Seeking truth and getting real -- helping you discover your strength and voice to make the best, informed choices on YOUR terms in accordance to HIS will.
In this episode, I’m joined by my friend and fellow Beachbody alum Jessie Boudreaux, a mom of two who's built a thriving business as a social media manager and UGC creator. We’re talking about the gritty, unfiltered truth of pivoting careers—specifically what it really takes to leave the comfortable “identity” of network marketing and build a business aligned with your values, your family, and your time.
We dig deep on what it’s like emotionally to walk away from a business model that sold us the dream of time freedom, only to discover real freedom building something on our own terms. Jessie Boudreaux gets honest about mom guilt, what she misses (and doesn’t) about network marketing, boundaries, and the realities of running a content creation business.
Whether you’re a mom craving more flexibility, feeling the tug to pivot, or just tired of hustling for someone else’s dream, this conversation is for you.

➡ 3 No-Fluff Takeaways
1 - Time Freedom in Network Marketing Is a Mirage
If you think network marketing will give you true flexibility, think again. We both came in seeking time freedom, but reality looked like being glued to our phones 24/7—documenting every single workout, meal, and “relatable” life moment.
2 - You Don’t Need a Massive Audience to Succeed as a Content Creator
Forget the follower obsession. Jessie Boudreaux is earning more now with under 1,000 followers than she ever did with tens of thousands in network marketing. Brands hire for quality and messaging, not vanity metrics.
3 - Your Worth Isn’t Tied to Ranks, Accolades, or Hype
We got real about how network marketing ties your sense of value to rank and recognition—and how that can wreak havoc on your confidence and mental health. Building your own business puts you in control. Your income is tied to the value you create—not how many people you recruit or how loudly you sell the “dream.”

Welcome to this week’s episode of The Income Blueprint Unfiltered! I’m Maren, and today I’m getting all the way real about what’s happening with UGC courses, master resale rights, and how to actually build skills that pay far beyond a social media trend.
I break down:
No fluff, no filters, just the uncomfortable truths and sharp strategies you need to build a business that lasts beyond the latest TikTok trend. Whether you’re a creator, multi-passionate entrepreneur, or a mom pulling double duty, this episode’s for you.

🔑 3 Key Takeaways
Ask Better Questions Before Investing
Don’t just ask if you should buy a course, dig deeper. Where is the person’s income really coming from? Are you buying a skill, a roadmap, or just the chance to sell the same thing?
A Real UGC Business Isn’t Built Overnight
Viral income screenshots usually hide the reality: most UGC creators start with small jobs, build their portfolios, and face rejections. Sustainable success comes from skills like pitching, content improvement, and building brand relationships - not quick wins or master resale rights.
Skill Over Trend—Every Time
Trends fade, but real skills stay valuable. If a course disappeared tomorrow, would you still have something profitable to offer? That’s your litmus test for any education investment. True empowerment comes when your income stream isn’t dependent on someone else’s platform or program.

Are you a mom, creator, or business owner dreaming of financial freedom without the hype or overcomplicated systems? If you’re ready for real, actionable strategies on how to batch User-Generated Content (UGC) and Amazon videos, without turning your life upside down, this guide strips away the fluff. Let’s dig in.
I’m breaking down exactly how I batch my content, set non-crazy goals, and keep things flexible enough to actually FIT my life (instead of running it). No more feeling guilty, overwhelmed, or convinced you’re behind. Let’s get unfiltered.
Full show notes and resources on my website →
🔑 3 Takeaways
Set Realistic, Life-Friendly Goals
Please stop choosing arbitrary numbers or getting stuck in “one video every single day” pressure.
Batch by Task—Keep It Simple
You don’t need six outfit changes or a production studio. I batch my content by task (filming, editing, voiceover) and often wear the same thing in multiple videos.
Use Real Life As Your B-Roll Goldmine
Grab clips as you live - a few seconds here and there builds a library you can use for months.

Welcome back to The Income Blueprint Unfiltered! This episode isn’t about perfect morning routines, miracle planners, or sugarcoated advice. It's about facing what’s really holding you back: exhaustion. I’m Maren Crowley, and today we’re cutting through the noise about productivity to talk honestly about sleep as a business strategy, not just “self-care fluff.”
Whether you’re an entrepreneur, creator, or a busy mom juggling 27 tabs in your brain, chances are what feels like a business problem is actually an exhaustion problem. I share my personal story of burning the midnight oil, why the old “hustle harder” mentality is costing you more than you think, and some no-nonsense strategies to reclaim your energy (and your time).
You’ll get real talk, no guilt, no unrealistic routines, just tactical ways to spot and stop the three biggest “sleep thieves” in your life, plus simple steps you can take right now to see a real difference in your patience, productivity, and income.

🔥 3 Key Takeaways
1. Sleep is a Capacity Multiplier—Not a Reward
If you’re treating sleep as something you “earn” after finishing your to-do list, you’re robbing yourself of the ability to show up at your best.
2. You Can Outsource Tasks—But Not Your Nervous System
You can hire a virtual assistant, schedule your social media, and automate like a pro, but you cannot outsource your sleep or restore your energy by delegation.
3. Awareness > Overhauls
Don’t overhaul your life overnight. Instead, experiment with one change this week: go to bed 30 minutes earlier, skip the bedtime scroll, or move up your caffeine cut-off.

You know that feeling when it's late at night, your body is exhausted, but you can't quite turn your brain off — so you reach for your phone, open Instagram "just for a second," and someone else's reel makes your stomach drop? Maybe they hit a million views, signed a huge brand deal, or their house looks spotless while your laundry has been in the dryer for two days.
Suddenly the life you were perfectly fine with five minutes ago starts to feel small. Here's the truth: comparison is loud, but conviction is quiet — and if you can't tell those two voices apart, you'll end up building a life that looks impressive but doesn't actually belong to you.
In this episode I get real about the $20,000-month posts (I've had those months — and I break down what they actually cost me), the myth that we all have "the same 24 hours," and why your season of life changes everything. No rose-colored glasses, just an honest reminder that your worth isn't tied to your output.

Amazon content is not just about what is trending today. It is about understanding what people are about to buy next.
If you’re tired of chasing trends and always feeling behind, this episode is for you. I dig into why most creators miss out on Amazon’s real earning potential and how thinking (and planning) ahead is the difference between random content and a sustainable income blueprint.
We’re talking about how to plan your content like a business, why moms have a secret edge, and specific steps you can use to start earning more—without burning out.
Whether you’re working two jobs or folding laundry between takes, there’s a smarter way to create. I’m here to show you how to combine evergreen and seasonal content, batch create like a pro, and operate from a plan—not panic.

Welcome to a no-fluff, truth-driven conversation that might ruffle some feathers—because today, I'm pulling back the curtain on a cycle playing out every day in the MLM (multi-level marketing) world.
If you’ve ever wondered why top influencers go from swearing by one product or company one minute to bashing it and jumping ship the next, this episode is for you.
I dig into the emotional and psychological ecosystem fueling these constant pivots—and why it goes far beyond the “life-changing” products we see flooding our feeds.
I’m sharing not only from the outside looking in but pulling lessons from my own decade-plus inside the top.01% of the MLM machine. No attacks, just hard questions and honest reflection on how these environments shape identity, loyalty, and burnout, especially for women.

In today’s episode, I’m sharing my very real and no-nonsense take on why I walked away from network marketing—even as a top 1% earner—and why UGC (User Generated Content) and content creation offer more freedom, flexibility, and ownership for women, moms, and creators looking to build sustainable income streams online.
I’m breaking down the realities, the hard truths, and the lessons I learned after a decade in the trenches of MLMs like Beachbody.

The mental load is the invisible cognitive labor of running a household — the constant remembering, anticipating, and managing that most moms carry alone, all day, every day.
In this episode, Maren breaks down the three layers of the mental load (remembering, anticipating, and delegating/following up), the emotional labor and guilt that sit on top of it, and why it seems to get heavier in modern motherhood. More importantly — what actual change looks like. Hint: it's not about splitting chores 50/50.
If you’ve ever felt guilty for needing a break, overwhelmed from invisible tasks, or frustrated by the feeling that other people just don’t see what you’re holding—all while loving your family deeply—this episode is for you. I also discuss the importance of real partnership and practical ways to start unloading some of what you’re carrying.

There's a good chance I get fired up in this one. An Instagram reel from a top-earning MLM influencer, boarding a chartered plane in Christian Louboutins, mocking women doing UGC and Amazon content — with the implication that network marketing is what made it all possible. Now, even the FTC is stepping in.
In this episode, I'm using my own background as a top 0.01% Beachbody earner to break down why the lifestyle being marketed is not representative of what most people will experience — and what the data actually says about MLM income claims.

In this episode, I dive deep into a topic that not many people in the UGC (User-Generated Content) world talk about—rejection. We often see the big wins, the partnerships, and the success stories, but behind every “yes” are countless unanswered emails, pitches that missed the mark, and flat-out nos.
Today, I break down what rejection really means, how to process it in a healthy way, and how you can actually use it to your advantage. I draw on my experiences in network marketing and UGC, share insights on handling no’s from brands, and give practical advice on follow-ups, building relationships, and keeping your mindset in the right place.
Whether you’re brand new or a seasoned content creator, this conversation will help you reframe the way you handle rejection and set you up for long-term consistency and growth.

Welcome to another episode of the If You Know, You Know podcast! Today I’m pulling back the curtain on one of the biggest myths in the online space: that you have to constantly be posting to grow your following and earn an income.
After years in content creation—and especially since becoming a mom—I learned that chasing growth at the expense of your presence just isn’t sustainable.
In this episode, I share my journey of drawing boundaries, handling backlash from followers, and the mindset shifts that allowed me to create content with intention, not overwhelm.
I’m breaking down the difference between content that connects and content that burns you out, plus practical strategies for growing your audience (and your income) without being tethered to your phone 24/7.
Whether you’re a seasoned creator, a newcomer to UGC, or just looking to reclaim your time and sanity, this episode is your permission to simplify.

In this episode, I dive into what a niche truly is—and what it isn’t. If you’ve ever felt boxed in or confused when someone tells you to “pick a niche” on social media, you’re not alone.
I share my own journey of balancing multiple identities (golf professional, mom, content creator) and why niching down is more about clarifying your message than cutting off parts of yourself.
You’ll hear how I approach my own content, how I use different aspects of my life for context and credibility, and some hard-earned lessons about staying in alignment with your values.
I also walk through tangible steps to help you discover your own niche without feeling limited, so you can grow an authentic and sustainable online presence.

Have you ever seen someone claim they're making $1,600 a week doing UGC and immediately thought — "okay, but what's the catch?" That reaction is completely valid, especially if you've been through network marketing.
In this episode, I'm breaking down the real difference between UGC and MLMs — and why they are not the same thing, no matter how similar they can look on the surface. I've lived both worlds, and I'm sharing what I know from real experience, including a story where I made $320 from one brand simply by showing up and delivering fast.

Everybody online is promising you'll replace your income in 30 days. Here's the truth — that's not the full picture. I'm walking you through my honest UGC timeline: from starting at absolute zero, two weeks before my second baby was born, to landing my first paycheck and building something real.
My first UGC job paid me $15 for a photo. I came from network marketing where I was making $5,000–$6,000 a week. That $15 felt like proof — not humbling. And that proof changed everything. I cover the 3 things that actually moved the needle, why UGC is something anyone can do, and what my students are seeing inside my course.
Your first paycheck is closer than you think. Let's get you there.

In this episode, I’m breaking down the emotional tax of people-based income, why recruiting can feel like carrying a whole business on your back, and what changed when I shifted into skill-based income through UGC + Amazon.

Let’s get real. If you’re a mom and you’ve ever thought, “I don’t have enough time to build something online,” this episode is for you.
Because here’s the truth. Motherhood didn’t make you less capable. It built skills in you that translate directly into high-performing UGC. And if you’ve ever been in an MLM, you already know how heavy that “always on” pressure is.
UGC is different. It’s deliverable-based. You film, you submit, you get paid. No rose-colored glasses. Just a model that respects boundaries.
In this episode, I dive deep into one of the biggest misconceptions out there — that motherhood sets you back in business, especially in the world of UGC (User Generated Content) and social selling. I share my own transition from hitting the top ranks in network marketing to becoming a mom of two and finding my groove in the UGC space.
My goal is to encourage you: being a parent, specifically a mom, is not a disadvantage—it's your superpower. I break down the real skills motherhood gives you, why UGC offers a healthier way to earn online, and how the decision-making you master as a parent directly translates to success as a creator.

What You'll Learn:
Key Insight: As someone who spent over a decade in the top 0.01% of network marketing, Maren shares why UGC is a fundamentally better path. There's no pressure to make sales or build a team. Creators produce authentic content that brands use across their marketing channels and get paid upfront for their work.
The best part? Creators don't have to post anything on their personal accounts. Brands post the content on their pages and in their ads. Privacy stays intact. Family time stays protected. And creators still build multiple income streams.
This is literally for everyone. When Maren says there's a low barrier to entry, she means it. The 99.99% can actually earn income from UGC—not just the elite few.

In this episode, Maren Crowley dives deep into the recent controversy centered on the 2025 Dove Awards, exploring the drama between Christian artist Forrest Frank and country music star Jelly Roll.
Maren addresses the complexities of faith, money, recognition, and personal conviction in the Christian music industry while reflecting on how judgment and division manifest online and in real-life spiritual communities.
Drawing from her own reflections and audience conversations, she discusses the intersections of commerce, calling, and community within the context of modern worship music.
Personal Conviction Runs Deep:
Forrest Frank’s decision to skip the Dove Awards was based on his own faith journey and convictions, feeling uncomfortable receiving recognition for sharing the gospel, which he considers a calling, not a competition.
Money and Ministry Are Complicated (and That’s OK):
The episode explores the tension between earning an income and spreading the gospel. From high ticket prices to discussions about pastors’ salaries, Maren argues that financial choices are between individuals and God.
Judgment Divides, Unity Heals:
Throughout the controversy, Maren notes the quickness of online judgment, especially among fellow Christians.

Hey everyone, I'm back after taking a little break - and let me tell you, between my work in the golf industry and family life, things have been absolutely wild! I needed to slow down and really process everything that's been happening, especially with this huge news about Modere shutting down. It's bringing up a lot of parallels with what we saw happen with Beachbody, Make Wellness, and other MLMs.
More on the episode page on my website
As someone who was once a top leader in Beachbody, I want to share my insider perspective on what's really going on in network marketing - the culture, the red flags, and yes, even the cult-like aspects that I personally experienced. I'll be real with you about how hard it is to leave these organizations and the manipulation tactics they use to keep people in.
We're going to dig into some pretty eye-opening stuff today - like how these top leaders bounce between companies, the sketchy practice of "bridge payments" (I'll explain what those are), and why it seems like actual products take a backseat to endless recruitment.
I'm also going to break down something fascinating - how MLMs actually fit the criteria that cult expert Michael D. Langone uses to identify cult behavior. I've got plenty of real stories from my years in the industry to show you exactly what I mean about the manipulation, leader worship, and how they use exclusion to keep people in line.
But don't worry - I'm not just here to point out problems. I want to show you there are better ways to make money, like creating UGC (User-Generated Content) or getting into Amazon shoppable videos. Trust me, these alternatives are so much more empowering than the MLM model.

When you hear the word geriatric, what do you think of? Do you picture a little lady with a walker and sunglasses or a gray-haired man walking with a cane? That's what comes to mind for me. But did you know once you turn 35 years old and are pregnant, they deem you as part of the advanced maternal age, aka Geriatric? Here's what you can expect from this episode on geriatric pregnancy:
🔑 Key Takeaways
1. Potential Risks: Certain conditions like miscarriage, genetic disorders, and pregnancy complications can cause complications.
2. Potential Benefits: Time with your spouse before children allows you to travel and have experiences together. Both marriage and children can force you to grow up and mature.
3. NIPT/Genetic Testing: It's a screening test offered during pregnancy to see if the baby is at risk for having Down syndrome, Edward syndrome, and Patau syndrome, which is trisomy 20, 118, and 13, respectively. The NIPT can't screen for all chromosomal or genetic conditions, but it does have a 99.9% accuracy for the ones I listed.

In today's episode, we dive into a topic that's familiar to many of us - hitting rock bottom. This is something we've all experienced in different forms. It could be in a relationship or a friendship. It might have been a physical rock bottom, the moment you decided to take control of your health.
Or, like many of us, it could have been a financial low point. I can personally attest to going through all of these.
The truth is, we all hit that rock bottom moment where we declare, "This is enough." We realize that we can't keep living the way we have been. We can't keep accepting dishonesty from our spouse or partner.
We can't continue to be that friend who's always making the effort, without any reciprocation.

I've been involved in network marketing and social selling for over a decade. And a trend that always comes up is this fantasy of retiring your spouse because of the work you've put in and your success. In this episode, I discuss why this trend is not always the smartest play in your playbook despite what these network marketers try to promote.
In this episode I raise a thought-provoking concern about the added burden on women when they're at home not contributing financially. I zero in on the pressure on mothers. Is it time for a reckoning when it comes to juggling roles and expectations? 🤔💪

So June has always been one of my favorite months. In fact, today is actually my birthday. It's always represented celebration, the start of summer, and great weather finally making its way to the northeast. But in the past 2 years, especially this year, I feel like June has become a month full of anger, pointing fingers, arguments, and more. And it's not lost on me or you that most of this stems from different groups of people feeling like they're being backed into a corner. People do not feel seen on either side. And while there should be inclusion and representation, the general consensus, as you've seen from the boycotts, is that the people just want it to be proportionate. So in this quick episode, I dive into some important facts and exactly what's at stake here.

Grief is something that we all experience at some point in our lives. Whether it's losing a parent, spouse, dear friend, or even a child. But how do we navigate and cope with those personal losses?

Lori's parents were her BEST FRIENDS, and she sadly lost them both within a very short period of time. She's taken her experience and made it her superpower.

Did you know that April is OT month? Me neither! But what exactly is occupational therapy anyway? It's a science-driven, evidence-based profession that enables people of all ages to achieve their goals and function at the highest level despite the fact that they might be living with injury, illness, or disability. Occupational therapists design strategies for everyday living and customize the plan based on an individual's personal environment in order to help them develop and maximize their potential. Each of us is born with God-given talents, skills, and strengths. Occupational therapists help clients tap into those attributes so that they can live their best life possible. In this week's episode, we chat with my friend and OT, Dr. Faith Saunders. We discuss early signs of needing help and how to familiarize people with this amazing resource so that they and their families can thrive!

I'm going to avoid using any buzzwords in the show notes so this episode doesn't get flagged.
It seems as though I'm talking about this theme every few months, and I understand that this can be a very emotional topic. To be clear, I don't believe in hate. I believe in what is right, what is fair, and what is true. So today, we will be talking strictly FACTS.
