10. Picking up the pieces
This podcast is now the subject of a legal complaint by Nicole Daedone, Rachel Cherwitz, OneTaste Incorporated, the Institute of OM LLC and OM IP Co. In 2018, Bloomberg Businessweek published an article by reporter Ellen Huet exposing the toxic culture within One Taste. Shortly afterwards, the FBI started making enquiries into the company over allegations of sex trafficking, prostitution and violation of labour laws. The company has since closed all its physical locations and is no longer offering in-person courses. Co-founder Nicole Daedone had stepped down as CEO the previous year – and after the FBI started making enquiries, she vanished. Former One Taste members tell us about their disappointment that the company has not responded better to the allegations against it. And we hear how many people struggled to put their lives back together after their time at One Taste. If you’ve been affected by any of the issues raised in this programme, help and advice are available at bbc.co.uk/actionline.
