Just looked it up and it’s specifically a weight loss clinic - to the tune of $2K per week . . .
But hey! At least her IG stories are back to focusing on scrapbooking. 👍

She was conveniently gone long enough to slide right by all the ugliness from a few weeks ago. But all I can see is a holier than though priveledged cow.

And that is what I so dislike about "influencers". They can do some really stupid shit and get away with it (white/wealthy privilege) and then come back to their blind worshipers oh I mean followers who kiss the ground they walk on. Disgusting!!! I would have chose a different word than cow but I get what you are saying. McMansion. Trips on the fly. 2 weeks are a super expensive exercise resort... Must be nice to be able to talk down to your subjects and not have to worry about putting food on the table or who will take care of your kids

I really don’t care if you agree or not with what I post. I tend to agree with you she comes off as condescending in some of her posts like how she lives/documents etc is superior to anyone else. Also in the 1000+ posts I'm sure what you said would be similar to or fit in with what many others have voiced about her LOL

It's not like she was morbidly obese, I think it was a plausible route that her stupid fan girls would believe rather then hey I really fucked up, my business has gone in the toilet because I ran it into the ground and I realized I'm not as loved as I thought I was in my mind and I need to escape the shit show I've caused.

I think it was for mental health which I'm certainly not criticizing. It was clear she needed a restart or refresh or clarity etc. She definitely needed help. I don't believe it was for weight loss at all.
IMO she still needs to own up to her brash and snide remarks on the post that caused all this. She owes an apology to the woman she quoted in her (for spite) newsletter after the post and she needs to clean her slate of the ugliness she's caused among all scrapbookers, documenters, TNers etc.
She caused the mess. Not anyone else.

I know I called her a cow but I didn’t mean it as fat. I would not think she needs a “fat camp”, nor Heidi swap. Maybe “bitch” was a better choice of word. I mean if getting healthy is her goal, good for her. But yeah, I could never do anything for a week away from my family. Even going into the hospital for surgery required a lot of planning on my part. My mental is why I scrapbook. I scrapbook to heal from painful things. She takes mental health breaks BECAUSE of scrapbooking and I’m sorry that I can’t empathize with her at all.

This is maybe a little off topic but I don’t think she understands that a good majority of family’s can’t do many of the things she takes for granted. I am not saying she shouldn’t do what she wants if she has the money I just think that on what is labeled a company page maybe she should think about being more relatable to people. This is not exactly the same thing and I am far from well off but I do have a childhood friend who doesn’t have much money. My conversation with them about certain things regarding spending and or lack of money for myself is different because I don’t want to make them take anything the wrong way. I love them and I know we both happy for each other and all that but no need to go there with them. All of this and the fact is acts superior to people with her wisdom, fashion sense, etc etc is all too much.

You said 'it' and the first thing that came to my mind was NOT the resort, the privilege that you mentioned in the prior sentence was where my mind went. In this instance, even though I know you meant the resort, but honestly, I think that she probably either thinks that we either ARE privileged like she is or that it's just something we can open the door and attain just by willing it into existence.

She recommends it like a number of us could actually go there LOL! I'm wondering if she was strongly encouraged to go to the "resort". You said it and my mind went to privilege rather than the resort. She is so distanced from reality that either thinks those who follow her ARE privileged enough to just drop everything and go away on a mental health break or that we can just open the door and attain privilege.
I also don't think she believes there is anything wrong with her. When Heidi went, most of her following knows that she was trying to heal after a tremendous loss...it isn't that hard to understand why she'd need or want a mental health break. Meanwhile, all the call out on mental health issues to Becky Higgins seemed to have turned it into something else for her to shill. She doesn't think there is anything wrong with her, she hasn't acknowledged anything she's done wrong in having her mental health issues go untreated, etc. It's just another thing for her to sell while pretending to have addressed issues that she's still going to pretend she doesn't have.

I’ll agree with the holier than thou priviledged part. Her statement on NSD couldn’t be taken anyother way really. It was basically “I’m better than you are, you should do what I do, so there” type of statement.
BUT I have to strenuously object to the defaming of cows. Becky looks nor acts in any way like any cow I’ve ever known. Cows are usually sweet, definitely not holier than thou. Although many cows do have ‘please please like me’ syndrome. But I still must strongly disagree on the cow statement. Completely uncalled for

I really don’t care if you agree or not with what I post. Fair enough, but I think calling another woman a cow is insulting and fat-shaming. Maybe that's a regional interpretation of the word?

BH has actually commented about the fact she has put on weight in the last year or so. It hits most of us after 40. So I don’t doubt it was about her feeling better about her body, but I think it was more a mental health break. I think there must have been some sort of intervention, because I don’t think BH is quite that self aware.

The overshare again. She could have said “I needed to regroup, I went away to a quiet place for a week to refocus”.
No one would blame her for that. No one would judge her for that. We would generally all agree that would be a smart thing. That’s mostly attainable for everyone. A week or a weekend, a place of natural beauty that heals your weary soul. She could have even shared most of the same pictures.
But no. She has to take the opportunity to cross-market her brand and the rehab/resort brand. She has to play that card. It’s classic oversharing for profit. She can’t help it. Did she get a discount on her stay in exchange for her endorsement? Now watch as all the fan girls flock to this place.
This is what “influencers” do. Everything is about the “influence”. She has sold her mental health for a week’s stay at a luxury resort. Sad.

I think you just described about 90% of my Instagram feed LOL. I can't shame BH without shaming all the other so called influencers that are flaunting their endless trips and free products all while who knows who is at home watching their 4+ kids. The only way to avoid it all is to unplug for the social media monster.

Follow different people? I make it a practice to not follow anyone with more than a thousand followers.

Go spend some 💰 to stay at Becky’s pricey resort and mention that you heard about it from her and get a $100 gift card to use while you’re there. 😬
