How to get someone out / gently make them see they are wasting their money?
I am not super close with this girl, but we worked together on a team in the past and many of my friends still work with her, and we are in the same small niche community (creative industry).
A few of us are worried about her, she is doing the whole Kangen water MLM, but she is a very sweet naive girl and does not seem to be doing any kind of success at all, I doubt she has even signed one person up, and she has been doing it for about 1.5 years now, including going to 2 overseas seminars.
She sometimes makes posts about how she feels frustrated at her lack of progress in the business, and that she needs to remind herself that she will succeed if she keeps believing etc.
She also recently posted about doing a 3 day, 10 hours per day, "online mindset training" about committing herself fully to the business... and I think it has just got her deeper into the belief that she will eventually succeed if she keeps spending money on the "business".
What can we do?? She is a very sweet girl, I suspect possibly neuro divergent, and she clearly has gained benefits from doing this such as boosting her self confidence and making social media posts (even if she doesn't get likes on them, I have to admit they do look professional and like she is gaining a transferrable skill).
She expressed before her parents doubted her "business" but it seems her mentor used that as fuel for the fire and to hype her up even more to prove them wrong.
I'm worried even more now because she shared a post by a girl from her mentors team, saying that "Good debt is investing loans into your business" so I am worried she is really going in hard with getting loans and spending cash she doesn't have yet.
Sorry for the long post, any advice on how we can gently nudge her into seeing she is wasting a lot of money with no return? I would hate to see her make irreversable damage to her life.
She also makes posts wearing her staff t shirt at work and likening the MLM business to the work she does at the arts company, I'm worried she will try to scout other people from our community, but I don't want to be a grass and report it to the boss.. but filming MLM content at our work place, it's just making me worried.

I need help
I don’t know if this is the proper subreddit but it’s all I can think of. Recently my mom has joined the Bravenly MLM and is refusing to leave, even after showing her a bunch of proof it’s a scam/weird religious cult. Has anyone else been through a similar situation, how did you convince your family member/friend to leave?

More reminders that when you fail at MLM, it is entirely your fault. Don’t blame the MLM model that is designed to make 98% of participants fail, it’s you, because you’re lazy.
