How MLMs Hurt Women’s Mental Health

from The Anxious Achiever · host Morra Aarons-Mele

Multi-level marketing businesses, or MLMs, offer people - often women who don’t work outside the home - the chance to be entrepreneurs, face new challenges, and grow their social circles. The reality is a situation that can prey on mental health issues, the emotional strain and isolation of motherhood, and even trigger substance abuse concerns. Sobriety coach, author, and former MLM worker Emily Paulson shares the story of how she came to MLM, the career she hoped she’d have, how stuck she felt, and how she’s now working to help others.  Learn more: https://www.amazon.com/Hey-Hun-Sisterhood-Supremacy-Multilevel/dp/1955905258 https://themighty.com/topic/mental-health/mlms-exploit-mental-health-conditions-chronic-illness-disability/ https://www.scarymommy.com/mlm-selling-affects-womens-mental-health
