Ep.2: Alcohol in the MLM Lifestyle - A Cautionary Tale

Heather and Sara share their past experiences with multi-level marketing (MLM) businesses, uncovering the dark secret that drinking pervaded their ventures. From using alcohol to bond with team members to being part of a drinking-focused team, they talk candidly about how their 'drinking brains' painted the MLM model in a glamorous light.
