Cory’s daughter and the co worker.
Well done! I feel so sorry for the kind people who helped her, but mostly for Cory’s daughter.
Now after listening to the poor co-workers story, my heart breaks! I’ve met people like Amanda in that position! You, the co-worker have so much to give.
Loved it
This podcast is great, the telling of the story and the shocking twists and turns throughout made it a great listen. I never heard of this story before and it’s so important to tell. There’s probably a lot of health scammers out there.
