I hope your season is filled with the embodiment of HOLIDAY MAGIC, as we count down to 2022!Jessica and I have been trying to get together ever since our followers couldn't stop tagging us in each others videos to get our attention. IT WORKED YOU GUYS!!! Jess makes some of the funniest, brutally honest ExHun content on social media that I have ever seen. She is unapologetically herself, owns her mistakes and uses them to educate for good. In our chat we discuss the internal struggle of being "at the top" of the pyramid, what it REALLY looks like as you climb the pyramid, and what it REALLY takes to stay there. It might look like being in the 1% is worth all the time and effort, but Jessica's deep inside look at her time in ItWorks! paints quite the opposite picture.Show NotesJessica's YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCiOp5s0qbquFOrKRpIpCwvAJessica's TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@thejessicahicksonJessica's Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/thejessicahickson/Love Has Won - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Love_Has_WonYOU CAN'T SCAM AN EX-SCAMMER, HUN!!
