The Southern Belles
Chris and I met two precious women in Opelika A couple weeks ago, my husband and I went on a rare overnight trip, just the two of us. We were attending an event several hours away and entrusted our kiddos to a dear couple. I believe this was only the second time to do that…

“May I have one of those chocolate brownies?”

I went on a quest to bust 7 myths about Monat
And this is what I learned #1. “It’s a pyramid scheme.” 🚩 Okay, the first myth we’re going to decimate is the thought that Monat is a pyramid scheme. No, and for these five reasons: With anything or anyone who is successful, there is going to be a lot of scrutiny and criticism. And MLMs…
