Why would anyone want to purchase any of Karen Salmasohn's programs, books, posters, teeshirts, etc?

As a self-help guru she is a charlatan and snake oil salesman. If you go to her website, notsalmon.com/programs/ you can see she is NOW charging a mere $599 for a "pillage and conquer" program. This program is supposed to get you un-stuck in either your business or personal life.

Well, my friends, she is a fraud. She is not the person you want to go for advice. You can read all about her life not only on articles in the NY Post and Daily News, but also on her very own Hufffington Post Blog. She should not be dispensing advise. Basically, she advises women how to pick the "right'" man, meanwhile she purposefully gets pregnant with a married man. When he finds out she's pregnant he runs far away from her. Now she's suing and jilt blogging him. VERY VERY BAD behavior for a professional woman. This is not the type of person you want to use for help in your business or professional life. Please be forewarned, she may blog about YOU as well if you "bed" down with her and go to her for help

So as her website says, if you are eager to start living with greater levels of success, courage, fulfillment, pride, confidence, creativity, joy, purpose, vitality, love and self-love, DO NOT USE OR PAY FOR ANY OF KAREN SALMANSON's programs, books, teeshirts, posters, RUN FAR, FAR AWAY!!!!!!!!!!!!

I love Karen's coaching and books!

AUTHOR: Devorah - (United States of America)

POSTED: Wednesday, March 07, 2012

I have been familiar with Karen's books, life coaching, and seminars for a few years now  - and I love her work. This post above  - which written by someone who has suspiciously chosen to remain Anonymous - is completely unfounded - and also confusing. This Anonymous person says that  Karen is liar - then also says Karen wrote openly on Huffingtonpost about her situation with her ex-fiance Mitchell Leff - who abandoned her while she was pregnant - after he paid 30 thousand dollars to purposefully get her pregnant with his sperm. If Karen honestly and authentically wrote about what happened,  it proves she is honest and open with her fans.

Also Karen's books are very researched - full of psychological studies plus also Eastern and Greek philosophy. In one of her books Karen shares openly about her mistakes with "Prince Harmings"  - which Mitchell Leff turned out to be - athough she does not use any names in the book. Plus she openly shares the tools she's used to bounce back from her adversities.I believe Karen's bounce back tools work because she is living proof that that she knows how to bounce back., Karen impressively bounced back from the damage Mitch Leff did. I read how she has since met a nice guy who she is happily involved with- yet at the same time, Karen has not shared any specific details about this new man - which shows how Karen does not blog about the men she beds down with - as Anonymous says she does. In fact, Karen has been writing for over a decade, and I have never sees ANY jilt-blogging articles. Not one. As far as what she wrote in 2010 on Huffintonpost, I interpreted this article as Karen sincerely wanting to openly share what happened to her - which makes her the opposite of a liar or cheater. It makes her authentic and real. Plus Karen has not written about her adversity with MItch Leff since it happened - back in early 2010. She has moved on.  

Also, this Anonymous writer of this complaint above described Mitchell Leff as a married man - which is not an authentic description.. Mitch Leff was separated from his ex-wife for close to two year  when he met her - living in a separate apartment. It's all in that Huffingtonpost article - which Anonymous mentions - so Anonymous knows these facts. I  find it misleading that the Anonymous writer did not clearly and honestly describe Mitch Leff as separated. Karen was not a secret mistress. She openly lived with Mitch Leff  in her apartment when they became engaged.

Karens books and coaching have been wonderfully supportive to many, many people!! Her Facebook page is proof of this. She has about 25,000 fans -all of whom regularly write on her page how appreciative they are for Karens books and coaching. You can visit her Facebook fanpage and read all of the many words of praise for Karen for yourself - which are posted daily.  See for yourself how much Karen is helping people live happier lives. My guess:  this post by Anonymous is suspiciously a " jilt-post " written by Mitch Leff . I am guessing this because there is not even one mention here in this post of anything which might honestly show that Karen is  as the Anonymous writer claims a "Fraud, Liar, Cheater, Takes advantage emotionally and financially of clients, Extorts money, No real life coach Internet   Where is there any proof of this? I see absolutely not one thing in this  post which supports this slanderous claim. Thereby what is the motivation for a person to write this post - which is not backed up with anything  - and which mostly mentions an adversity which happened to Karen 2 years ago - which she already openly shared with people? '

As a result, I am  intuiting that this post must have been written by the person involved in Karen's adversity back in 2010  - Mitchell Leff - the person who caused her adversity - the man who abandoned Karen after getting her purposefully pregnant via IVF - who has shown a history of bad behavior. It is the only explanation I can come up with for this bizarre, completely unsupported and 100% misinformed post.

Karen Is The Real Deal

AUTHOR: Denise - (United States of America)

POSTED: Friday, February 03, 2012

I am confused by this complaint by Anonymous. First of all,  Anonymous says Karen is a fraud but then immediately says Karen wrote openly about her situation with her ex-fiance (Mitchell Leff - who abandoned her while pregnant with his child ) on Huffingtonpost. Meaning? Karen was completely honest and genuine with people about the tragedy she went through.  
Anonymous also says Karen should not be dispensing advice, however, her books are heavily researched.  Karen also shares openly about the mistakes shes made when it comes to Prince Harmings (which Mitchell Leff turned out to be) and bouncing back from adversity (which Karen did after Mitchell Leff abandoned her - and after paying roughly 30 thousand dollars to an IVF clinic to purposefully get Karen pregnant with his sperm - which is all on Huffingtonpost!) 
Also this writer describes Mitchell Leff as a married man, when in fact he was separated from his ex-wife when Karen met him.  At the time of their meeting he was in the process of  a divorce for close to 2 years.

I know this because I met both Mitch and Karen when they were engaged - at a weekend retreat at Omega - while they were pursuing the IVF together. They invited me to join them for a dinner - and Mitch spoke enthusiastically about wanting a child with Karen - and was highly affectionate with her. During that dinner, I told Karen I wanted to write children's books - and she generously offered to help me - for free! I was so grateful, I offered to send the couple free World Series tickets. Karen wasn't into baseball - so she suggested Mitchell take the tickets and go with his son and parents.

I was shocked when I heard Mitchell Leff disappeared as soon as Karen got pregnant - after hearing from Mitch himself how excited he was to have a child with Karen. And as far as Karen doing any " jilt blogging," she only wrote about the situation after it was written up by the NY Post and The NY Daily News (to her dismay) and she wanted to correct some of the incomplete stories.  She has not written anything about Mitchs abandoning her since it happened in March/April of 2010. Thats about two years ago!

Karens books and posters - all of her stuff - support so many people!  You can see by the number of followers she has on her Facebook page -25,000 fans - how much she helps people daily. People always write on her page about how grateful they are for her help.  She enjoys personally responding to them as well.  She is the real deal.
I truly dont understand what the writer of this post means by saying Karen is a Fraud, Liar, Cheater, Takes advantage emotionally and financially of clients, Extorts money, No real life coach Internet.  I see nothing in this Anonymous writers post which supports this. Absolutely nothing. 

It really feels as if this post is meant to simply slander Karen -and I have my guesses as to who might be the person to do that. Sadly this complaint seems as if it might have been written by Mitch Leff - since so much of it is about what happened to Karen in 2010, involving Mitch.  If this was written by him, perhaps he needs to read one of Karen's books - so he can Bounce Back! But whoever wrote this post  has not supported their claims in any meaningful way - so this post is completely unfounded.
