One Rotten Apple

In this episode, we sit down with Nicole and A, two passionate Facebook group admins who set out to create a haven for like-minded crunchy women seeking support, empowerment, and camaraderie in a Southern town. Their intentions were pure, their vision radiant – to cultivate a positive and loving online and in-person community where women could thrive together and find a healthy lifestyle for their families in the deep-fried south.
But as we all know, even the most idyllic landscapes can fall prey to a single rotten apple. In this case, that rotten apple was one toxic and deceitful individual who disrupted the harmony that Nicole and A had worked so hard to foster. Join us as we explore the journey of these two admins, the highs, the lows, and the heartbreaking downfall of a community that was torn apart by the actions of one toxic person.
They’ll share the warning signs that went unnoticed, the challenges faced by Nicole and A, and the devastating consequences of toxicity within a supportive group. This episode serves as a cautionary tale for online community leaders and members alike, reminding us of the fragility of even the most well-intentioned spaces.
Tune in to "One Rotten Apple" as we reflect on how a vision of empowerment and love can take an unexpected turn, leaving us to ponder the age-old question: Can the actions of one truly spoil the goodness of many? Oh my, let’s get into it.
