HALIFAX, NS— Local influencer Rachel Gagnon has been making waves in the local LinkedIn community for her achievements. She is a full time management student, an MLM essential oil saleswoman, and she has ten thousand followers on Instagram.
Despite her seeming success, rumours have been spreading alleging that she is not, in fact, a girlboss, and instead just a people pleaser who is incapable of saying no.
The Mackerel received copies of private communications between Gagnon and an anonymous friend, which reveal that some aspects of her fame is a lie. In a message from February 17th she admitted to purchasing followers, and on the 26th she admitted she is actually very stressed out about the fact that “nobody believes in holistic medicine”.
The anonymous source also admitted that they live with Gagnon and despite her numerous posts about their medical benefits, their living room is filled with unsold boxes of essential oils.
When reached for comment, Gagnon did not respond. The same day she posted on her Instagram story that she was “in meetings all day” and “making money moves”. These statements could not be verified.
