Lifetime access is not real. I am one of Kathrin's early students. I purchased her program MBA in 2018. I couldn't afford it at the time and put my payments on a credit card knowing that I'd have lifetime access and every new updated that is offered. Right? Wrong. A new version of MBA was created and "alumni" were invited to pay for the new version. Essentially making the original version of the same course obsolete and you'd have to pay again to get the lifetime access you originally paid for. I'm not sure in what world lifetime access means "until we 'overhaul' the course but call the same thing" but that's pretty scammy to me.

I've debated writing this review for a couple of years. (The podcast Kathrin posted talking about needing to let go of her personal chef is really what broke the entire facade for me… Kathrin ONLY got wealthy by making promises to others on building wealth. This is an MLM where you are at the bottom just giving her money to become wealthy by her telling you how she got wealthy… by you helping her do it.) I've taken numerous of Kathrin's courses over the years. Initially I felt they were helpful (I was optimistic and totally bought into ‘manifestation’..alas!), but I realize now it was just encouraging me to change my mindset and take action in life. The way she markets is that you’ll get something profound that you can’t find reading a book or listening to a free youtuber on getting your shit together. The ‘manifestation’ is through ACTION. Take ACTION on your goals and you’ll build your career, improve your health, grow your business, find love, etc. But this is for the young impressionable women that are struggling financially (that Manifestation Babe and other ‘manifestation coaches’ appeal to): YOU DO NOT NEED TO BUY ANY OF THESE COURSES. In fact, DO NOT BUY THESE COURSES IF YOU DON'T HAVE 3 mos of expenses saved and have started an investment account (this is actually what will set you up for financial success, not ‘manifesting it’). (I know this may fall on deaf ears bc I once believed it all too..) You will make more money putting the money you would spend on ANY of these courses in an index fund, investing in a licensed counselor to work on your mental health, investing in your business (so long as it's not about manifesting), paying off debts, or even a high yield savings account. Skip the courses, make a list about goals, make a list of steps needed to get there. Go. I’d be richer if I hadn’t wasted thousands of dollars on these courses. (Again, yes, I’ll note they encouraged a change in my mindset. Which HAS helped me run a successful business and build financial stability. BUT there was NOTHING the courses gave me that was worth the money I didn’t easily get from free content readily available online. But, damn, she’s good at marketing!) Although, I frame it as a ‘learning opportunity’. Because it was. I took them all, did all the homework, all the things. The ‘secret’ in any of these courses and success is ACTION. You just need to make a plan and take steps every day to get there. Listen to free youtube content about building a business, habit building, building relationships, improving your health, etc. PLEASE learn from my experience and save your money.

I’m convinced at the sheer quantity of 700+ reviews that most 5 star ones are from her “team” which are mostly made up of VA’s. If she has a lot reviews it buries the true 1 star ones. I had done MBA before and sovereign money, which was an actual SCAM. Her paid content is basic and she invested in her free content to get you to pay for the actual paid content, which isn’t even as good. Kathrin is a Shapeshifter who went from posting content about her lifestyle/travel/cars/aspirational social content into order to sell people courses on how they can “ manifest their dream life” to now posting highly emotionally charged content; showing you she’s always going through something hard and how she constantly is coming out on the other side and how you can too. It’s emotional emotionally manipulative and predatory. Do not invest in dime in any of her products, you can easily read the secret, learn neville Goddard, Bob Proctor etc she is simply regurgitating already available information. You don’t need anything or anyone other than yourself to change yourself/your life. It took me following her since 2021 to learn that she lies, contradicts herself, and speaks confidently, which just makes you believe the things she’s saying. She’s constantly having “shamanic deaths “downloads” “awakenings” all of these hot keywords to make you think she’s superior to you or more connected than you. She is absolutely not.

Worth every penny!

Manifestation Babe is a polished house of mirrors: 90% branding, 5% affirmation, and 5% actual coaching value—wrapped in a yacht-filtered Instagram delusion. If you’re cash-strapped, emotionally vulnerable, or trauma-affected, treat this like fast fashion spirituality: looks good, but the seams fall apart fast. She is lacking substance and uses flashy marketing gimmicks to scam you out of your money.

I want to preface this review by saying that when I first discovered Kathrin Zenkina (aka Manifestation Babe), I was exactly the person she targets: financially vulnerable, emotionally raw, and desperately searching for some kind of hope, purpose, and empowerment. Now, years and thousands of dollars later, I can say with full confidence: What Kathrin Zenkina is selling is not personal development. It is weaponized hope trafficking. The first red flag I now see — one I didn’t recognize back then — was how aggressively Zenkina marketed her personal luxury as evidence that her methods worked. Designer bags, luxury villas, $800 spa days, private jet photo ops — all blasted across social media in an endless loop. The message was clear: "Look at my life. I manifested this. You can too — if you buy my programs." What I didn’t fully grasp was that this entire lifestyle was being funded by people like me. People who emptied savings accounts, maxed out credit cards, or even took out loans believing they were investing in a guaranteed path to financial freedom. When I finally dove into her paid courses, my excitement slowly curdled into confusion, frustration, and eventually anger. The content itself was often thrown together at the last minute — she openly admitted during MBA that she was recording modules a week or two in advance. What’s worse is that much of the material wasn’t even hers. I eventually realized that the frameworks she presented were directly lifted from other popular self-proclaimed manifestation and coaching gurus. What frightens me most, looking back, is how dangerously close she dances to unlicensed therapy. Zenkina regularly discusses trauma healing, identity shifting, hypnotherapy, and shadow work — practices that require formal qualifications, clinical expertise, and ethical boundaries she simply does not have. If you’re considering joining Manifestation Babe Academy, Rich Babe Academy, or any of her programs, hear this: Her wealth was not created through manifestation. It was created by extracting money from vulnerable people like you, selling stolen content dressed up in spiritual language, and blaming you for any failure. Everything she teaches can be found online for free — much of it from the original sources she plagiarized. She is not a business genius. She is not a manifestation master. She is, at best, an extremely talented marketer who built a luxury lifestyle on a foundation of false promises and other people’s suffering. I regret every dollar I gave her. But I am grateful to be free. If you’re reading this and still on the fence: Please — keep your money, keep your sanity, and run.

Kathrin Zenkina and MB have changed my life in every area. I may not be a millionaire but now I am just so happy, honestly grateful and happy for all I have. I never really understood spirituality before and how the Universe truly works, but I started this incredible journey right here with Kathrin. She honestly has the best intentions and cares for all her students. I have so much respect for this person who cared enough to create such a thorough course. If you feel the investment is a lot for MBA, consider the monthly installments. This is what I did and I wasn't sure on everything when I was led here but I am so glad I did. Thank you Kathrin, thank you Team MB. xx

Stealing money from "scholarship" recipients. Yes I have been trying to get my money back for going on 4 years now. On August 24, 2021, I paid a $111 deposit through Stripe to Manifestation Babe, LLC for enrollment in the BBIPOC tMBA Scholarship Program. The terms of the program clearly stated that if I completed the program, I would receive a full refund of my deposit. I have the the terms and conditions from 2021 that clearly state this. I've noticed that all the posts they had about the program are deleted/archived off of the socials. I successfully completed the program and submitted the refund request form on March 10, 2022. The company acknowledged receipt of this form. However, they refused to process my refund, citing an internal deadline of March 8, 2022. This deadline was not part of the original agreement or contract and was never agreed to in writing. They claimed they could not process the refund because their payment processor (PayPal/Stripe 🤷🏾‍♀️) would no longer allow them to issue the deposit refund beyond a certain window. They also stated that the form I submitted was needed to collect information such as updated payment details (why do you need updated payment info anyway just refund the money back the same way you received it and if it bounces back you send a check like any other business does). However, this justification is undermined by the fact that they received the form just two days after their own arbitrary deadline and could have contacted me to resolve any processing issues. Furthermore, their own communications contradict the rigid enforcement of this deadline. In an email, a representative wrote that if I had contacted them “a few days after” the deadline, a solution could have been reached. I did, in fact, submit the required form just two days later. Their failure to refund the deposit despite acknowledging my compliance constitutes unfair and deceptive behavior. On December 7, 2024, I sent a formal demand letter by certified mail with signature required, requesting my refund within 10 business days. The company has not responded, and I remain uncompensated. I even sent them a request on PayPal for my refund and they still didn't send my refund. Their claim is they can't refund me because their payment processor won't allow it, but when given an opportunity to refund it they cancelled the request. I believe Manifestation Babe, LLC has violated fair billing and refund practices by withholding funds that are contractually owed to me, while also ignoring their own statements that exceptions could be made. I have also submitted a complaint with the BBB and CFPB regarding this matter.
