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!

Also, I want to remind everybody that she started yoga because she was copying Shane's live-in girlfriend. When she said she had lost feeling in her legs because of “bone on bone because I was so skinny”. In reality, it was because she was doing yoga poses on her head improperly. She had a pinched nerve in her neck and one of her legs (allegedly), and she went and told everybody it was because she was so underweight that she was bone on bone, so she lost feeling in her legs, which doesn’t even make sense.
It’s painful reading her bs
And let's not forget she was editing herself thinner, at her thinnest. The bone on bone thing makes me chuckle, she's so full of shit. If this were true, how did she fix her advanced arthritis? --Bone on bone" describes the advanced stage of arthritis, usually osteoarthritis, where the protective cartilage cushioning the ends of bones in a joint wears away, causing the bones to rub directly against each other, leading to significant pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility.
Is this also when she claimed she needs life long meds?
Everything she says is a lie.
Like when did they actually meet?? Was in Concourse, was it the Keg or was it actually sometime when they were neighbors?
Oh that one is a straight up lie. He bought the house to be closer to her. He bought the house after they met.
She was so underweight, but she didn’t have an ED, because she couldn’t possibly have an ED because her sister had one…..but then she had one….
Was she like this as a teen? Does she have a history of just making up lies for sympathy? It's so damn weird. That bone on bone thing is ridiculous. Did she have surgery then if her cartilage was gone? That's a pretty major mobility and pain issue.
