As a former iiluminaughtii viewer, I'm glad I got this video in my RUclips feed as I finally have a RUclipsr I can watch that does similar types of content without having to watch a super problematic person.
Dont jinx it . . .
samee! something about blare always bugged me even before all the stuff came out so its nice to like the person discussing my topics of interest lol
@@SylvieLePain i see ppl say this a lot when someone is exposed for smth, may i ask what specifically bugged you about her? (im curious bc people said the same thing ab kwite and he turned out to be innocent so i tend to take it with a grain of salt)
@@6Shots_ofEspresso oh I was just annoyed by her for no reason. It’s not something I can explain, just a personal preference. I think her style of speaking reminded me of people in real life that annoyed me or something haha. It was never like her content or anything, just a personal thing for me 👍🏻 (I’m not one of those people to say that I never really liked someone after they’ve been exposed just to say it and act like I was one of the first or anything like that haha)
@@SylvieLePain oh okay! yeah, i get it. sometimes you just dont like someone, i just hate it when ppl say “i always had a bad feeling about them!!!” when there was literally nothing ^^
I had to cancel a credit card one time because someone put unauthorized charges from Pink Zebra on it! I had never heard of the company before, but now that I know it's an MLM, I'm even more mad lol.
Not the company's fault obviously...
@@jamesgilbertjr4963it’s not that it’s the company’s fault. It’s more like if someone stole my credit card to go golfing I would be pissed…because if you’re going to steal my card don’t waste my money on boring shit or an MLM! Do something fun dammit! Imma report that shit as fraud anyway lmao, you may as well LIKE what you stole.
@@jamesgilbertjr4963found the MLMer.... 😂
I'm all for reducing sensory overload. I suffer with chronic pain and it is so much worse when I get sensory overload and then end up triggering migraines and only a dark silent room helps.
Same! I spend most days with tinted glasses and earplugs.
SAME!!!
You should look into a book called the way out by Alan Gordon and the tell me about your pain podcast!
I had students who would wear headphones in the hallway or during times I wasn't teaching. I understood it was for anxiety and I was fine with it. Admin didn't get it and several times I had to stand between my student and the principal to protect their mental health and tell the student to keep walking and I would handle it. So I get it and appreciate you expressing this to others who might not understand it.
Show admin the beginning of this video
You’re such a lifesaver to those students. Thank you for prioritizing their mental health when others don’t get it.
School is suppose to prepare you for the real world and be sorta draconian. You need to overcome your personal problems if possible😢 as long as it doesn’t physically hurt maybe the mental strain will be temporary but we don’t know if you’re coddled. We live in a capitalist society and esthetics are the first thing seen and judged. Even if you’re 10% more efficient managerial figures would still prefer you looking more engaged sans 🎧. If you realize you’re a Super minority that can’t function normally due to sound sensitivity get discreet earplugs so others don’t think you’re rebellious or being disrespectful
@@kimwhatmatters4085No. No, in fact, we don't have to conform to ableist standards, especially when they cause us pain and harm. It is ridiculous to insist that we hide ourselves for the comfort of normies.
And like she said, noise hurts! Thats not an exaggeration. Overstimulation is physically painful. And for people like me with chronic pain, it can make our chronic pain worse too.
And of course, if we have to deal with processing overstimulation, we're gonna be less productive. Its much better to throw on some ear protection and get work done than to mask and pretend everything is fine until we can't take it any more.
So the next time you see someone wearing noise cancelling headphones, or stimming, or whatever... just move on. Don't say anything. You don't need to have an opinion. It doesn't affect you. Just move on. The world will be fine.
@kimwhatmatters4085 harm like this doesn't create endurance & strength to overcome these pains, it causes deeper distress that becomes harder & harder to stabilize from.
we teach people to endure & feel shame & guilt for trying to find relief/ avoid sources of pain, but don't give them the tools & space to recover.
the "real world" thing is an excuse by the rich to keep doing whatever they want despite how it hurts the broad population below them. life can be fair, life can be soft & caring & loving. but so many people have been brainwashed to believe that these current levels of cruelty & pain & unfairness & apathy is normal. it's not!
the world can be a gentle place. we have to do things to change the power imbalances & make space for these changes though.
It honestly means a LOT that you talked about your overstimulation and wearing headphones to counteract it. I’m autistic and I struggle with auditory overstimulation, and I can’t tell you how many times I’ve been made fun of or called rude because I wear my headphones literally EVERYWHERE. Thank you for normalizing these things 💕
What most people don't realize is in an autistic person's brain, noises are literally translated to pain. I'm not sure if it'd everyone on the spectrum, but my bonus son had that issue, and he had Aspbergers(sorry if I spelled it wrong). Headphones were his best friend and I made sure he had extra pairs in his bags/coat pockets and 2 over the ear sets so he had one for home and one for school. Just doing that helped him to improve his ability to focus in school, and he was happier at school. So even tho I'm not diagnosed/om the spectrum, I am empathize, as my anxiety can make noise overestimating, even painful, at times. I'm so sorry that more people can't be human about things that are a type of normal human behavior. I mean, I think it's normal if a noise hurts your ears, then you want to cover them!
I wear headphones all the time. They aren’t noise canceling but it’s like my security blanket. They are light weight and go around my head. I would totally recommend for anxiety.
I love wearing my massive headphones everywhere 🖤 sorry people are rude about it! I’m not usually approached about it so maybe work on your RBF 😘 I purposely give off - “please don’t talk to me” 😊
@@funsizedi88just FYI, Asperger's is no longer recognized. All autism is on the same spectrum, so it is all called autism spectrum disorder. Hans Asperger was a Nazi so it was never a great name to begin with but that's not the reason for the change. The distinction never actually existed in the first place and calling it a different name is harmful because it implies that those with "Asperger's" were superior to others with autism. A lot of people who were given that diagnosis aren't aware of the change, so this is not a criticism of you, just a heads up because it is considered offensive and hurtful.
@@Cheyscrochetshopyou're lucky if you can fend people off with just a facial expression 😅 I always wore headphones on the bus both because of the noise and because I didn't want to talk to people but it never stopped anyone. Guys would sit down and just start talking or worse, grab one side and pull it away from ear so I would hear them 🫥 probably only a thing that happens on the bus though.
As an autistic person who often gets overwhelmed and over stimulated, noises can indeed hurt, always good to see people normalize dealing with it ❤ you do you, we want you comfortable as we are watching your vids !
Same! But also it can be a symptom of migraine like many don’t know that you can have migraines without the actual headache part for instance I just get the nausea and light/sound sensitivity part and sometimes these optical symptoms in my vision.
I was just about to jump into the comments to say that noise sensitivity with stress is super normal, but people have beat me to it!! Especially for neurodivergent people, but even for neurotypical people, processing can get funky when your brain is overstimulated. If sounds hurt, you’re not alone!
Gun range headphones worked wonders for my younger self
I have sensory problems too and every other video of Isabellas only comes though the right headphone and it makes it so I cannot watch it, which is a shame because I love her content.
I was a about to say, it sounds like a ND thing and she should definitely not feel weird about taking care of her nervous system.
Even if you DO end up making loads of money with MLMs, you have to be completely okay with knowing that 99% of people that sign up under you are going to lose money. Who would want to do that?
I just can't imagine working that hard for only a little over $800 a year - and that's not even profit!
I’m from the Midwest, and occasionally my mom and I would venture a state over and visit a little town that’s known for its haunted hotels & shopping. In the town center, circa 2014 - there used to be a “Pink Zebra Boutique” & I still remember how overwhelming the smell was when I walked into that place. Think butterscotch mixed with cinnamon and something super floral. Anyways, the owner was working that day & she sold all of the wax melts + things like Miss Me jeans, “Live Laugh Love” T Shirts & other things that were very “I live in the Midwest & it’s 2014”. I haven’t thought about this in years, but looking back I remember her grabbing my mom and taking her to the side while I looked at the clothes and things and asking her where she was from, where she worked, and other personal questions. I was around 14 and oblivious to MLM’s but I know for a fact she was trying to pitch an MLM opportunity now, only because of how rude she was to us when my mother apparently said “No thanks” and told me we were leaving.
unrelated, but was this in Eureka Springs?
@@Jewol Yes it was!
My aunt worked for them. You were probably smelling the different pumpkin scents and sweet pea. Im not allowed around the smell’s anymore because its to much and causes sensory overload. But you were definitely smelling sweet pea cause you can smell that stuff a mile away.
Peace & love, but not all rep's are cringy like that. Can't expect people to react well to that type of behavior, right? There are lots of good PZ consultants out there that aren't like the person you experienced. They aren't permitted to have shops like that any longer. They have a website like everyone else nowadays. 😊
As an ADHD girlie, I'm so happy to see other people use noise-canceling headphones to improve functioning.
Same. I just bought a pair of cat headphones for the office because hearing chatter is overstimulating. And complete silence can also be overstimulating. Because it be like that 😂.
I didn’t know this was a thing other people did it makes me feel better. I have head phones in all day long sometimes not playing but mostly playing on low so when I need to think things I really have to focus to think them and I don’t think of the million other things that are going thru my brain (idk if I’m explaining it right)
I love seeing more smaller mlms to see they’re all a problem. I’d be interested to see you do Jamberry and when they tried so hard to change paths and failed hard.
I would love jamberry one! I loved those when I was a kid, no idea they were an mlm!
Oh god I wholeheartedly thought pink zebra was a locally owned business that set up a booth at our festival every year :(. This is so sad to hear.
Me TOO!!!
same. i have a couple of jars sitting on my shelf rn,,,, the peanut butter cookie one just hits different
I'm a small business and do craft faires that some times allow mlm people. being next to the pink zebra people was the WORST. they had their wax melters running multiple scents and it was so overwhelming to be next to all the smells D: at the end of the show, she gave me her "business" card and said that we all have to look out for each other and I should let her know the shows I make a lot of money at so she can apply. LOL. lady, no. XD
Sort of rude of you. She is a working women like you. Take the card and say ok.
God I hate the stands that are stinky! It drives customers off. Like lady!
I would get physically ill from the smells.MLM should be separated from craftspeople.
@whenthechipsaredown9355 i now only vend at faires that only allow hand made. mlms are ruining everything
@@AFBudgets i took her card. I'm just not helping out an mlm lady. to say she is a working lady, just like me is hilarious though. she buys shitty smelly products in pink containers to sell to people. I actually make things.
Oh I got ADHD and anxiety and I 1000% hear you with the noise hurting. Both that and even light hurts when I'm overwhemed and over stimulated. I'll literally have to work in a pitch dark room with noise cancelling headphones. You do whatever works for you!
Just yesterday I had my loop earplugs in and my prescription sunglasses on just to get through the work day! Unfortunately my ADHD means I absolutely cannot work remotely and get anything done so a dark room isn't an option but those two things really help take the edge off. Luckily I have understanding colleagues and management who know what they mean and adjust how they interact with me as well
When I had to work in office at my last job, they kept the lights on super bright and our desks were squished together in rows, so I would get super anxious and would even start feeling exhausted and couldn’t shake it. I had no idea why until I realized I was overstimulated. I only go into an office a couple times a week now at my new job but they are way more understanding and there’s more people like me on my team so the lights are dim, there’s no music playing and we have more of a cubicle style. Plus, we are able to go off and work in a focus room if we still feel overstimulated. It helps so much!
Yes! Certain lighting seems to make my anxiety worse. I wasn't sure if it was just me overthinking the lights or if that was a normal occurrence. I only started having anxiety the past couple of years so I had no idea that light and noise added to it.
I love how you cover smaller MLMs because it's so important that this material exists. This is the first video I've seen on Pink Zebra but the company pops up with some frequency in the FB MLM live video groups. I genuinely think their scent blend/recipe concept is fun (mix different scents to make your perfect custom scent) - but that can be easily replicated with non-Pink Zebra wax bead products and it incentivizes their consultants to buy a lot of scents.
I totally understand the noise. I’m a paramedic so I after being around sirens for 24 hours a shift, I don’t want any noise at home. IF I turn on the tv, the volume is all of the way down. Otherwise it stays off the entire time. I just want calm and quiet.
good on you for doing that work. some paramedics just saved my life the other day and i wish i could thank them.
As a chronically anxious human that also has recently figured out that she deals with a lot of painful noises/overstimulation, Loop earplugs help me, maybe they'll help you (or anyone else that needs them!) too.
Loop headphones? Is loop the brand or is that a type of headphone? I can't stand the over the ear headphones, but I don't like the tint in ear ones either. Ugh. Only ones that are truly comfortable are the soft headband Bluetooth headphones meant for sleeping.
@@funsizedi88 They're actually sound dampening earplugs, not headphones! they fit really nicely in my ears and keep things dampened while I can still hear conversations. It helps with all the extra background noise that causes me to get super overwhelmed. (Not sponsored I swear I just love them 😂)
loop earplugs !! i use headphones myself but loop earplugs are lovely.
As someone who struggles in loud environments, I love my Loop earbuds. I have the experience ones so that I can go about my day, still hear things when needed, but at a volume that is much more comfortable for me. It has changed how I am able to socialise.
as a certified Sad Babe I appreciate your openness with mental health and overstimulation and everything!! Yes! Ending stigma saves lives
these wax beads looked really familiar and I remembered I saw a bunch at my local secondhand store. 😂
I'm a sound soother and my husband is the opposite. I like noise all the time to chill (at a proper volume) and he likes silence. We take a few hours to chill and that's him with his noise cancelling headphones and me watching RUclips hahah. I love how you speak on this ❤❤️
As someone who is obsessed with people debunking MLMs and showing how problematic they are, I appreciated the thorough breakdown you gave. I knew a bunch of the info, but you present it in a very accessible and accurate way. Even if the person is looking into a different MLM, this is a good video to show them to dissuade them.
I saw so many Pink Zebra sellers on TikTok live. I was wondering what they were. Thank you for the video
I remember we went to like a craft fair type of thing one time when I was a kid and came upon this booth that let you craft your own candles from those little wax sprinkles. I was a very sensory child and LOVED it. Smelled pretty nice too. I always considered that a nice memory. When i saw the title I went CAREENING back to that moment and that was most definitely a pink zebra stall I made that candle at 😭 thank god they didn’t sucker my mom into an mlm
I love home fragrance. I try find smaller homemade melts/sprays as they’re normally higher quality than store ones and not that much more. I keep running into people relabelling MLM products as their own handmade ones, it’s so sad to see!
Also while you touched on the headphones thing, I have ADHD & I’m sick of seeing MLM products promising cures & misleading information. I’d love you to touch on some of them that are targeting autistic/ADHD people. There’s a massive rise of it on TikTok :( x
As a former Illuminaughtii viewer, I'm glad this got suggested to me! I've missed listening to MLM exposure content
real
I wouldn’t recommend affiliate marketing either because a lot of the mlm companies are moving that direction to avoid being shut down for mlm practices
In a way, having MLM products be reasonably priced almost scares me more than when they are overpriced. At least if they overprice them you know they are paying SOMEONE commission. EDIT - also, my gaming headphones would impress an air traffic controller. I couldn't hear an explosion on my front porch while I am wearing them. 10/10, reduces overwhelming sensory input.
I’m just baffled by how the selling works. Like “you have to BUY the products from us out if your own money, then you have to advertise and sell it, and at the end of the day you’re only allowed a maximum of 35% of the money you earned selling the products you bought.”
Explain to me how that makes sense
Yeah, that's the MLM recipe.
I have a sad story about this one. 7 years ago I worked in a phone center with a woman who also worked for Pink Zebra. She was this kind and funny woman that lived with her aunt and uncle in the country. She rented the back office/home part of the families barn because she couldn’t afford her own place. The kitchen was a van that was fused to the building somehow. Anyway, she brought me over to swim in the family’s pool next door after work, and we had to go change in her place. I walked in and instantly was hit with 1) the stench of prettified dog poop and 2) some sort of sharp candy smell. This poor woman had been selling Pink Zebra to get the discount to scent her own home. Because she never picked up after her dog. And not just all over the house, but there was a bedroom she didn’t use. It was her and her husbands before he left her … so she absolutely refused to ever go in that bedroom. Instead her tiny dog used the entire bed/room as his toilet. And she attempted to cover up the scent with Pink Zebra wax. I’ve never forgotten that sickly sweet but rotten smell associated with a deep deep depression and pet neglect. She was a nice woman she just had so many Heath and mental issues and someone took advantage of her desperation by selling her an MLM. She almost tried to get me to do it but I had already heard of anti MLM.
So sad. Sounds like she was extremely depressed 😔
Do you know what ever happened to the dog?
@@bluealien-mae I don’t, we lost touch when we both left that job
That poor woman!
YALL i was just at this festival thing my city does (every first friday of the month, downtown closes and they set up tents for food and local/small businesses and it's to encourage ppl to go out and spend money on the local economy) and i SAW PINK ZEBRA. So glad i watched this first so i knew to steer clear
Im neurodiverse with Fibromyalgia and you just spoke to my soul as a mom of 4 lol. Noise cancelling headphones are a must and if you have to have some hearing, look into loops ❤
Is Loops worth it? I heard about it on Swell Entertainment YT channel but for concerts and festivals and thought it might be a good way to block noise without heaving headphones
I have the same sensitivity to sensory issues. I love wearing noise cancelling headphones while knitting and watching shows 💜
Such a good point about how much extra people have to buy constantly to try and sell in these MLMs. My mom sells Pampered Chef and her garage is filled with Pampered Chef stuff that she never uses and was told she had to buy in order to show people during parties.
I am still signed up as a consultant but don’t actively sell anymore. It is expensive and costly to be a consultant and I never made much. It was fun meeting new people and having parties but we constantly do “recruiting” and I didn’t feel good about it. I stopped actively selling and now I have about $10,000 in merchandise I’m stuck with. The quality of all the products have severely deceased in the last 4 years and the prices have increased. I highly suggest don’t sign up, it will suck your bank account dry. You don’t make much money selling but costs you a fortune!
This is literally why I got noise cancelling headphones a few months ago. They are pretty much magic! Hope you’re feeling better💜 I also love with both of those diagnoses and it can be a real bitch! But wishing love peace and happiness!!
Sensitive nervous system. My therapist taught me about using it as a sign for an oncoming episode with my ptsd/anxiety/depression. I carry noise cancelling on my person at all times jic lol
I do the exact same thing with headphones! If noise or like, regular old anxiety gets to be too much, I get really overwhelmed, and it will set off my fibro. I've taken to wearing earbuds around to help dampen sound, it's helped so much with sensory overload.
sounds ABSOLUTELY hurt!! It's not silly at all. I'm the same with touch. When I'm feeling overstimmy, even the slightest brush of someone against me makes me wanna hurl.
I did pink zebra as a hobby. I want to get my own business plan and check out small loans to buy products still paying those off because I couldn’t make enough money to pay off my loan and replenish my stock. I was hustling every single day. It didn’t matter. Also the company lies to the company makes a very hard for you to make money and it’s been two years and we’re still waiting on our new website and back office.
Never apologise! I saw a few people recommend Loop earbuds, I think that’s what they’re called, (I’ve never used them personally) but might be worth looking at to help cancel noise. They look stylish AF as well!
I've got those, I looove them! I'd recommend them 1000%
I use Loop! Love them ❤
As someone with adhd, i can really sympathise and relate to the sounds hurting. It sucks, but that’s what we got noise cancelling headphones for 🥰🥰
2:28 as an autistic person sounds are very painful among a ton of other things
LOOPS!!! They’ve saved me. They’re tiny, comfy, and not huge headphones. As a mom with AuDHD, an autistic husband, and 4 neurodivergent kids, Loops are a must!!!!
Isabella you don’t have to apologize about your set up, it’s understandable! I’m just happy to see you uploaded!
I hope everything goes smoothly with the move 💕
glad someone else has that thing where sometimes sounds will just start hurting. Like, physical pain in the ears, like it was too loud, but without anything actually being that loud or the reflex to cover your ears.
EDIT: you know what? Subbing just for that
My grandson is high functioning autistic. He gets overwhelmed with sounds. When we go somewhere that there is singing (no matter how good) we have to put headphones on him. Yet he loves car races. He is a precious little boy. I just bring this up to explain i understand sounds can be overwhelming. Im so sorry!
22:30 i just noticed they also misspelled "Selling". Adding an extra L. Goes to show they couldn't be bothered with spell checking their comp plan
I am so glad that these topics are being brought to light more. I am a former realtor and I feel like I saw more and more “mlm” type teams being put together when I was leaving it. It was strange.
I had a friend who did a candle mlm and I didn’t realize it was a scam back then but she would ask me periodically about buying candles and of course I would because I felt bad but what irritated me every time is that she would put in one order for all her people and charge shipping for each person that would place an order,,, and it was all sent to her house and I had to go pick it up… why did every person pay shipping and it didn’t come to my own house. After a few times of that I was done. And that is super scammy.
Isabella! I’m a tLMHC and it is completely valid and normal to be overstimulated especially when you’re under large amounts of stress due to your high cortisol levels!! Your body is in fight or flight and that can make you especially sensitive to different sounds, temperatures, and other sensory things. I hope you’re able to practice some mindfulness and relax at some points in your day, sending you lots of love right now 💛
Love you Isabella! Wishing you the best of luck with moving and getting your space in order! So excited for you!! Excellent video ❤️❤️❤️
One of the first hang outs I had with my friend her mom gave me a bunch of pink zebra wax melts cause she had so much. It actually smells really nice! It feels little funny and heart breaking to find out it’s an mlm. I accidentally broke the wax melter that was gifted to me and thought about buying a replacement from them cause I really liked the design but I don’t feel good giving them my money now.
when the video started playing i literally told myself, ooo i love that background. i also love wearing headphones when I'm overly stimulated
I use the loop earbuds to help with noise sensitivity. They are amazing! and more discreet than normal headphones. Helps when I’m overstimulated and I can feel the sounds like they’re painful, like you said.
Hi. You don’t need to apologize about your set up. However good luck with your move, I know it sucks. I’m happy that you’re open about your mental health issues. Also do whatever works for you. It was a very informative video, I have kind of hear about this company, I thought it was a clothing one.
your videos are amazing! :) really love seeing someone shed light on predatory/ exploitative marketing schemes etc. that target vulnerable people, you've probably saved a lot of people from getting involved with them and you make the videos very engaging and accessible too
As someone with autism and adhd this is so relatable. I also use loop earplugs And they are a game changer
Sounds and specific voices are hard for me when I’m overstimulated. It’s super relatable
I've just been eating up your videos since I found your channel about 3 days ago! Thank you for the content ❤️
My daughter is 9. She has anxiety and wears loops at school. She's the only one who does. I am going to show her some of this to share that other girls wear headphones to feel better. This is great for girls. ❤
I hate that they're an MLM... because I am obsessed with their wax scents. It's all ive used for 5 years now.. :(
Same! I love their scents and they last so much longer than the ones I buy at Target … 😫
They are not like the 'Bad MLM's' out there. They really actually help a lot of folks & they actually smell so good because they used to work w/B&BW. That's where the people started & branched out for themselves when B&BW really blew up. Also, they now have a wall hug that you can put scented oils too! This company is not a typical MLM, from experience.
I have not heard about this one! Your videos are always so informative and interesting! Looking forward to watching this video ♥
"noise hurts" - this!!! I walk around sometimes like I'm in a haunted house of jump scares. lol
Thank you for talking about your anxiety and depression. We would all benefit from talking about it, because, honestly, it's something EVERYONE has. Some have it occasionally, some daily. Some are level 10, some are level 1, and some slide all around the scale.. It's OK and normal and it's something you CAN live with and be healthy with. :)
hey thanks a lot for timestamps in the recent videos, really helps espacially when rewatching videos
I totally get what you mean at 2:53 since I do struggle with a similar thing. I can get easily get overwhelmed by noises or just too much happening in my environment. I also have a pair of noise canceling headphones, the Skullcandy Hesh ANCs, and they are so great. My boyfriend got them for me because I struggle to deal with my Mother who is kind of bipolar and can have rapid mood swings and start yelling about the dumbest of things, so being able to just put my headphones on, turn noise canceling on, and just put some videos or music on that can drown her yelling out is so nice.
OMG I get the sounds thing. I tell my husband all the time, when I am anxious the sound of fans or similar makes me feel sick. I’ve never heard someone else explain it like that!
I had never heard of Pink Zebra till a few days ago but have known about Scentsy for years
They are simply selling "pink." Unfortunately, that appears to influence women. The color, the smells....sort of like the other company that sells the pink drink.
Oh dear, I’m the same way with my anxiety. Loud noises and large crowds overwhelmed me during the peaks of my episodes. 😢
Definitely, I feel ya ❤
Ughhh I see this mlm at every flea market or festival here in Florida…
Sounds are bothersome to me as well. I just figured out that you can turn off the noise of the microwave. Love it 💕
There's ear buds made especially for that reason. They are made to cut down on ambient sounds. One of my Amazon reviewers revised them and she LOVED them. You should try them!
Could you share the name?
Please share the name!
omg i subscribed halfway through this video and i can’t believe you don’t have millions of subscribers! cool to be here before you blow up 🙌 love your good vibes and smart commentary!
I was about to join this today cause they had a deal then fate brought me to your video
I have never heard of this one . Here for it!
TBH I LOVE the actual products of Pink Zebra but I would never join as a consultant. I have heard TERRIBLE THINGS about how consultants treat each other and many people have been banned by their competitors.
My cousin has been selling pink zebra for years, it is constantly on my timeline and she always gifts people pink zebra items on Christmas and birthdays. I’m not going to knock her hustle but it irks me when she talks about running her own business mostly because she’s just buying and reselling scented wax and wax pots to anyone and everyone she can talk into buying it. I don’t even hate their scents but they all smell the same, and the ones that stink REALLY STINK!
I get overwhelmed by sound even in quiet rooms due to my hypersensitive hearing so I highly recommend Loop earplugs. They muffle background noise but I can still hear people I'm talking to. I literally recommend them to everyone with noise issues
As someone who is also overly stimulated by sounds, I would 10/10 recommend the Loop earplugs!
I have PTSD and I freaking JUMP at sounds on days where my stress levels are super high. Yesterday my heart was racing then I got super tired. Just had to lay on my acupressure mat, put in ear plugs and nap for 2-3 hours. It was wonderful and I was able to keep studying afterwards.
Taking care of yourself is responsible and cool! Love that you brought it up.
Oooh, I’ve never tried an acupressure mat combined with headphones! I know laying absolutely flat on a hard surface in a safe space helps me, though. Best of luck with managing your symptoms. PTSD stuff is *super* exhausting for sure
they have DW Home candles at marshall’s and tj maxx. i love them so much!

You might want to look into misophonia regarding the sound sensitivity. My roomate has misophonia and has really strong reactions to certain types of sounds.
New viewer here! I love finding new channels I love and I just fell in love with this channel in the first five minutes! ❤
Legit my husbands old headphones are what is keeping me sane. Having everything still there but quieter is so much less agitating, and makes taking care of a very loud 6yo doable without becoming an overstimulated demon.
Omg loud sounds hurt when I’m anxious! When I’m in a car is when it’s the worst
I also have visual processing issues 😅 it can be very overwhelming on top of an already overwhelming situation
I completely understand about the noise. I recently got noise canceling headphones and it’s awesome!

Doesn't sound silly at all. Just sounds like a sensory disorder. I have all manner of things that make me feel uncomfortable, like certain fabrics that make my skin sad, for lack of a better descriptor.
Yess DW Home is so good!!! If you’re in Canada you can get from Marshalls and winners and homesense for great prices!!!!!
Yeah they’re in the uk too and OMG their candles
Noise cancelling headphones are so important to me for my daily life
I don’t remember the name of the company, it’s something I never heard of. But they had a job listing on indeed and I applied. Because I thought it was a JOB. But when I went into the office for an interview I realized oooooh I have to spend my own money to start selling products, yeah I’m good.
I currently have a storage tote with some Pink Zebra samples in it. Back in 2015 I was working in a seasonal job as a storage manager. As my role came to a close my boss (district manager) pulled me aside to tell me she was going to quit working for the company going forward as she and her daughter had started a small business the previous year and it was doing really well. She asked if I wanted to come work for them. I asked what it was and she said "my daughter and I make wax melts and candles. We're to the point that we're bringing in enough money to turn it into our full time jobs and we're looking to hire some new people to help sell for us. I know you went to college for web design and we'll get you a login and you can help promote us on social media. Right now we'll pay you commission based on what your sales bring in. You'll get 30% of any purchases that result from clicks on your content." Being unaware of MLMs and needing another job I said sure. After my job ended at the store she called me and told me she was going to send me a link to their site, but right now they required all new employees to buy $50 worth of product/samples so they can test everything and truly appreciate what they're marketing. So I, being naïve thought 'oh ok sure.' I did it. I was making little to no sales of course, she was constantly breathing down my neck telling me I had to work harder, network more, and make sure my family knew how important it as they invest in this with me. There were other "employees" she'd introduced me to who had rooms of their house dedicated to these products. One woman literally posted about how her husband was threatening a divorce over the amount of product she was holding and how it was taking up the space they intended for a future nursery but she wanted to do this to build the future for their future baby. These were people she told me did 'in person marketing' for them and would buy product to resell. Something she wanted me to do but I never had an interest in doing. They regularly did 4am EST product drops on limited products with only like 25 available and she'd encourage us to log onto the website to purchase them for resale, gifts or ourselves because they were limited edition. After a few months I gave up and just blocked her and anyone else I was getting emails from with the company. It wasn't until a few years later I learned about MLMs and realized what I was a part of and that she and her daughter obviously didn't own the business they were just more mice in the wheel.
Did you work for Pink Zebra or something else though?
@@jamesgilbertjr4963 The store I worked for was not Pink Zebra, my boss at the store however was a Pink Zebra distributor and roped me into it unknowingly.

I thought it was ice cream 😭
I began watching your very first videos (again 😊) you have come a long way!!! Keep up the good job ❤❤❤ and AMAZING CONTENT
Thanks for talking about this one. I think it's pretty rarely heard of.
I like to wear noise cancelling headphones as well. I don’t like to go to crowded places without them anymore, because the noise is too much atm for me 🙈
