she even gives some eyerolls, I'm sure many of us do them at the same time 🤣🤣🤣
i bet hannah has so much "time freedo" she works from home!! But wait...how is can she get all that and not be in an MLM??? Maybe it's because....she has a legitimate and stable form of income that actually allows all the things MLMs promise.
Side note- To play devil's advocate, I mean, from what i hear youtube content creators don't get much freetime but clearly Hannah's passionate about what she does so i imagine the work's not burdensome, and in the process she gets to warn people of the harmful effects of mlm so she's doing a great service.
“What she just described is a pyramid scheme and my job is done”.
Yes Hannah! That was everything I needed from you, queen!
Ppp
“Beach body is not about cold-messaging. I just sent messages to people I haven’t talked to for years.”
I need this woman to know that saying "how cool is that?" After every single thing you say to try to pitch your mlm, does not suddenly make it cool.
Take a drink every time she says "incredible". :P
...and "but think about it". 🙄
How cool is that tho
She literally said " I make six figures and dont have to invest in product to make that"
*2 minutes later*
"These product are something you HAVE to invest in to be a coach"
it makes me so irritated when people in the beauty service industry claiming they “can’t make time” or “compromise” their schedules.
i’m going on a mini vacay for 3 days and literally just altered my availability to accommodate those days and not lose money. i can preplan the general holidays in advance and reschedule people to different days when necessary. i have 100% freedom of my schedule and love what i do. added perk i don’t answer to women like this because it’s actually MY OWN BUSINESS.
Exactly! People who are truly self-employed are able to do just that with a little pre-planning.
I’ve never seen Syerra spelled that way- how beautiful
Yes! And the hair stylists I know are making plenty of money and taking time off. She was apparently doing it wrong. LOL
hi, i just wanted to say that your name is beautiful!
In contrast it is not your own business if your income depends on you recruiting others and on your company. Those running their own business sell from a range of suppliers and frankly all those who sold for BOO said they had their own businesses, until corporate died, and they were left with nothing - just like the directly employed
Thank you for this. A girl I went to high school with is currently doing Beach Body, and it's been painful to watch. She quit her job as a pharmacist to do BB full-time, it's so insane. But the worst part is the comments she's made in her desperation to recruit - she basically said she's glad she no longer has to give medication out to people who have depression and diabetes because they obviously don't try hard enough to improve their lives. It was infuriating, to say the least. I normally feel bad for huns who've gotten sucked in by MLMs because they want to support their families, but this woman was easily making over $100k in her real job, so I have no compassion for her at all. I'm just glad she's no longer out there judging people for their health conditions.
As a recovering addict, it makes me cringe so much when she talks about how she "needs her shakeology"... and then describes how she needed to figure out how she was going to get money to make sure she gets it. That is such an addict mindset to think, "well I'll make the money back later, so I can just buy it now" regardless of whether you make the money back or not. Because, as we all know, if you do manage to make that money back, it's just going to go straight back into supporting the addiction. I think the addict mindset these MLMs give people makes it just that much harder to leave them.
Also, her explaining how you recruit, I mean, "share with your friends and family" and then they share and then they share and then all of the sudden you have a huge team! ****insert gif of Jim drawing a pyramid for Michael Scott**** 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤦♀🤦♀
Congratulations on your recovery, well done!!
@@easternflower6476 Thanks!! 5 years, 7 months, and counting! :)
yeah telling people its totally okay to live over your means and even loan money like these mlm people do is just scary.
I've heard someone say with investing once:
The amount you invest should be half of what you would concider an amount you think you can still live comfortable with it shouldnt be you likleyhood and savings
Hell yeah, you nailed it
@@gemsbyanastasia way to go!
"burpees are the devil's exercise" COULDNT AGREE MORE
FR, I've killed myself doing them.
I will never, ever, EVER understand how people in MLMs have such an incredibly wrong definition of "CEO", "entrepreneur", and "business owner".
I was thinking the same thing lol. I can’t stand when they constantly say “my business” because they’re still technically employees 😂
@@sophiethelk9557 they’re not even that!!
It's part of cult theory. They use recognizable terms and then redefine them while also discouraging doubt and critical thinking.
A Beachbody coach preyed on me when my ED and body image was at its lowest. Thank you for all your words of truth Hannah! Very cathartic and healing for people like me who’ve had these experiences
Same!
I'll so sorry to hear that!! Hope you're both doing better 🫶 (not a hun!!)
I want to be clear: every body is a beach body. Every body is worthy of being shown and loved and treasured exactly how it is. Fitness journeys are wonderful, and congrats to all who are on them! But you don’t have to be on a fitness journey to still embrace your body.
The beach is gonna get whatever damn body I give it
Love this! 🏖 How to know if you have a beach body:
Step 1: Do I have a body? - Yes
Step 2: Go to the beach
And voila - a beach body ✌🏾
Amen!
Beautifully stated!
@@Robyn0587 OMG, lol!!! 😆😆😆😆😆💜 I just choked on my apple juice from reading your comment! So funny, ❤ love it 😀
Beach body hun: “You are a CEO”
Inigo Montoya: “You keep using that word, I do not think it means what you think it means”
And plenty of companies exist without inventory. Any software company. Except beach body does have inventory, just not at your house bc you’re not a CEO 😂
😂😂 the princess bride quote though!
😂😂😂 that was 👍🏻 good
Love the quote!!
Inconceivable!
My husband is military and the base is rampant with MLMs! We have friends in his squadron we refuse to do dinner with, we don’t want to sit and hear a sales pitch while eating Applebees 🙄
That's interesting. Why is the military saturated with mlms?
@@elsathorson830because the majority of the low income enlisted members spouses are women, and they struggle with boredom, making friends and keeping steady employment throughout multiple moves, over and over. Most have children and even base daycare is wildly expensive. MLM cults are very attractive.
@@elsathorson830 lots of young moms trying to add supplemental income. When my husband was in the military, I had friends in Beach Body, Mary Kay, Norwex, Pure Romance, on and on.
@@elsathorson830I would say because there’s a lot of stay at home wife/moms who want to contribute to the household income
@elsathorson830 it's because most of the wives (or spouses for that matter), don't have steady "regular" jobs from moving so much
I was in Bachbody for almost 5 years. I signed up as a "coach" only for the discounts. I deactivated my account and unsubscribed to Shakeology only after I found your content. Thank you for the Heather Robertson info! I just signed up and will start the low impact program soon! Thank you so so much Hannah!
“There was times I needed to check my bank account before buying something” I feel like we should all do this so we make sure we’re being smart with our money 🤣
I had the same thought.
Same! My immediate thought was "so she aspires to make horrible financial decisions?" Even someone who makes $30k per month has a budget. They just have a much bigger budget than someone who makes $3k per month. But both people are limited in what they can spend and should be smart about how they spend. These people really think that having money means blindly making purchases with no regard to whether they can afford them.
Exactly my thought.
SSDI disability lifestyle every day, babes
MLMers love the words I and me. The exact opposite of successful sales people.
As a piano teacher who graduated from college with a degree in piano pedagogy, it frustrates me that literally anyone can call themselves a piano teacher. From people who can barely play themselves, to people who play skillfully but have no idea how to teach, I've had some students come to me so messed up in their habits from another "teacher" that it took years to unlearn, if ever! I can't get over this woman saying that you don't have to know or be able to do basically anything to be a "coach."
Lol, true story: When I applied to college, I did so knowing that my parents weren't going to be able to help pay for it. I earned a scholarship, thankfully, but the scholarship didn't cover the cost of my books or the rent on my apartment. Or food or gas or my car insurance, among other things. So I had to get creative with earning money beyond the pay I got from my part-time job. I was babysitting two boys 2 days a week and ended up getting the mom to pay me more if I cleaned her house while I was there watching her boys. One day her older son expressed interest in piano lessons. I had very, very basic knowledge of piano playing but I was competent in reading music, as I played violin for 7 years. So I offered myself to the boy's mom as a "piano teacher". All I had to do was stay one lesson ahead of the kid! Worked very well for me. 😉
I don't mean to piss you off, lol 😆, but that's what happened.
I can relate. I'm in college right getting my human services degree. I realized that many people get the jobs I want by just moving up in the company. It frustrates me because I'm putting hours of work into school when these people are doing it without a degree. This is why I've decided I have to continue my education to become a therapist. It's going to take longer but that's just the way of the world I guess. Nobody can work there way up to be a licensed professional counselor without going to college.
Up
Or have any sort of a Dietetic degree and have studied did science, medical therapy management, biochemistry, organic chemistry, microbiology or anatomy and physiology and be giving diet/nutrition advice when what they are doing is actually hurting people physically not to mention mentally and financially. People whom have no degree in any Dietetic degree have no business giving any type of diet or nutrition advice, period.
@@stephanieburgess8217 I considered becoming a dietician but couldn’t handle the workload as I don’t have the brain for medical-related fields. I know a lot about nutrition as I’ve been interested in the subject for 15 years. So I got a lot of respect for the profession.
I cringe at words/phrases like ‘keto’ and ‘muscle confusion‘but my biggest pet peeve is when non-experts try to give nutrition advice. When people ask me basic questions like ‘which protein powder is cheaper, pea or rice?’ Or ‘which greens are high in iron?’ I know I can answer those. But even I know it’s irresponsible to give advice to people about how to eat to manage medical conditions, lose weight, recovery from illness/injury, build muscle, etc. so when I see people with even less knowledge on the subject than myself acting like they understand it, it frustrates me so.
Being exMormon, this was the same tactic they used. Be the best church member, even if it goes against everything you believe in or is mentally draining . To draw people in. Groups like this make my spider-sense go off 😂
That’s one of the reasons Utah has so many MLM members: when you’re already in a cult, it’s easier to excuse behavior in other cults because it doesn’t seem so unusual.
((I was raised in a cult and had to unlearn that nonsense))
Ex-vangelical here. Same! They all use such copy and paste tactics, I can't believe how long it took me to see the manipulation for what is was.
christianity is an mlm. the multi-millionaire televangelists are the top 1% of the company called christianity. the bottom 99% fund the top 1% like an mlm.
@bftdr Christianity is not an mlm nor a multi million dollar evangelical-like church (corporation.) Mlms and multi million dollar evangelical churches (corporations) are trying to portray themselves as Christianity.
This may sound strange, but thank you for having a bare face at the start - I feel so self conscious about my own bare face so much of the time after feeling so reliant on makeup, and it's so refreshing to see you as you, even for a little bit!
Yes, very wholesome!!
I, too, feel insecure about being seen without my hair and makeup done, so this was definitely refreshing and wholesome to see! ❤
I got the notification for this video going up while on the bus home from work and I've never clicked on anything so fast in my life. Love the 'sneaking in' videos, so much insight into the inner insanity of these cul-- er, "organisations"!
I was into beachbody starting in 2007 when the coaching network was brand spanking new. Now I will say I am grateful for beachbody as far as the workouts, I lost 50lbs, got into fitness and it was the catalyst for me getting certified as a personal trainer and group fitness instructor. Heck I even won the $10k monthly transformation contest! Now with that being said, it is MADDENING how extreme the workouts and “eating” plans have become and sad to watch the predatory evolution of the MLM network for beachbody.
There’s a TON of free content on RUclips to help you start on your fitness journey, learn how to eat and create healthy habits. Beachbody has become high pressure weight loss and coaches pretending to care is a dangerous combo. Thank you for all you do Hannah, I’m a fairly new sub and I am loving your content!
I almost joined Beachbody. I was/ am interested in fitness and health. I was more interested in the products and training. If I made some money as well: a bonus. I backed away when I researched the cost of being a “coach” and how compensation worked. I also hate high pressure sales, hun. I noped out.
It was a near miss.
Several years later, I became and ACE certified trainer and worked part-time at a gym. I set my schedule. I work another job I enjoy. Win all around
Love! I got sucked in but then went to qualify too after leaving best thing ever was being qualified!! And my OWN business not Carl’s
Do these people not understand how retirement works!? You are gonna be working forever if you don’t have retirement and neither does your spouse.
Not just that, but no benefits either!
This is no "opportunity call." This is is bragging followed by a sales pitch.
Also, when she said there was no limit to the number of people a coach can recruit, I had flashbacks to my retail days.
The manager would tell me, "Your department needs to produce $35,000 in revenue today."
I would try to explain, "It's a Wednesday morning in the middle of January. Nobody needs a new computer right now. It's also snowing so hard that most of the residential streets haven't been plowed yet. There are TWO customers in the whole store, and one of them is Creepy Carl who just tries to flirt with the cashiers and never buys anything. There's no way I can sell $35,000 worth of product."
And, of course, the manager would tell me I could still hit that goal if I would just work hard enough.
That rep was soooooo bad. Painful to listen to, her delivery. Such a perfect example of the regular human trapped in the MLM game. This is my first video of yours. Love it
I've used legitimate personal trainers for years (I'm not an athelete pr body builder, just someone who needs motivation) and I do NOT want to be 'inspired' by the results and progress of someone who can't do a burpee. Not because it's bad if they can't do one but because it's bad *if they can't teach me how to do one safely* if I ask. A Beachbody coach is not someone who is qualified to be "putting my health and fitness journey first."
The whole 'lol I can't do basic exercise but I'm teaching others anyway' was so disturbing to me for that exact reason. Copying someone with no clue what they're doing is a great way to get seriously hurt...
Out loud I said 'wait what' (it's 2am, I should not be talking aloud) but when she said 'truly it would be an honour for you to be part of my team' my brain ceased functioning and I had to reset it verbally.
Me too! (Not 2am but 2pm and at work). I was like whoooaaaa what do you mean it’s an honor for ME?!?
People that make their money off the vulnerabilities of others reeeeally hate being called out on their underhanded actions… I don’t even want to imagine the amount of hateful emails you get behind the scenes! You’re a brave and admirable soul coming out here shining light of the dark parts of humanity ✨ totally here for it.
It's hilarious to me that they say if you work a normal job you're "building someone else's dream", when the whole structure of Beachbody is building your upline's dream and trying to recruit other people to build YOUR dream. You are never the one actually building your own dream!
You said “that’s a pyramid scheme and my job is done” and then an ad played immediately and I thought for a second that was the end of the video 😂
I wouldn’t have predicted I’d become a fan of this kind of channel. Yet here I am 🤣
If I hear the word “journey” ONE MORE TIME. 😅
I know I'm commenting on an older video as I go through your anti-MLM playlist, but I just have to say how much I love Cooper showing up in your videos. The way he shows his affection in this one is too cute!
Beachbody's meal plans helped me develop an ED so thanks Autumn 👍
Just here to rewatch for the view boost while the team is big mad 😂 You don’t see Target out sending people to defend their company when someone leaves a bad review. If you have to waste more of your time trolling the internet to ensure no one is badmouthing your amazing opportunity, maybe it’s just not a good opportunity fam.
Anyway, great content as always Hannah 💕
the thing that bothers me the most about beachbody is that recruiting for it and finding customers can be inherently insulting. they have to seek out people who might want to lose weight and that means they’re focusing on other people’s bodies and judging them. Like you said, being bigger doesn’t equate to being unhealthy, and these coaches have no idea if someone even WANTS to lose weight or SHOULD be losing weight. it’s disgusting and fatphobic. thank you for this video, you did an incredible job focusing on the things that really matter when it comes to this company.
A beach body rep followed me and interacted with me on Instagram for a long time (thought I had made a new friend 😂) but only dmed me about the opportunity after I posted about my pregnancy loss. Apparently she could help me with my fertility 🤦♀️
And even if you do want to lose weight, these “coaches” are not qualified to provide training.
@@Bananachan289 that's beyond awful
@@Bananachan289 I'm so sorry to hear about your pregnancy loss! It's revolting how MLM huns prey on the vulnerable and hurt. :(
Exactly. They go after you even if you haven’t said you want to lose weight. It’s so gross.

I got sucked into Beachbody years ago before I even knew what MLMs were. Alllllll these zoom recruitment calls are the same. Sadly, I sat through many of them.
Barf. 🤮
The “time freedom” thing is such a lie. I own a business, I had recently opened it back when I joined Beachbody. I was a single mom struggling to grow a small business while raising two kids completely on my own. And allllll of that was *still* less time consuming and exhausting than trying to work this pyramid scheme. It required SO much of my time…calls, FB group interaction, recruiting…it was constant and it drained me. I got scolded and told I wasn’t a team player because I refused to call myself a “coach”. I’m not a coach! I know nothing about coaching! I’m an aesthetician who owns a medical spa! What in the world did I know about nutrition and exercise to “coach” ANYone?! It felt so scammy and I’m ashamed that I held on as long as I did (about six months).
Quitting that pyramid scheme and focusing on my *actual* business was the best thing I’ve ever done. Cutting ties with those obnoxious women felt like such a relief.
Congrats on your business!
No joke, I almost got sucked into FOUR different MLMs a few years ago when I was an 18 year old high school student. It’s disgusting that they target high school and college students and moms. I almost joined one but am grateful I never did. I’m so glad you cut ties with beach body- they’re probably the most toxic MLM in my opinion, with diet culture and everything 😣
Great comment of your first-hand MLM experience.
Girl congrats! As a massage therapist I have these trash MlM’s reach out to me all the time trying to get me to recommend garbage to my clients. Makes me sick when I see other MT’s selling supplements they have no business recommending
Plot twist: everyone in attendance on the beach body call are anti MLM content creators.
😂
I laughed when she said "what job wants you to put yourself first" I literally heard one of the supervisors at work today say you need to take care of yourself first referring to someone who was home sick.
Yes! I am a lowly grocery store cashier and had a mental health semi-breakdown about 3 months after I started working at my current job. My managers and supervisors literally BENT OVER BACKWARD to help me get the time off that I needed to not only recover but to get BETTER than I was before my issue began! They were so supportive and kind! They WANTED me to get better, to know what they could do to help. They validated my feelings and supported me through a very tough time, even though I'm sure it was an inconvenience on the store's schedule! Then, after ALL of that, once I was ready to come back, they again went above and beyond to make sure I didn't come back to too much, too fast and are helping me STILL, because they value me as a person - not just as an employee - and want to see me move up in the company eventually! I don't always love the work, but I love my job! They really do care, and that matters! ❤
I love how all of these MLMs have so much 'training' by which they just mean team calls where they give you platitudes, not actual training.
Aww, Cooper ❤️
Your kitties are such sweethearts.
Thanks Hannah for a fun listen while working, no politics, no news, and no blood pressure! sending Virtual hugs!
I’m in marketing and the amount of people that preyed on me while in college with “amazing marketing opportunities” just for it to be an MLM was disgusting. Even went to an interview that was just this lady trying to recruit me.
Funny enough beachbody zoom calls was my gateway to anti-mlm. I discovered my passion for fitness and nutrition so youtubes algorithm push kiki's beachbody zoomcall vids. Never been in an mlm or really ever been piched one but that video started the rabbit hole and the awareness I have now so my gullible self wont get roped in. Excited for Hannah's impute, the business acumen, the mathematical mastery and just the overall respectfulness is the best
I LOVE THOSE CATS SO MUCH!!!! I think they wonder why you sit in a room talking to yourself all the time, when you could be talking to them. They find it concerning and keep an eye on you in case 911 is needed.
😂😂😂 facts! ❤
In Ponzonomics, the author talks about how he showed the exponential recruitment math during an in person MLM event, and the speaker basically just laughed at him and said he had a scarcity mindset. I feel like these women would do the same.
I just watched a live with Erin and Julie Jo. They had 2 special guests, Juli Anderson said she watched LuLaRich and when they were taking about that her mind could NOT grasp that concept, she said she rewound it a few times to try to understand. There was a wall in her mind. I say this to say that's how manipulated the mind gets when ppl are deep in their MLM. It's literally mind-boggling.
Listening to her has made me realize how very accurate the "Corporate Erin" character is. 😭
If anyone says “bow-teeks” to me, my MLM radar will be going off the charts from now on 😅
It narrows down again when you come across someone who is ALREADY IN ANOTHER MLM
I really enjoy your channel and your presentations. No catty behaviour, no nonsense, no belittling others... Just pure facts and focusing on educating others.
I do as well!
I had to chuckle when you said “That’s Insanity!”. I’m like, you mean like the workout?
Eating disorders have taken so much from me... It's so awful to see an environment so ridiculously inviting of an unhealthy relationship with your body, and they don't even bother to address the risks of it... It's infuriating and just plain sad..
P.S. Hybrid Calisthenics is another free workout program I'd recommend. It's the most body positive and kindest I've found in a long time 🖤
They don't address the risks because they don't care about individual people.
I think the most cult like part is when they share their why. It comes off as oversharing and mudding the lines between a work relationship and a close friend.
This video is giving me motivation to go for a walk, something to enjoy and pass time as I get my daily steps count up. Thank you Hannah, anti-mlm and exercise motivator 😁
As soon as this ‘coach’ started talking, I immediately recognized her voice. She blew up on TikTok and I followed her for a while not knowing she was apart of beach body. She does a very good job of hiding it on her TikTok/instagram and it wasn’t until I checked her weblink to confirm who it was that
I was thinking of …and yup of course it was her. I’m finding a common reoccurrence with these people and their social media pages and how discrete they’re trying to be and it’s so problematic!
Yes!!! I knew exactly who this was when i heard her voice. Sweet potatoes and veggies with liquid aminos. This is such a poor side of her 🤮🤮🤮

Ma'am, I would not. I think I speak for everyone here when I say it would be no honor whatsoever to be a part of your team.
How do people not hear this and think about how NONE of HER goals are relevant to THEIR OWN goals?? None of her downline gets the bonuses when they work hard to keep HER at her rank!! 🌋
The best part of your reaction to when she says something ridiculous. I laughed so hard when she said it would be an honor to help her make her goal...🤦
Well, I feel terrible, I worked for 35 years on someone else's dream but now the money I invested for my retirement hits my bank account every month. Now I'm sitting in Manila in my underwear listening to that Hun begging for recruits and I laugh. I should have joined Mary Kaye when that lady tried to recruit me 30 plus years ago.
As someone with severe anxiety and depression, if someone pretended to be my friend to gain my trust just to be able to pitch to me later, I feel like that would push me deeper into darkness. How dare they.
BeachBody is the one where the compensation plan specifically says that you have to build your team on two legs. If one leg collapses, you’re in deep trouble. This is why it’s a constant hamster wheel.
Some days I can't handle the """"health and wellness"""" MLM's. Every time equating thinness with happiness, health and success
The smart one here is clearly the host, Hannah. I feel so sorry for these ladies, but so happy that Hannah is here to help educate people!!
Yes. I needed this for listening to while working! Love your content.
You're so articulate, informative, and soft hearted. We need both sides of the coin. Content like Chelsea's and yours. Very different and serving different purposes in the anti-MLM movement.
💯💯💯💯
Same
me toooo hahaha I am so happy to see a new upload
I agree and enjoy Erin Bies who probably sits in the middle.
something so funny to me is that when she's talking about inventory, here I am packing orders for my small business - you know, the kind that ISN'T a scam :)
Oohh what’s your business? ☺️
Watch this before you join Beachbody! That's an essential piece for your title. Thank you for adding it!
$94 protein powder?!?!?!? That alone should be enough to send everyone running in the opposite direction.
All MLMs are insidious but this one feels even moreso. Not only does it prey on the often severe insecurities people have about their bodies, it also forces you to have a very unhealthy (in my opinion) relationship with diet and exercise when dramatic "results" are how you can rope others into the scheme and therefore survive in it yourself. Yuck!!
You don't need an MLM to lose weight and/or live a healthier life and you certainly don't need one to have a "beach body." If you have a body and put it on a beach, congratulations, you have a beach body.
Ps. I just discovered your channel a few days ago and have been binging the top fails playlist since. So good! I could listen to you talk/educate about anything.
It’s 1am, I have just got off work. This is what I needed. Thank you for the considered research and thought that goes into your videos. Love them!
Oh man I was hoping you’d get to this! 😏 What she fails to mention as to why she made it to the top 10 is because she went viral on Tik Tok and has like over a million followers over there. She wasn’t just your average gal building her “business”.
Edit: I also want to add she actually is ALSO an “influencer”, she does sponsored posts and has affiliate links. And up until she recently she hardly EVER talked about the “business”, it was always the workouts and nutrition side. But after their trip to Italy she was “inspired” (aka told by the others there) to share the opportunity more.
She’s so toxic. Her upline and their upline are equally shocking.
@@TheSewingRoomCincy I actually don’t think I’ve ever seen her talk about either of them
I can’t stand her. She literally puts BB above her BABY. It’s so gross 😢
She went viral on TikTok for carrots and mustard
@@kristinkls ha yup 🤣
You always say that if "you are new, I'm so happy you're here." I'm not new to your channel but I always say "no, we (the viewers) are happy YOU'RE here." Love your channel so much and keep up the good work Hannah!
I know this is old but I had no idea that beach body “coaches” were just sales people.
The mlm woman just reminded me of Rachel Hollis "What about me makes you think I want to be relatable" 🤣🤣🤣
Thank you queen for blessing us with a new video right before my surgery!👏🏻
Charlene Johnson, one of the former fitness instructors for Beach Body left and exposed the terrible things that had happened to her. They wanted her to keep losing weight and if she did it would have killed her. She did a video about it sometime ago.
It was horrifying to listen to her story!
Was it beachbody who wanted her to lose more weight? Ugh. I thought her sister and her besties are making millions as coaches?
@@meredithg227 She doesn’t name names, but she said it was people very high up in Beachbody. I think her sister is still a coach, not sure about all her friends though
Also, Hannah no shade on anyone else but THANKS, for NOT interrupting every minute to add unnecessary comments on your included videos. Refreshing.
😂😂 love this
I love that you shouted out Heather Robertson again. You inspired me to check her out and I have been doing 12 week 2.0 and LOVE it. I am feeling so much better in my body, so thank you again for sharing.
I emailed you bc I saw a reel about a hun admitting people buy their ranks. I hope she hasn’t taken it down. I’m sure you inbox is so full. You are my favorite anti mlm creator. I’ve binged you for weeks. Thanks for helping get the word out about these abusive criminal organizations
If you didn’t submit it thru google docs, you should go to the description box where she lists how to submit just so she might see it before it might get taken down. Sounds juicy!
They for sure buy ranks. I’ve seen it down first hand!

Relatable.
I was roped into Beachbody as a college student and boy did it wreck my ability to live a BALANCED healthy lifestyle - I've been working hard to restore that ability ever since. I became fixated on becoming smaller (despite being a perfectly healthy weight and content with my body when I started), getting noticeable progress photos, and eating by their restrictive nutrition plans' rules all the time. And that's because as this video shows, these kinds of goals and habits are vital for influencing others to join Beachbody, and the company frames them as not just harmless, but healthy. By the time anti-MLM content woke me up to how messed up Beachbody and MLMs are and I finally quit, I had developed ortheorexia, was 15 ibs underweight, and became totally used to feeling like I might pass out multiple times a day. In the 6 years since, I have healed my relationship with my body, working out, and nutrition to a great extent, although I know I will be working on that for the rest of my life. Thank you for spreading the word on the evils of MLMs, especially Beachbody - videos like this completely transformed my life. ❤
This sounds extremely dangerous for anyone that has ever fought an eating disorder or dealt with disordered eating.
I’d seen her on the hunsnark subreddit, but I think this is the first time I’ve seen her speak at length. That was a whirlwind of self-aggrandizement, condescension, defensiveness, and deception… ugh.
As always, the best part is when Zeke or Cooper decides to twerk for us. ❤️
My husband and I cracked up at this video! YOU are my free workout! I only let myself watch your video while I am stepping, dancing, anything to move and get my daily step count and minutes of activity up!
I joined as a "coach" about 6 years ago. I quickly returned all the protein powder, tools etc. Nope! First off, their coaches are not professionally trained (unless they are high up). A lot of the programs, except for Joel's programs, are NOT beginner friendly.
Been so busy this week I hadn’t had time to watch this video yet and ended up seeing your stories on Instagram first and knew that first thing this morning while I get some baking done that I had to watch it. I hope even 1/4 of the Huns who came here to report your video watched some of it and realized that you are absolutely not bullying or doing anything besides sharing the truth. Thanks for all you do Hannah and going about it in the kindest ways!
as someone who struggles/has struggled with disordered eating, it is painful to listen to her talk about her relationship with food and her body, as i see a lot of parallels.
1 hour!? yaaaaay, i was so bored. Thank you Hannah, i really enjoy your content!
I am so glad to hear you make a video on Beachbody. I was an accountant for Beachbody once upon a time and they separate their business into two branches. One is the product branch where they sell shakeology and videos.
The other is the MLM Branch. I got transferred to the MLM branch which they just call "the coaching branch." So in the intro training of the "coaching branch", he described it as the pyramid s- Then caught himself and said "You know the MLM portion." I did not last long. The people handling the money at Beachbody *know* it's a scam.
whenever I watch these videos I get more motivated to put more energy into my digital marketing business and my craft business. Never will I ever join an MLM in my life again!!
Beachbody is so interesting because coaches only make money on selling shakeology and challenge group packs. You can join beachbody on demand (about $100 / year) and completely bypass the outrageous prices charged by coaches. It's like the company undermines its own MLM by providing easier and cheaper access directly to the programs. Thanks for your videos, Hannah!
Usborne books are like that - they sell through other channels for less than they charge distributors
My areas biggest pride event happened yesterday and I saw TWO MLMs!!!!! I was so proud of myself for recognizing them!! One I saw was a booth for doteera (I walked away SO FAST!!!! It was also completely vacant of people but both booths on the other sides were packed they were actual small businesses people making their own shirts and pins and selling them) and in the parade itself there was a pure romance pick up all decked out in the pure romance logo and such and the group behind it was MASSIVE!! I stood there watching them all thinking omg the couple in the truck are the up line and this is their down line 😱
These are also two that I never knew were MLMs until I found your channel
Thank you for keeping me safe from scammers!!!! 😆🤟
The Antibot has a video about PR and their presence at Pride
Hannah, it's great that you brought up the potential danger of the constant before and after posting as a marketing tool. There was one woman I saw in a vlog who was in beach body, it was a while ago so I have no idea who it was, but she'd purposefully let herself gain more weight than she needed during her pregnancies so that when she used beach body programs to lose weight postpartum she'd have a more dramatic before and after. There was another woman (in it works though, not beach body) who was posted on the anti mlm subreddit saying when she was in the mlm she'd purposefully yoyo diet the same twenty lbs. Similarly, a top beach body elite coach said shed relax and let herself put some weight/lose muscle on in between the releases of new beach body work out/diet programs so that whenever there was a new release she could get very thin and toned again.
This is just sooooo unhealthy and it's both shocking and terrible that these women who are "selling the dream" by appearing to be the picture of health are engaging in such toxic behaviors.
Hannah - I hope you see this. 👀
I love your anti-MLM content. I subbed a few months ago and I have been binge watching whenever I have time. I also love your makeup because you do regular, daily makeup and nothing crazy dramatic. It's extremely relatable and I love that! I feel like I can do exactly what you're doing with makeup application. So many people who do their makeup on camera make it look impossible to recreate if you're not an actual artist. Keep these videos coming! 💜💜💜💜💜
