Thanks. That was pretty much a big old FU to everyone, not just Tracy.
Not cool, business owner Becky. Or human Becky? Or whatever the f you're trying to be today.

"we believe there is no wrong way to document."
^^^ except if you want new PL stuff. If you want THAT for your documenting, you're screwed. It's like Becky is subconsciously saying (or not so subconsciously, lol), "just buy a notebook, d*Mn it!!"

They value documenting? Really? You wouldn’t know by looking at her posts.
Maybe that’s why she has to reiterate that it ‘A LOT’ because normally you don’t have to be told that it would show

Bwwaaahahahaha..... this reminded me of that Office episode where Pam and Jim are being passive aggressive in counseling about "speaking my truth." "Because I am speaking my truth so boldly"vimeo.com/88553571Interesting how Becky's version of truth feels a lot like lying to customers to me.

It's a really touching (and truthful) scene, the way they're so very awkward trying to communicate with each other, yet at the end, they actually have a moment of ACTUAL truth. (and yeah, the whole 'speaking my truth' thing the way Becky is doing it feels really passive aggressive.)

For someone going about speaking "one's" truth, Becky sure loves to lie. This isn't about money? Seriously? Who are you kidding with all your codes? Who hasn't spoken about Beddy's amazingest, bestest, softest, can't-live-withoutest blankets since they are no longer a podcast sponsor? Uh-uh, right. One of my favourite atheist podcasts, The How-To Heretic, is hosted by ex-Mormons and their last episode had a bit about money in Mormonism against the backdrop of the whistleblowing on the 100 billion tax-exempt dollars of the Church of LDS. For anyone interested, skip to 22:14 for episode 119: Mummies & Monies for the segment that includes the 100 billion dollars, how money is perceived by the members, how it is collected by the Church. It's all about money, all the time.

Simple notebooks are BACK, you guys! You can write so many things in them! Yawn. Because, you guys, they are notebooks. So many things. Man, yesterday’s Instagram was a total smack down on traciemomento and no commenting allowed. 😱 And she used a photo of a bunch of women to give off the impression that everyone agrees with her as “Becky the human being”. I am tracymomento and while I do post how I feel about her openly I don’t understand why you think this was directed at me. I also don’t see anything written in this post that makes me think any differently. I stand by everything I say.

The last IG post was a response to an earlier IG post (a picture of BH hiking) where someone commented about PL being dead and how notebooks, hiking, and BP was not BH's brand, even with her "evolution." It went downhill from there with some folks defending BH. That's why she turned off the comments and got so preachy in that other IG post with all of the women.

It's all about money, all the time. I'm curious to see what they say of how money is perceived by members and what that entails. I've seen as I get older there's a definite divide in the have and have-nots in Mormonism. If you are higher up, have a strong pioneer ancestry, know the right people, make a lot of money, then you get the more prestigious callings. Which leads to getting paid (only men), given homes (who knows what else), and receiving additional religious blessings that normal non-paid members will never receive or have any knowledge they exist.
I'm just sad that members are told to pay in order to receive blessings. Pay and go hungry. Pay if you want to see your family. Pay if you want to see your loved ones get married. It's ingrained from birth if you are raised in the church. If they gave one million to the 16 million members (that number is likely high), they would have 99.8 billion left. Also, it's estimated the more accurate amount is 124 billion.

I don't have any comments to add....since I unfollowed all BH social media well over a year ago (and haven't been a PL fan since the very early days). I haven't contributed much to this post lately since I mostly checked out...until today when I caught up on the last few pages and got curious and took a peek at her LLC insta. Then saw some of the hiking spot names looked familiar and did a quick search and realized we are renting a house literally 2 blocks from her new house this weekend There isn't any specific beef I'd have with her, she is just too much for me and most of her products/style weren't my aesthetic. OTOH since she would be such a familiar face I'd be so conflicted if I saw her, ya know?? I'm sure there is a slim to none chance I'd see her, but if I remember, I'll drive by her house. I work in real estate and it isn't my personal style, although I totally respect and admire the design!

^^^ ohmygosh, where is the eyes-rolling-out-of-my-head emoji?!? blech. I think she sounds like one of the most pretentious, pompous, INAUTHENTIC people I have ever had the good fortune not to meet.
one of the comments on that post: "Becky I absolutely love the way you live your brand. The reason so many of us love following you is that everything you do truly emerges out of your core value/beliefs."
to this, all I can say is WTF?!? Her *brand* is Project Life, which I thought was a memory-keeping system comprised of photos, cards, etc. Yet she never shows or talks about that, except to say that she does NOT memory-keep that way any longer. How is THAT 'living your brand' pray tell??

I don't see all her posts and, even when I do go check after someone posts here, I can never be bothered to read the comments of the lemmings. But that person who called out Becky's new 'brand' as hiking - NAILED IT. Look at her feed, nothing but her navel gazing and dishing out "guru" advice as though she understands anything other than a cossetted Mormon mommy existence. How many times was she advised to have a biz acct and a separate personal acct - so she could do all the public navel gazing she pleases on her personal acct, while leaving her biz account free for BUSINESS. But, it's a moo point (as Joey would say) - since she sh)#-canned her business long ago.

Becky does have a point. It’s her IG account and she can do as she pleases. However, what she fails to understand is that not all her followers are interested in what her account has become. She continues to try to sell overpriced items or things like the expensive retreat that the average person can’t afford. Some people just don’t care that much about her personal life—house, vacations, true confessions. I’m wondering if her audience has decreased. I’m guessing yes.

My main question- and a lot of peoples' I think- is: "what the heck IS her brand? what IS Becky Higgins, LLC now?
Because it sure as heck isn't Project Life. Just HOW is hiking and attending MLM company retreats "memory keeping?" I guess, if you consider Instagram a way to 'keep' memories, her Instagram posts are memory keeping of a sort... But- that's not her brand. She is NOT actually selling 'Instagramming' as a memory keeping device, is she?

Not sure how hiking and memory keeping go hand in hand, but it is working for her so far.

“the unfollow button is just a tap away”.

Well, she gave a clear message - unfollow. She doesn’t plan on listening to ‘customers’ that she isn’t interested in anymore. She doesn’t plan to change y’all so just take her advice & unfollow ( or watch the train wreck continue ) She will produce what she wants to produce, & people will buy it, or not, when it’s not it will be all the ‘industry’s’ fault or basically the customers fault. Clearly she isn’t interested in what you’d like to buy from her.

Yep...apparently, though, in the world of ass kissers unite, calling someone out on their shit is apparently a no-no. All we're supposed to do is coddle and tell everyone they're doing great as they drown themselves. I'm a firm believer that this is one of the reasons why we have young people (men in particular) go on shooting rampages and commit other acts of violence when a girl doesn't want to date or have sex with them. We're not doing anyone any favors by encouraging a denial of reality and telling them everyone else is to blame for all of their problems. Becky is a lost cause, though. Her remaining sheeple will probably have to get burned by her personally to abandon her at this point and even then, there will probably be a few stragglers still hanging on when the ship is completely underwater rather than the current bob above the surface going on now. What's it going to take? 'So what if the app is gone...go buy photoshop' as the next step in her 'memory keeping evolution'?

I get not enjoying the feeling of being attacked, but she made it very clear that she has no idea what the competitors are doing and what people are wanting to buy.

Honestly, my life is so authentically unintentional, all I've got are some partially used Mead notebooks...will that do?? Actually, I have a good supply of round-cornered PL duplicate cards that I could scatter like confetti when I walk past!

The idea of writing "intentionally" always makes me laugh. Has anyone ever unintentionally written by accident?
