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!

Oh time to bring back that she’s a headache sufferer so she can shill some products 🙄
What about the Botox for migraines? I thought that was the cure. Now it’s Saje products.
God, is there a roll-on that can STOP those fake crispy Rs? It’s nauseating. This woman is such BS.
I can’t freaking STAND when she does that with her Rs. One of many reasons it made unfollowing her easy to do
I guess she doesn’t need Botox anymore!
Only to keep her face from moving now
Considering she’s said Botox got rid of her migraines, surprised saje hired her to lie.
Such a good point
Here's my Saje headache story. I get migraines. The Saje roll-on provides a very small degree of relief, mainly because it feels cool going on because of the peppermint, but it NEVER really knocked out the migraine pain. Oh, and once I went to use it as I was driving because my head was POUNDING, and it came out so much it ran into my eyes. I couldn't pull over for 5 minutes to dump a bottle of water over my eyes to stop the burn.
Omg that sounds like such a scary experience! See, I appreciate REAL reviews like this and not ones like Sarah’s where everything is sooo great and it’s the best product to ever exist and I better go out and spend my money on it asap because it’ll cure all my ailments 🙄
Yeah, it was BAD! I swiped across my upper forehead and on my temples, not realizing it came out of the roll-on so much that it was running down into my eyes. I've given Saje A LOT of money over the years. I don't trust people who never have issues with anything. If you suffer from migraines the way I do, the kind that send you to a darkened room with throbbing pain and flashing aura, a roll on isnt gonna cut it beyond feeling a little cooling and comforting for a few minutes.
She will say anything to put a buck in her bag.
Omg this 1000000% don’t even remotely get it near your eyes because it burns. Sadly I really do like this roll on just soothes the pain rather than taking it away
