For our first episode of LuLaBitch, we welcome Derryl Trujillo, the charming and stalwart Home Office employee from LuLaRich on Amazon Prime. I first met Derryl back in 2017, right after we had both left LuLaRoe and found Defective. When helping consult on LuLaRich, I KNEW the producers needed to hear what really happened in Home Office and that Derryl was the only one who could tell it. Derryl shares his experiences being hired, dealing with failed launches, Convention 2016 & 2017 (you decide which was worse) and his emotional tear filled realization that he's worth more than this. Who's joining us at Miguel's for Happy Hour?

Episode 45: "Tallulah"
"Tallulah" dodged a bullet when she saw the red flags at a World Financial Group recruitment event and decided to turn down "the opportunity". After making that decision, she was harassed and bullied by her recruiter with vicious texts and voice messages. We also discuss different red flags to look for when trying to figure out if the opportunity being offered is a scam or not, the differences between MLM and "Corporate America" and what to expect from a legitimate job offer.

Katie S. joined LuLaRoe in the Spring of 2017, and spent over 3 months waiting in the onboarding queue. Though Katie is not featured in LuLaRich, her story would have fit perfectly in the series. We chat about our mirrored experiences in LuLaRoe during our time under the same Mentor, the mess that was Vision 2017 and the ADA issues, the mysterious hashtag "#becauseoflularoe", being stacked, manipulated launches, defective product, and how much she got for selling her team, and walking away. We also talk about the issues that arise when you unknowingly bring people you love into a scam. This is Part 1.
