If she's making her announcement "with a broken heart", why is she smiling?

[MaguireJulie]

God done called all the handbags home 😂😂😂

Julie, look up the "conservative woman baby voice." Conservative right wing Christian women tend to put on this "baby" voice to infantilize themselves it's WEIRD

[abbysharp]

her intonation sounds like a bridesmaid reading a poorly written wedding speech lmao

[NiktheBooksmith]

They're dropping like flies.
All together now,

[lizsahu]

Wow her intonation is like a drunk Sunday School Teacher 👀

I just bought a Thirty One bag at Goodwill for $3 in like new condition. Never heard of the company before, decided to google them & just found your video. Wow!!

"I didn't gain a single dollar." Two seconds later... "I was able to receive a salary." Manipulation is the name of the game, and MLMs eat their own in Q4.

[Randoplants]

if costs were eating away too much at profits, the leadership had to know that long before they announced the closure. That’s not what loving business owners who care do to people they do business with.

I worked for this company at their warehouse in Flower Mound, TX as a manager for a few years before I left in 2021. Not involved in sales but the people who worked in the warehouse were good people who worked hard. We didn’t get much of the holy roller stuff. There was a massive amount of years old inventory, collecting dust, that had to be destroyed while I was there. Most of it was not accounted for until we started documenting the stuff we were shredding.

"There is no soul behind this woman's eyes." Oh god, I died XD

Julie, been following you since Hannah Alonzo mentioned your name and your content is great! Love your personality and how you are speaking up about MLMs, I think this is very helpful and necessary! Congratulations about your hard work, I appreciate it ❤

[spokenwordpoetries]

"You did the best you knew how..." That is so condescending to the participants and basically blaming them for not being enough. That's terrible.

[ReturnToSenderz]

Has anyone else had to watch corporate training videos from 20-30 years ago? That’s what this MLM owner is giving, with a side of passive aggressive hostility.

I spent a very short time in anEvangelical environment when I was in high school. Everything about this announcement is screaming Christian fundamentalism to me.
Now, there are some that are just extremely conservative, but there are also sects that are extremely culty. From the look on her face, to her "keep sweet" voice, to the phrases she uses, such as season, court, family; to the fact that this is based off of Proverbs 31, I do believe that she is part of a very cult like group of Christian fundamentalism, and has used this company to extend that reach.

[RescueNinjaKris]

Another one bites the dust!!! WTH??? There is something going on in the MLM world! I cannot believe they are falling one by one!

[Randoplants]

Since so many of these places are announcing closure starting Dec. 1st, I’m worried a bunch more are just going to shut their doors that day with no prior announcement.

[sulijoo]

MLMs are a legitimate business in the same way Jim Jones was only selling a herbal sleep remedy.

[jill_the_organized_hoarder]

Weirdest closing announcement EVER! This woman is WAY too cheerful. WTH?!?!

[shannonplimmer]

It feels oddly poetic that 31 gifts will come to an end on the 31st 😂
