    What’s wild to me is, IF you had 88k to spend, then you’ve obviously “made it” in your life and don’t need anyone else trying to tell you how to do it! 🤦🏻‍♀️🤣

They need to take all the courses the guru offers otherwise they will never attain their goals. It's very sad how much vulnerable people can become and fall for these things.

    I payed her not because its was done for me, but because i believed and trusted her. I use to see her as a big sister advice.
    She claimed that she had the blueprint, and that she was the
    “embodiment “ for whatever she was selling.
    This is what happens when we trust someone, we listen to them, we buy from them, we support them .
    At some points I felt like, “Dang, I probably need this new course.” Then I would tell myself, “Girl, you haven’t even manifested from the previous course that was sold to you.”
    It felt like a non-stop spiral of needing to buy the next thing because it's part of the "healing."
    Now that all her lies are being exposed i realize the manipulation, and it really was shocking!
    Im a woman who said i wanted to break generational trauma.
    I didn’t go to a therapist for the fear of trust. Yet i got scammed.
    I take full responsibility, lesson learned. But shame on mina!

      Not being rude at all, so please don’t take it that way! But, I am the oldest of 3 and I never required payment to give advice to my siblings. That would be my first red flag. Second, are you an only child or didn’t have a strong family growing up? To me, you were searching for someone to bond to like you would a close family member. Maybe you didn’t ever get that opportunity so you thought “well maybe I can buy that connection and role model”. Then as you went along, you realized what you thought you were “buying” was actually superficial and a fallacy. You’ll never connect or trust someone through a screen like you would in real life or with family. I’m glad you’ve grown and found your way!

      @@Saddles_N_Sauvignon Thank you for respectfully questioning me. Yes, I’m the oldest of three kids. No, I didn’t grow up with a strong family foundation. There was a lot of trauma; I was basically the parent, and I was really in my masculine energy. So, when I discovered her, she talked a lot about leaning back, making it easy, and feminine energy, breaking the curse, etc. And I agree, real friends exist in real life. Also, she would say paying for her advice is a monetary exchange. But when there’s lies, it’s not a fair exchange.

    Another RUclipsr channel named LisaLisaD just caused a huge backlash on her channel last week when she made her Huge Announcement. She had just shown several videos of herself buying three Chanel bags at a time (three bought in a shopping spree, on two separate occassions, for a total of at least six Chanel bags in one month) on top of all the luxury bags she already has and she continues to buy more. Then she made her Huge Announcement that she was starting a Patreon subscription at $25 per month for women who were ready to "have a seat at her table" to hear her personal life advice. There are over 2,000 comments on her Huge Announcement video in response, mostly from long term subscribers, expressing how badly this Huge Announcement was received. At least 2000 people immediately unsubbed. Women like that are literally a bad influence. They shouldn't be allowed to solicit money directly from subscribers. It is a scam. They are grifters.

    I hope girls don’t automatically trust someone buying them a car. I have a scary story about this. My moms are lesbian so their marriage wasn’t legal, one bought the other a car technically and when they broke up took both cars and financially ruined my other mom, basically took advantage of homophobic laws at the time. She also rented my first car for me brand new so in a year i had no car, it also had a few scratches because i was a child learning to drive and really had no business driving a brand new leased car. She tried to get me to pay for it which i couldn’t afford, luckily i wasn’t liable. Years later my boyfriend offered to get me a car but i turned it down because although i trust him it’s just nit smart in case we broke up. I have a used car that is 100% paid off and is reliable that only cost $5k. I would NEVER trade this paid off car in my name for a nicer one in someone else’s name, or one in my name that someone else is making payments on that i cant afford. It is a massive risk and you could end up without a car or on the hook for expensive payments if you aren’t careful.

    I have unfortunately been recommended content from this “creator.” In one of the reels I’ve seen, she talked about how it is her “right” as a wife to spend more money than her husband makes, because, as she said, “if he doesn’t spend money on his wife, he’ll spend it on another woman,” implying that all men cheat. Bankrupt your husband to prevent him from cheating on you. Great advice!
    With that said, the saddest part is her basically telling women that their only asset is their looks. "Manifest being skinnier, manifest being prettier, etc." It’s like the “alpha males” telling men to just make money and everything follows from there. But money and appearance are nothing without character and personality.

      She never said to spend more money than he earns, she said don't live in scarcity mode thinking all the saved cash will give you a good life several years down the line. Use his money to create a good life for yourself and your family because living poorly would signal to him that he can treat you poorly and you'll still stay, he may lose respect for you and then only spend on women who have standards, those women won't stick around if he treats them poorly. Many men do leave women who stuck by them through thick and thin for younger women when they get money. This is very common. You simply can't be naive about this.

Also the whole meditation was just another level of narcissism that is utterly disgusting.

    Without knowing her, I think she sells ideas to believe in. For by example people with low selfworth and women who are single she gives them hope that they will find their dreampartner and that they have value. However, the things she tells have nothing practical in them and there is nothing behind it. I mean, realistically if you want to move forward in life, work on your skills. You need to have something of value to offer to someone else. What I can see, she just gives ideas to believe in: believe that you are .... and you become it, without backing it up. And honestly no one is the most beautiful, because beauty is subjective, and by believing you are rich you don't get rich, because if your family isn't rich you need to work for it. I mean, she got rich because of selling things, not by believing that she was rich.. In the end I think that by example self worth comes from knowing who you and loving yourself for you, not by being more beautiful than others and by essentialy comparing yourself. I don't need to be the most beautiful, I like myself for me with all my flaws and talents and I try to be the best that I can with what I have. I think that should be a message people need to get more often.

    So, I used to work in book publishing. In some genres, like YA & Romance, it is totally normal to write 4 novels in one year. A lot of them are Novella length, so about 35-50k words. Harlequin Romance authors are known for doing so and often midlist authors in these genres HAVE to do 2-5 novels or novellas a year.
    As well, in these genres in Indie publishing it is also common and called rapid release. Keep in mind these are about 150-250 pages in print.
    It only seems odd if you're someone who reads non-romance genres as those are less likely to come out so often. Romance writers are some of the hardest working authors in the publishing game and when traditionally publishing they're often expected to churn out content to maintain their relationship with publishers. Like an unspoken contract as dropping off can cause you to lose your next book deal and lose your career.
    It is one of the things that is gatekept until you enter the business.

    That whole prayer and meditation routine reeks of false prophecy tbh. The Bible says teachers that lead others astray will be judged more harshly than anyone in God's eyes. That lady had better rethink her attitude!

    I used to watch Mina back when I was seeking out femininity content but stopped after tuning out all that stuff and the "gurus" talking about it. She seemed earnest and personable, sad to see what she devolved into.

    The way she talks about being from 2 different cultures as if she's special and the 1st person to immigrate here to the US 😂
