I offer that as pushback as to why she acted like that.
I don't agree with how she acted
However, the past year had been a mfkr for her
She started out the year all on SM looking and sounding the part of successful brand owner, had a book tour, plans to expand.....etc.
Then "Robbing Peter to pay Paul" caught up with her. And the finances became public. All sorts of videos and thinl pieces and etc have been posted about her these past 3 months...... so I can imagine shes been feeling all kinds of stress.
But she posted a response
“Accountability doesn't require perfection, it requires ownership,” Uncle Nearest's Fawn Weaver said in a video response to the backlash.

(Apparently she was doing a round of bottle signing events and in the midst of trying to get into the location she says ole boy suddenly appeared in front of her.)
“As I stepped out of the car, I would have stopped several times for photos. When I turned, a man I didn’t know was standing directly in my path, inches from my face, no smile, no greeting, just a blank stare. He asked if I knew him from school more than 35 years ago. He mentioned a middle school and two other people.”
“I went to three different schools between the sixth and the ninth grade and graduated from a different one entirely. So I was startled, and so was everyone around me. Security was close, but I’ve always asked him to stand back unless I believe I’m in danger [because]
I like to speak to everyone, hug everyone, make people feel seen,” she continued. “So instead of calling security, I tried to move us out of that moment that I couldn’t fully read, and I did that with a joke.”
