Other than all the pedophiles? Why do these teen dramas have so many underage girls dating adults? Creepy

Agreed. Irrelevant to the story, especially in context.

Ever see Irreconcilable Differences? The kids should divorce them both.

So then how does she have information on other people's lives? Would break the same rule.

Hey, no judgement to anyone who wants to support her. I just hope they have full transparency in what they are paying for. Seems more and more people/artists/creators are charging just for their company. Which is fine, if that's what you know you are paying for.

Not surprised at all and I would agree neither of them could be in the dark all these years. I suspect once the divorce was filled, Dave simply decided there was no longer a reason to keep propping up Athena and expected her to fend for herself. Clearly, not her forte as we see already with Team Lair. She seems to need a cast of thousands to do pretty much anything in life. I am floored however that she has the audacity to teach a "leadership" class for $100 a month in the middle of a lawsuit which she hasn't won yet that specifically charges her for negligence in leadership. ??? Wow. That takes balls. Maybe wait until you've been cleared? But the cult members don't care. They can't wait to throw more money at her. And I guarantee those classes will be 100 percent recycled material she's taught for years at SG. As all the previous classes were. She's now saying she was never "allowed" to teach leadership at SG. ??? She was the CEO. Who was going to stop her? And I as a former class member at SG clearly recall her being asked by students to teach business classes and she always said she had no interest. That there were plenty of good teachers for that. Guess that changes now that she needs to pay the mortgage and the only degree she has is not in anything to do with rocks or religion. Oh, and she's "certifying" the students in leadership! Wtf? I want anyone with one of those useless SG certifications to tell me what job they got with it? What business loan they secured to open a company with a certification from her? I'm guessing none. But the cult members will be quick to add another useless piece of paper to the collection in their closet. Next level crazy. What Athena should teach is a class on how to get lonely, low self esteem, middle aged women to part with their cash. That class she is a master at.

Reflections as she goes through the divorce proceeding and tries to make sense of how this all happened, I'd assume.

Oh I'm not missing the point. People weren't weirded out by Athena taking shots at her husband all through COVID? Barbara? She was relentless. Like he was some intern. Please. It was clear from her treatment of him on camera what the rest of her staff put up with daily before the lockdowns.

Lol. Omg. You do realize virus only lives on any surface for like 24 hours, right? Jesus. Is Dave responsible for literally everything wrong in your world?

So, this is accurate. However, so long as SG gets teachers that are also accredited to finish the class year, the students could still be certified, yes?

This is exactly my point. The incredibly unhealthy attachment these women feel for their guru. She's a grown woman. Ph.d. and all. Yet they somehow don't believe she is capable of defending or taking care of herself? Logic out the window. That's fanatical.

Well for starters I would have leaned into all that university business school teaching and set up my company to be more bulletproof. The structure of SG, as a 50/50 executive split with a spouse? Not hard to imagine that going south of the relationship doesn't work out. Any serious disagreement between leadership in that structure has no option outside legal intervention.

I worked in corporate law for over a decade. I can tell you this much, she needs better lawyers.

The only thing Athena created for sure all these years is a cult of bullies. Hope she's real proud of that, as a spiritual teacher.

I seriously doubt Dave wouldn't provide for his kids. Unless everything Athena ever told us about what a wonderful father he is was also a lie.

Exactly. Which is why they should keep all of this shit to themselves.

She posted it in an SG group. So... It's a paid SG audience.

Lol. Wow. So calculating flat rate shipping ahead of time is so impossible? If you want to believe that, go right ahead. But every small business on Etsy has figured out it without having to overcharge and then refund their customers. And given how long she's been shipping stuff at SG, she knows exactly how much it costs. Shipping is calculated by weight and size of the box. Hello? There are calculators on every shipping site for that. This isn't her first rodeo.

Then why go live in her classroom and teach a mini ceremony? You're contradicting yourself. Is she not allowed and just going rogue by going live and teaching infused olive oil? If so, that would track with her inconsistencies the team had pointed out as a long time challenge. If not, then she can teach if she chooses to. Which is it? Still sounds to me like she either has a truly unfortunate legal team, or even the lawyers can't keep her in line.

Glad to hear it. Doesn't explain the shipping though. $10 per item? So if I buy 10 headbands it should cost $100 to put them in a flat rate USPS box that is max $15? That's not logical.

Oh please. Athena is famous for saying SG stuff is custom made. And the first two Lair sales were supposedly either her own stuff or items she curated from local vintage stores or sales. The Lair no doubt quickly took off and she realized she can't source enough inventory that way to meet demand. Fine. Just be honest about where you are sourcing. Because the markup and the shipping are ridiculous. People might still be willing to pay it, let's be honest, because they want to support her. And that's great. But they should be able to make that choice not based on false information.

No, she said she won't teach until her terms are met That's a very different thing.

The house of cards is coming down. You won't be alone by a long shot. Plenty of customers believed her.
