😂😂😂😂😂SO true!!!
LOL! As it should be.
HA 😂
the infertility one is so angering. As someone who can't have kids, the 'my body wont do the one thing it's supposed to do' bit is messed up. I and all the rest of us are more than one organ in our abdomen. 😡
Right? Idk about you but my body's primary function is to keep ME alive and doing what I want. Carrying kids is AT BEST a secondary function.
Came to the comments to see if I was the only one pissed off about that. I've heard that enough from men, definitely don't need to hear it from a woman, too. Grossed me out.
Oh yeah I hate hearing that. I know it’s what she feels like, but it’s still such a harmful narrative to push to other people and hold yourself to.
@@Tottosmile Exactly this 😂. I don't want children, so my body's purpose is to keep me alive. To whittle women down to their only objective as being baby making machines is too gross and alarming.
Exactly, we’re more than our uteruses. I’m childless by choice and been harassed about it for years. So that comment irked me like all of you guys here.
It's not the oil that reduces the bloating...it's the massaging of the stomach that makes you release the gas...
YES, I was taught this when I went to pelvic physical therapy and treating IBS 😅
Literally was going to comment that. I use to do this for my babies.
That’s what I was thinking when I saw it. I do that for babies at my daycare all the time.
I wasn’t going to buy, then the lady said “LITERALLY” five times and now I’m sold.
😂😂
😂😅😂😅😂
😂😂😂😂
As a woman with endometriosis the “my body isn’t doing the one thing it was made for” really upset me. My fellow infertile buddies, your body was meant to do so much more than that. It was meant to help you live and experience the world. And maybe it’s failed you in this aspect but you gotta love it for all the other things it’s done for you. The times you’ve felt the sun shine on your skin, and the warmth of the rats enveloped you. The times you’ve tasted your favorite meal. The joyous times that may seem so distant right now. Even when you are wracked with gut wrenching sobs, is it not painfully beautiful that your body can hold you together when it feels the very fiber of your being falls apart. Things will be hard, and you are allowed to hate that, but you will get through this.
This is beautiful! I was reading it thinking, “How can I show this person some love?” 💕 ❤💕❤️💕❤️💕 Thank you for this!
Beautifully stated! I was a little concerned with the thought of the “warmth of rats”, but I understand it must be a typo. 😅
Love this 100%.
And I, too, enjoy the warmth of the rats.
Giggling at the rat thing! My brain conjured up QUITE the image at that 😂❤
Edit to say: Also, yes. Spot on. I also felt very sad for her that she’s been made to feel like that’s all she’s worth 😢
Indeed
MLM'ers selling their stuff on Etsy is like people selling Walmart purchases at a vintage shop. 🥴
So infuriating. Etsy won’t do anything about it either. Maybe Etsy is becoming an mlm!
FACTS, it's a big reason why I don't want to sell my products on there!
@@JellicleKitten It’s not totally a waste, depending on what niche you’re selling in. But Etsy in a lot of cases is happy to suspend legitimate shops while doing nothing to stop shops that sell mlm products or cheap, mass-produced stuff that is supposedly against etsy policy.
Where do you sell your products than :) ?
Or like people selling vegetables from Safeway at farmers markets
Honestly, if the first woman gets bloated every time she eats, she really should go see a gastroenterologist or a GP because she has something going on, she might have an allergy or she might have celiac disease. Or gall bladder issues, or an ulcer or a host of other things. And anyone who has gall bladder issues, take care of it. You don't want to get a blocked duct. It's painful af!
This was exactly my thought too. I have friends who have celiac and the way she describes being bloated all the time is similar to how they describe their symptoms when they eat gluten.
I agree! Occasional bloating is one thing but every time you eat? That's not normal and should be checked out by a medical professional.
I have Crohn's and this is something I've experienced with my disease as well. Bloating after eating) drinking can be a sign of so many different things.
I used to think it was normal… nope! Turns out I have MCAS (Mast Cell Activation Syndrome), an allergic disorder. If my tummy is bloated now, I know my mast cells are going bonkers again!
There's also bile acid malabsorbption; I just learned about it recently from someone who was diagnosed with it after a misdiagnosis of IBS-C.
that's exactly what I was thinking. I've had severe IBS symptoms for years and can't imagine simply relying on a quick band aid solution for my chronic bloating instead of going to get tests done and see professionals to figure out what's going on, cause that's not normal in any way. girl is fooling herself
Uggggh! I will NOT take anyone seriously that misuses/over-uses "literally" or says "Im obsessed" or "gatekeeping". Its too goofy.
#4? my jaw was on the FLOOR! she’s early to a lash appointment but her kids don’t get to school on time? AND SHE ADMITS IT FOR AN AUDIENCE?! whew.
also places like CVS have bogo sales on vitamins and supplements all the time. i just restocked on my melatonin gummies!
I was driving and I thought that’s what she said but told myself I was misunderstanding. Is that what she said? And was proud somehow?
@@Mama_Bear524 i had to rewind and rewatch as well, i couldn’t believe it.
My mouth is agape at that. Ran to the comments bc excuse me ma'am?!! The lack of awareness must be a job requirement for huns.
If she's bloated after EVERY time she eats, she needs to reevaluate what she is eating. I got really really sick last year in the summer with bloating, stomach pain, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, seemingly EVERY time I ate I had some issue (sometimes to sleep I needed a heating pad on my stomach).
I ended up being diagnosed allergic to eggs, sensitive to lactose and gluten (not celiac or autoimmune related), and with an active SIBO infection. The SIBO needed 2 weeks of antibiotics (ya know, internally), and I had to follow a Low FODMAP diet for 6 weeks. The oil garbage won't do anything. Please talk to your GP if you're having gastro issues before resorting to slathering yourself with oils.
As someone with Celiac disease, this is accurate. If you are bloated and gassy and uncomfortable after EVERY meal, that's not normal and topical oils aren't going to do anything. Talk to your doctor, take some tests, and figure out what's really going on. Autoimmune diseases like celiac can be deadly over years of non-treatment.
Not defending the hun obviously but I bloat a lot and doctors have confirmed there is nothing causing it as y’all are stating. I definitely agree see a doctor, but also if you’re someone who bloats it’s not guaranteed you’ll get clear cut directions like these people. I just suffer in silence but just saying - bc I went in with the expectation I’d get answers just like y’all did.
@@hubabaloop Try a low fodmap diet for 6 weeks - then slowly add things back in - I guarantee you there is something you are eating that you could cut out and it would make a difference. Google Modify Health or Low Fodmap diet plans :) I hope you can find relief!
@@hubabaloop there's a lot of sensitivities that aren't really an allergy per se, just something your body isn't the best at processing. If it doesn't bug you all that much and doc says it's fine then it's fine. *shrug*
@@hubabaloop I have done literal decades of suffering in silence and then about a decade of hearing that "nothing is showing up as being wrong" from dozens of doctors. I did eventually find a few functional doctors who were very thorough, and I've finally made some progress with understanding my health. I just want to let you know that a second or third or 20th opinion might be worth it if your issues are greatly affecting your daily life. I didn't really understand that when I was first sick a kid, and just figured that if my one doctor said I was fine, maybe my agony was normal? I hope you're doing better now, and I wish you happiness and health! (And there are zero hopeful sales attached to that thought in the back of my mind. It's an MLM-free, genuine well-wish because I don't want others to deal with chronic issues if they have options!)
Daughter of someone who nearly died from an ulcer: if you're having regular discomfort post-meal, talk to your doctor.
Also, thank you for this content today, I'm being scammed by a non-MLMer surprisingly and I needed the distraction!
Exactly my thought. If you are bloating after every meal go to the doctor! Maybe an allergy or something worse
Turning infertility into an mlm recruitment makes me sick. I have PCOS, and my boyfriend and I have been trying to get pregnant for almost a year. I FINALLY had my FIRST positive test a month ago! And so far am 10 weeks pregnant with a healthy baby! But infertility has been such a hard thing for me. And to see it turned into a recruitment post makes me so upset.
Congrats! I’ve got PCOS as well, and I’m just the auntie now. 🤷🏼♀️ More than just a uterus.
I seriously dislike the narrative that having a baby is the “one thing that your body is meant to do”, because…ew, no. But I recognize that she feels like she was made to do this one thing and she can’t do it, and I feel for her.
Right?? That was so disgusting.
I guess I'm a useless sack of crap since I needed a hysterectomy at age 30 😂
@@tarajh I guess there are just millions of purposeless women prowling the Earth with empty wombs 🙄
@@tarajh We’re both losers, I chose not to have kids. It didn’t make sense for my life. Now I am 40 and in a great relationship and have a family full of dogs and a cat. It works for me. These people are clueless. I’m sorry if these tools made you feel a certain way. I know someone who had that too. These people have no idea what life is actually about.
@@tarajh no you are whatever you feel you are. Idk why everyone’s acting like how she feels about her body is how you’re supposed to feel or how she sees youz
That first story, you can do that without buying anything, Warm up some body oil, or moisturiser in your hand (wash your hands in warm water first, to get them nice and warm) massage it in small circle starting at the hip, up and over above the belly button, down to the hip and across to the other hip and repeat, it’ll help with bloating and for IBS-er loosen your clothes, bra, top, pants, sip warm water, ugh putting oil in your belly bottom, it’s trying to make it seem like it’ll reach your gut or something 🙈
My PT taught me that massage. It does really help you not feel like you're going to explode. And sadly, many people do believe your navel absorbs things.
All I could think when watching that was, "NEWSFLASH - RUBBING YOUR BELLY AFTER A BIG MEAL FEELS GOOD!"
Nice to know there is an efficient way to do it!
Yep it’s a thing they do in TCM as well (my uncle is a licensed doctor in both western and eastern medicine, I won’t doxx his info but he works at one of the biggest hospitals in shanghai) and honestly all he recommends is a type of oil that smells good or doesn’t smell so it doesn’t further upset your stomach. You don’t even need oil at all sometimes. I often get gas in my stomach, and honestly it works to offer a little bit of relief, and it’s free. And if it doesn’t work, then you don’t need to do it, no money or MLM involved.
Putting oil on your skin will dehydrate your skin and dry it out. Do not put oil on your skin
@@alliu6562Yeah the oil is really just to help the hands slide! It could be any oil ❤
With “friends” like Elizabeth, who callously push you to working on your “business” while you are clearly suffering from depression, an identity struggle, and the shame of infertility, who needs enemies?
Also when she says that it doesn’t matter whether you sell something or nothing at all, that’s obviously not the case because if it didn’t matter whether she sold nothing, her friend wouldn’t be pushing her to really push her business 🤦🏼♀️
@@DreadKittenOZ very true! But I guess it really doesn’t matter because recruitment is what makes the business truly lucrative.
Great point!
I was just flabbergasted to hear that that woman was early for her LASH appointments but getting her kids to school early doesn’t rank up on the “importance ladder” quite as high as her LASHES do!!!! WHAAAA???? 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️
mlm huns in general seemed to have skewed priorities and most if it centers around themselves. Lash appointment is important to HER, her kids education? Eh that's a "them" thing.
The "Pour Into Us" bit is probably showing up so much because so many MLMs spread through churches; that kind of language is something you see about "pouring in" faith or "the spirit." It's weird to see it co-opted for MLMs, and is DOES SOUND ICKY.
Plus how they always talk about “seasons”
For that first person, just rubbing her stomach might have been a self soothing technique that would help the pain a bit, and it also might have helped move things around to push the gas along so there wasnt as much pressure. 100% not the oils lol, but she might have felt better for real 😅
It definitely seems like that kind of motion with a rollerball could help with that, but yeah, an old, dried up roll-on deodorant would probably do the trick.
This is one of the reasons I'm hesitant to buy from Etsy these days 😔 I bought this dress not too long ago that was "handmade", but when i got it, there was a "made in China" tag on it. This person clearly bought stuff from shien or something and then upcharged. Sucks that it's getting so hard to support small makers
Can you report it to Etsy? I don't think they'd like this. I love Etsy and would hate to find that most of the things I buy are made in China, esp. since I always try to double check where an item is made to avoid buying made in China. Sometimes I've had to email the seller and ask point blank: WHERE was the item made??
@@timriehl1500 I did, but it doesn't really do anything because it's one customer's word against the shop owners. I think it's like TikTok and MLM content... technically it's not allowed, but actually getting them to take action against it is unlikely. I started to email, like you said, and I'm more selective which shop i buy from now, but it's just disheartening to see cuz it takes business away from real makers
Why should it be one world agamist the other? You have hard proof! - the tag
@@kowaljanowski They don't give you that much of a chance (at least not that I'm aware). You can click to file a report from a drop-down menu with a section to write down what the problem is. Then you hope they handle it cuz you can't contact them about it to to talk to anyone. I guess the way it works is, if a bunch of ppl file with the same complaint then they investigate? But no one reaches out to you for a follow-up
Etsy is such a mixed bag nowadays. I used to sell cloth diapers. I was an admin of a couple big groups on Facebook back in the day, and I was all about that cloth diaper life. I could spot a made in China diaper from a mile away, and now when I searched on Etsy for cloth diapers, about 85% of them were the cheap ones from China. It was so disappointing.
I did find a couple good sellers though!
I struggled with fertility for few years, and I had a coworker that sold oils, she insisted that rubbing a blend on my stomach would cure my infertility. I couldn’t believe she actually thought I could externally apply an oil for an internal issue.
To be fair (what little fairness can be granted), there are topical medicines that deal with internal issues. Sometimes testosterone replacement therapy is administered topically for example. It works fine. But not in one minute.
@@reidleblanc3140 Or Arnica for muscle aches and pains
So they do have a topical progesterone that helps to level out progesterone levels in women and there are a lot of stories of ladies who have had trouble with infertility who after using this have been able to conceive. A friend of mine has this story. HOWEVER, there are also those who don’t have this experience at all lol. And therein lies the hook and the problem with YL as an MLM. There’s enough truth/testimonials to pull you in yet not enough medical degrees to go around for all the distributors who all of a sudden are prescribing oils they know nothing about to people they don’t know.
Other examples are magnesium and fentanyl.
@@reidleblanc3140that’s something else completely…
I LOVE when I see ads for stuff/companies I can't stand. Feed my hatred. Feed my favorite creators. Starve the problematic companies. Give me mooore 😂
Did anyone else catch her "I'm never early, well, unless it's like a lash appointment."? She puts a LASH APPOINTMENT before getting her kids to school on time!! Now, I think that some school districts get their knickers in a twist about attendance, but I think it's people like this that ruin it for the rest of us.
As someone who has been struggling with infertility for over two years now, who has taken dozens of pregnancy tests, it makes me so upset that these MLM huns prey upon vulnerable people like myself. I've been to the doctor, had several tests done, etc. and we're still working on figuring out what's happening. But sometimes I see like a supplement online and I'm like, "Will it hurt to try that? It's probably a scam but what if it works?" Thankfully, I steer clear of them all but jeeze -- I can see how people who want so desperately to become pregnant might try anything.
Have your partner done tests too? I know it might sound pretentious if yes, but even nowadays every now and again appear a couple or other that doesn't even think about the guy's side, so it's a genuine question.
@@debymello4756 He has done some but is actually at the doctor as we speak to be assigned more tests! I also have to go back next month for more. It's a process but we'll get there someday. 🥰
@@the_Sarahnator good luck for both of you from an internet stranger :D
@@debymello4756 thank you!!!! 💚
We struggled for two years as well, had two miscarriages during that time. Our rainbow baby is seven months old and so happy and healthy and sweet. I didn't trust many people to talk about it while it was happening, if anyone tried to MLM style nonsense I would have been furious.
As someone who has been there, I hope you get your rainbow!
Did the first girl really put period pain in the same box as digestive pain? Everything else is well commented on but this bothered me too
Yeah, that was random.
Hannah - when you get back from maternity leave - consider making a new video series. Reviewing MLM Ads. The one's that accompany your videos are just the best 👌!
Thank you for calling out “pouring into me/us/you.” BARF! It makes me nauseated every time someone says it!
I was told to put peppermint on my abdomen once or twice when I was growing up with period cramps. The only thing it did was sensitize the skin over my abdomen, which distracted me from the pain of the cramp, but obviously did nothing for it. Ibuprofen and heating pad for life.
When I was deep in the throes of infertility, if I’d gotten a text like that from a friend, that would’ve been a friendship ending experience, not an inspiration to deep dive into my MLM
I was thinking that. I haven’t had infertility issues (so sorry you have, it’s not fair you’ve had to struggle) but omg that pissed ME off. I was thinking if that was me I’d be mad not comforted.
@@Mama_Bear524 thanks. It was a three year struggle but now I have the most awesome 8 month old so it was all worth it in the end.
I joined MLMs during my infertility time +4 years ttc before my lucky day came. I remember feeling SO alone and thinking joining something like this would fulfill me. It did momentarily, but then it just became an additional stress on my life. Drama I didn't ask for, pressure to sell and recruit. It made things even worse and left me feeling even more alone than I did, before.
But... were her kids early?
Also: Can we STOP filming and driving??
This needs to be cracked down on. Too many people do this!!
Sleep spray sounds like a spy gadget to render your enemies unconscious
That would be so cool.
Underrated comment
😂
Hey Hannah! Regarding the "can't control what ads play on my videos" thing- I've heard other creators mention that you can actually ban specific ads by their URL (but I 100% agree with you that it's best to let their ad $ get wasted on your video)
I didn’t know that! Still gonna let the MLM ads run though 🤣
@@HannahAlonzo Do you get more if we let a 30 second ad run all the way through vs hitting "skip ad" when the skip ad option appears?
Curious. Cause I usually hit "skip" when it appears. However I'll let them run all the way through if I know you'll get more that way
@@HSSG7 I think they get more when you let the ad run. Not 100% on that, though!
I pay for RUclips premium, so I don't get ads at all. I'm almost disappointed.
My favourite hack is I tell google that my ad preferences are things I would never buy (and also aren’t upsetting). So I get ads for fancy cars, carpentry, fishing (pretty nature shots). It’s nice
For fail #4 -
"I'm almost never early to anything - a lash appointment, sure, but not my kids getting to school."
I understand chaperoning kids to school isn't fun, but like... Openly admitting your eyelashes are more important to you than your kids getting to school is definitely a bold move.
The 40 week bodybuilding regimen was a success, Congratulations 🎉
Literally got a beach boss ad telling me how to grow my network marketing business during this video. Ope
"The one thing my body is supposed to do" wow. I hate that. The one thing my body is meant to do is house me. No one else.
Girl you don’t have to roll oils on you, just fart 😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂
A bottle of Sprite works on my gas. Or a good fart. 😊😊😊😂😂😂
The first thing I thought was that she must have farted so loudly. The only thing the oils did was camouflage the stink of the gas 😂
I know your comment is a year old but I have to say i just died reading this 😂😂😂😂 truth!
MLM ads on anti MLM videos is the greatest irony 😂
Things about melatonin:
Works best generally if you use a lower dose, and used only temporarily each time 😊
Yes. Even the melatonin bottles say that. It’s not to be used regularly
Also the “ I’m not better than you lady” frankly acted high so the only message I got was that sleep spray makes you act like her ….. yeah hard no
You should discuss that MLM's really target women. Especially stay at home moms! I've been seeing a trend with that in your vieos, and just what I've seen in my own life.
Oh, and yes, im getting loads of MLM ads on your videos and i mever did before watching you and it's only when i watch you. Ohhhhh, the irony. 😂😂😂
Watching this while I wait for my $2/month sublingual melatonin to dissolve. It’s probably stronger than that spay, too. Also, the fact that was driving while recording terrified me.
And sounding so out of it!
I took it upon myself to try the Digize for bloating „hack.“ I’m super lactose intolerant, so one ice cream sandwich and an oily belly button later… absolutely nothing happened. Who would’ve guessed! I’m sure the hun would just say that I used it wrong. Guess I have to look forward to a spicy bathroom trip later. All for the sake of experimentation, I suppose.
Disclaimer: the Digize oil was a gift from my mom from several years ago, I would not personally support YL
The first story sounds like the action of rubbing her stomach caused her to fart hence relieving her of her bloating 🤷🏻♀️
🐇💨
Yup! 😂
About the first story - oils for stomach issues/ cramps: Maybe the rubbing it in/ massaging your belly helps to move air along? If it is supposed to be for crampy, maybe it's warming? That's the only two ways I can see this work. Of course, you don't need expensive oils to massage or warm your belly.
Lol exactly. There's an official colon massage you can do that really eases the bloat by making you fart.
I have a digestive issue and massaging the abdomen helps with gas dissipation. No oil needed
The YL folks claim that if you rub clockwise, it speeds things up; counterclockwise slows things down. thoughts?
Maybe it has to do with pressure and the position of stomach/other digestive organs? Idk. But maybe that's why they think it works. Because using the oil they are sort of massaging the stomach etc?
Hannah, you're so adorable XD "I don't think our personalities would mesh well." What a great line.
I have SIBO and struggled with stomach distention (what the hun in video #1 describes) for years. The distention would cause nausea, I couldn't eat and became concerningly underweight. I know what it's like to be sick to the point of desperation, and I hate to think her tactic might've worked on me when I was at my most vulnerable.
I got a Q Sciences flyer removed from my university cafeteria the other day. they had literally just tacked it up on a random wall fml
Opening ad before starting the video - beach boss influencers, a commercial for training on how to promote your MLM without "harassing your friends in DM's" 🤣
POV of the first hun's friend/date: after dinner, she goes to the restroom, takes forever and comes back stinking of patchouli and with probably weird stains on her shirt 😂 not sus at all
there's another youtuber i follow who has that exact logic with the advertisements on their videos and is very pleased about wasting shitty companies'/grifters ad money on people who won't ever buy the product
My husband does take great pride in being the first parent at drop off every morning. 😂
I have Pyloric spasms (the muscle controlling the valve into my stomach spasm). When I was in highschool my friends mom sold Doterra and she gave me a cotton ball with several drops of dill oil and told me to rub it over the area.
It helped. The undiluted oil caused a (strong) warming sensation and the motion of rubbing the area helped. I went to my local health store the next day to buy a bottle (it luckily never occured to me to ask about buying it from my friends mom and she never tried to sell it to me, though she did sell to other friends parents).
Now I associate the scent of Dill with relief. So now I have a properly diluted mix of dill, lavender, and jasmine I diffuse when the pain gets bad. Normally just the scent helps calm them, but applied topically if it's really baf.
I still wonder how much of it is placebo.
The belly rub probably eased the spasm response. I do an esophageal rub that actually calms down GERD. No oils required. Dill oil sounds pretty yummy smelling, though! That said, it sounds like you now do have a placebo effect happening.
Even prescription medication have a large part placebo effect. Placebo is great! It means you feel better without the need of even more treatment with potentially nasty side effects
The illegal flowery roller ball IS cute at least haha
Love learning how the algorithm is actually screwing with MLMs by attaching ads to videos in direct opposition to them.
Thank you so much Hannah for having these ready for us! I hope you and your family are healing and sleeping and doing well in general! I'm so glad you are spending time with your baby, the early days are irreplaceable! Take as long as you need, I'm sure I speak for a lot of your audience when I say that we will be here waiting for you! (And rewatching your anti-MLM playlists in the meantime)
I will never forget when I took melatonin for the first time in years a few years ago, and it gave me the worst nightmares. Since I'm an insomniac and sleep terribly well I thought maybe I was just exhausted, but I took it again and the same thing happened. I was so heart broken, especially since I have been trying to get off trazadone.
Melatonin is completely linked to nightmares and night terrors, especially if you’re already prone to them. I have gotten terrible ones from taking melatonin too. I’m sorry you’ve had to experience that!
@@eZepernick I had no idea at the time that that was a symptom, as no one else I know gets them! Happy and sad t know I'm not the only one. I'm sorry you have to go through it as well!
I have had nightmares when I take it as well! I started to take magnesium glycinate, which relaxes me. It doesn’t put me to sleep, but i feel it has helped me sleep through the night without waking up. Of course not advice for your specific situation but it does work quite well for me.
"It's very vulnerable thing to admit that your body isn't doing the one thing it was made to do"
Hmmmmmm mmMMmmMmm speak for yourself
It's so funny that you (and other anti-mlm) creators have to continuously explain the ads thing... I didn't realize there were so many people who watch RUclips but still don't understand how ads work 🤷🏻♀️
I googled "drop shipping" because I didn't really understand what it was. I now get drop ship coaching ads with every video I watch. I also get Shapermint, Teema Towels, and The Farmer's Dog dog food 🤣 I probably will order a towel at some point, I'm on the fence about the wireless bra, and I have a cat. But weirdly, no more MLM related ads (unless the drop ship stuff is MLM).
Not only do they basically pay you, you make more than a lot of people in mlms
I’ve never really had any interest or interaction with MLMs (despite being aware that they are scams for almost a decade), and I’m not sure how I found this channel a few weeks ago, but ever since I did I’ve been inundated with ads for MLMs and other sketchy “business opportunities” haha
Thank you for caring for us during your maternity leave ❤
Hi Hannah! I've binged so many of your videos now. I usually go for harsh and snappy people, but I feel like your graciousness and calm is something so needed in my life right now and it feels like it comes so naturally from you. This might be my most recent time catching up with you (14 hours behind, still!) and I'm happy to see more of your content.
If she really bloats like that after every meal, she should change her diet, not rub oil on her 🤦🏻♀️
I see MLM oils on Etsy , occasionally I see body care made with MLM oils too. Report report report.
Which is nuts. I get asked if my soap is made with YL or doTERRA oils and I have to stifle a scoff with my no. Those oils are crazy expensive, no better quality than much cheaper options available in bulk, and the amount needed depending on the product you're making is either so little or much more than what you can make selling it at regular prices. My basic batch of soap makes 10 bars, depending on the fragrance I'm using and it's safe usage rates, I need between 1 and 2 oz. A bottle of those oils is typically .33 oz, I minimum need 3 bottles 😓 nope, nah, nuh uh.
I just saw the TikTok essential oil rollers and these people are putting it under their eyes 💀
I've tried to warn my best friends mom about MLMs. She has Monat products and TONS of YL oils. She was just telling me about the one for digestive issues the other day.
One thing I will say here: melatonin is not available over the counter in a lot of countries. In Australia for example is prescription only
My mother still thinks MLMs are valid “businesses”. They’re only legally allowed because they sell a service or product. If they didn’t, they wouldn’t exist.
That roller thing only works because massaging the tummy gets the air moving and it finds its way out 🙈
What relieves or aliviates the bloating is Not the oil, it's the massage on ur belly! 😂 Theres No need to buy a super expensive oil
i will never understand why people put in SO MUCH EFFORT to scam when, honestly, it can take less effort to make or source quality products and do it honestly.... i mean, i UNDERSTAND mlm stuff it's just like, you have to do SO MUCH WORK when you could be doing a lot of the same things yourself and not be involved in an mlm
My question to the first Atilla The Hun is why aren't you trying to figure out why you're always bloated and solve the problem rather than treat the after effects? I don't get bloated every time I eat. You should seriously look into that Hun.
That's right, Hannah! There is always a catch!
You can rub your belly and massage the gas out. Gas X works better, but a massage does help in a pinch by getting the gas to move. No oils required unless you just want to.
I love when MLM ads pop up under anti-mlm videos 😂 I mostly see it on you and CC Suarez
Putting oil on your tummy to make bloating go away makes just as much sense at poking a hole in your tummy to release the air.
isn't gatekeeping a term used when you are baring certain people from belonging to a group? Like in art if someone says "Digital artists aren't Real artists" or "Real fans of X know Y (extensive, detailed information)"
Thank you! Yes, she completely misused that term. It’s often excluding already-marginalized people from certain spaces based on arbitrary criteria. I work in the publishing industry, so it’s a term I hear a LOT
Yes!! She doesn’t know what that means and completely misused it
So I know I’m about to comment on a video that is easily a year old, but the fertility segment infuriated me. I went through 5 years of treatment before having our little boy and I’ll be damned if I can count on my fingers and toes how many times some said “well did you try this..” or “I heard…” or pitched me a powder or a juice or an oil or a diet. My cousin even tried to pitch me CBD oil while I was in the middle of IVF. I feel for her, clearly, but that’s not the way to do things. Thank you, Hannah 💗
I wonder if that Etsy roller business is her trying to deal with the result of inventory loading.
I have huge amounts of sympathy for women struggling with infertility (my best friend went through IVF three times and never successfully carried to term), but it is so cringe to me when women say things like "my body won't do the one thing it's designed to do." No, hun, the only thing your body is designed to do is exist in an oxygen atmosphere. Having children is fine for those who want them, but it is not nature's grand demand on our very existence as uterus bearers.
Lol on the bonus picture! While watching this video I got an ad for Beach Boss Influencers! Love to see their ad buy supporting an anti-mlm creator!
As someone with many food sensitivities and digestive issues, I gotta inject that if you are that bloated after a normal meal, you probably either ate too much, have a food insensitivity, or a serious Illness. Gas x, deep breathing, light exercise, massaging your stoMach, and taking a probiotic are all cheap ways to hel you get over that occasional bloat.
Bloating can be seriously uncomfortable and may even be a sign of something serious. Go to a doctor please if this happens often.
Edit: peppermint, ginger, or fennel tea is great. I remember someone told me to ingest peppermint oil to help with digestion. Don’t do the latter please
The teas are good - but they are not the oil and suppose to be ingested.
I don't get MLM ads BUT I do often get MLM vids posted by huns in my recommended because of all the anti MLM stuff I watch !
I always watch at least 30 seconds of your ads. And I love it when they are pro-MLM content LOL
I’m like 7 or 8 weeks pregnant and bloated all the time. Watching that first video boils my blood 😂 how dare she sell snake oil and pretend it’ll give instant relief. Pisses me off!
OMG my neighbour swears about that tummy oil. I tired it because she convinced me to try it. I haven’t feel anything different. But she gave me an oil to use with the essential oil.
I also had another girl selling me anti-stress young living roller oils during covid lockdown. I had no idea yet about the rabbit hole of YL so I purchased just to support her as I knew she didn’t make any money and she has a child. Later that same neighbour told me that was literally illegal. I never saw her selling those roller oils again, probably some other hun told her.
I found your channel only 2 days ago and have already watched 10/15 videos.... the structure of your videos, research capability and articulation is expert and your videos are absolutely brilliant 👏 ❤
I just recently went up to stay with my cousin, and in her bathroom, I found a doterra branded box FULL of oils. It looks like one of those collector boxes. She even had so many, they didn't fit into the container. Thankfully, I don't think she sells them, or is a part of the MLM, but I was kind of amazed she had them, given we live in Australia, where MLMs aren't so prevalent.
I've also been seeing those RUclips shorts with people who are using the phrases of 'network marketing' and being really vague about what it is they're trying to promote. I always report them now, and ask that the algorithm doesn't recommend them to me (however effective that is).
As always, a lovely video. Thanks for sharing. I hope you have a wonderful day.
that first one ! i stitched it and immediately called her out
You are GLOWING in this video , pregnancy was so good to you ❤
And that's the difference between her and me, bloating after eating clues me in to what I'm eating and what my body is telling me. Not continuing on in the insanity of doing the same thing and carrying a rollerball with me in preparation of it happening again 🙄
Looking at that Young Living list of oils, so many of them were opened and partially used.
Can’t wait to watch this. Getting the notification made my whole day 💕 hope you’re healing well!
I play these videos a lot and my boyfriend the other day pointed out a car with an MLM sticker on it😂
My pharmacist recommended GasX.
15:22 "timing isn't everything, but there's no denying it is an edge in this industry" quiet-part-out-loud moment.
How does infertility have a anything to do with beauty counter?! What a weird flex.
