116. Inside the Cult of Multi-Level Marketing with Emily Lynn Paulson

If you’ve ever found yourself on the other side of a Facebook message asking if you “keep your business options open,” we hate to break it to you, but you were the target of an MLM pitch. In today’s episode, we’re talking about the inner workings of multi-level marketing and the shady tactics they use to draw and keep people in.  Our guest, Emily Lynn Paulson, author of “Highlight Real: Finding Honesty and Recovery Beyond the Filtered Life and Hey Hun: Sales, Sisterhood, Supremacy, and the Other Lies Behind Multilevel Marketing,” joins us to talk about her time spent as a top MLM leader, and the reasons behind her decision to quit even after experiencing massive success.
