Ready for ranty Sarah - cause this episode we’re heading into the BS arena of the passive business crowd and in particular those people selling affiliate, or multi-level marketing (MLM), schemes, and why they're not the “passive income” business model you’ve been promised.


If you’ve ever been tempted by “the dream” you know the one: flexible work-from-home hours, big commission checks, and Insta-worthy freedom vibes this one is for you. Because here's the deal: MLMs and affiliate models aren’t businesses. They’re commission-only sales roles… and often, they're unpaid labor in disguise.


🔥 Inside this episode:


  • Why owning your business (and your decisions) is a FAR safer option.

  • The cold, hard numbers:  approximately 85% of people in MLMs earn under $1K a year

  • The hidden cost of “selling the dream” (when you’re not living it yourself)

  • Why these models suck your time, energy, and trust without giving you real control

    • The better alternatives: legit business ideas you can build (and own!) without sacrificing your sanity


    You’ll also get a sneak peek into our annual Beyond Retreat 3-day immersive experience designed to help you cut through the noise, rewrite the stories holding you back, and finally take that big step beyond the edge you've been circling.


    Let me say this loud and clear: If you already have a business, your time is better spent fixing your current model. If you don’t have one yet? Let’s build you something you actually own something that can’t be taken away with a boardroom pen stroke.


    You deserve a business that’s present AND profitable. Not a hustle that leaves you chasing people in your inbox at 2 a.m. ✖

    ✔ You’re tired of being sold hype over substance
