Hi 🙂you just made me blush. 🙏🏼One thing to note: TBP downplays medical procedures she gets because they are non surgical. Over a year ago TBP mentioned getting a fancy facial–the medical procedure she was gifted- Sofwave- is not a facial. Sofwave is laser mixed with intense ultrasound- technology that had to get FDA approval. It’s not a facial at all. I also had Sofwave, I was told it takes a long time to see the difference. When the treatment finally took, the difference on my jawline and jowels is pretty amazing. I had invasive jawline tightening surgery in 2019 (EmbraceRF) and Sofwave out performed EmbraceRF! TBP always pushes how “real” she is. I think that’s part of what can make her followers depressed. My estimate is that TBP has had equal if not more non-evasive medical procedures and injections than I have. I’ve had a lot. *This isn’t a promotion for Sofwave. It’s great procedure but it’s expensive and requires yearly maintenance. That’s why I’m saving for a facelift. Note: *I’d trade all the treatments in the world for kids and a partner. TBH it’s kinda sad why I still care about this stuff. I have no retirement plan and basically started over in 2023. I need to make up time. In my 30’s I was straight up vain and trying to cover up a life of excess with fillers and Botox. It wasn’t a good look. I’d love to say looks don’t matter in the industry I work but sadly they do. People like Sarah make it even harder. This isn’t my before and after for Sofwave but it will give you an idea.

I always learn so much about the medical cosmetic world from you. It’s something most women keep hidden. Thanks for shining a light on the process. You are beautiful and it’s such a shame your industry places such a value on youth when wisdom comes from experience and that means the older people are the ones with the most valuable information to share and have the chops to disseminate it properly for mass consumption.

Hello new Lemmy friends!

Word on the street tells us our community is regularly making it the all page. While this is very cool news to hear, we can see how the sudden emergence of our posts in your feed might feel jarring and probably raises some questions. And also how, without knowing the backstory, our community might appear less than virtuous, so here’s a very brief introduction which hopefully will clear a few things up.

The woman we’re discussing is a body positive influencer and media personality who has gained fame and wealth by lying, manipulating, exploiting her children for content, plagiarizing BIPOC creators and blaming her BIPOC content editor for it (thereby ruining her career), among other things. Her fraudulent behavior is no different (I’d argue worse) from the likes of Jay Shetty (google him if you don’t know who he is or what he did). She’s the latest in a long line of grifting influencers who are abusing their power, taking advantage of their position and exploiting their followers. The difference is that she’s Canadian. Our laws around social media and advertising aren’t as clear (and where they are she’s disobeyed them), add to that, our mainstream media has protected her from those who’ve tried to expose her grift and silenced/intimidated anyone who’s tried to speak out.

Our Reddit sub was taken down due to reports of copyright infringement, which is unfounded and categorically untrue as no one ever tried to steal her work and pass it off as their own. The mods have made an appeal. While at first glance it may seem like we’re just “shitting on her” the sub has been more devoted to investigation and posting proof of her lies than just bitching for the sake of bitching. The reality is that she’s hurt, manipulated and let down a lot of people. She stole intellectual property and employment, caused mental distress and has repeatedly told lies to boost engagement and profit off her audience, so people are understandably upset that their voices are being silenced.

We’re grateful to have been welcomed so kindly by so many of you, and to those sticking around to watch the drama unfold, we’re glad to have you!
