I found Sarah's YouTube channel after someone recommended I try paleo to help lose weight with my PCOS. I didn't know much about it so searched on YT and her vlogs came up. I instantly resonated with her journey and fell under her influence. Although I never bought anything from her (I nearly bought Body Bloom in a Black Friday sale once but the import fees cost more than the shipping which was already astronomical. I emptied my basket but still got spam emails from Tropeaka despite never checking out. Had to block them in the end) I made note of every powder and supplement she would take so I could buy my own versions in the UK. I thought if I took all those supplements and drank all those powders I too could balance my hormones and reverse my PCOS like she was doing. Then she fell pregnant and it shattered me but it was then I finally gave Instagram a go and started following her over there. I noticed she was a different person on her stories than her vlogs but didn't think much of it.
Then came the bushfires. I hadn't realised just how many Aussie accounts I followed on IG until I the bushfires started happening. So many were effected. Then Sarah did an ebook sale to raise money and, although I didn't see the point of donating through someone else instead of direct to the charities, I thought what she was doing was admirable.
But then nothing happened. I started reading through her IG comments and saw people asking about the money and later saw those comments were gone. I briefly saw other comments asking why posts were being deleted before they too were go after a refresh. The final red flag for me was when she sat in her car and faked cried about not being able to donate the money due to bs reasons. I decided to Google her name and I found Guru Gossip. I never looked back.
I now hate watch and participate on this forum because I want to see her cancelled. I'm still bitter that she conned me and so many other women with her fake PCOS diagnosis and won't be happy until she's well and truly outed for it (and everything else she's lied about).
