The Sound of Losing
Written by Parsons Green
Megan Coleman boldly declared that in 2025, she would earn the top director trip to Budapest. She has earned five previous trips, but has always taken the cash. This trip will be different because it is for her dad. Her favorite memory as a child is watching The Sound of Music with her dad. And Salzburg Austria is a quick 8 hour plane or train trip away from Budapest.
A couple of months into the year, Megan posted a list of things you could do to help her. #5 on the list is prayer, even though Megan admits most people would think God doesn’t care.
Megan took a break from posting about Budapest to remind everyone she’s still trying to earn the NSD title. (At the time she posted this she had two directors in her downline)
Mary Kay rewards Megan’s wholesale orders by inviting her to teach a class to the Norwegian directors when they are in Dallas for training.
If you help her, she will send you a postcard from Budapest.
She photoshopped her and her husband in front of the Sound of Music Gazebo. I’d love to hear his thoughts on Mary Kay.
Towards the end of June, Megan admitted she and her team were $117,700 in whole sale orders away from the goal. But she’s got a goal poster and is confident they will shut this down.
As the month ended, Megan realized she was nowhere close to the $650,000 retail ($375,000 wholesale) needed for the trip. She wanted to finish the year by passing the $500,000 retail mark. She also wanted to sign up 14 new consultants to earn the queens court of sharing bee. She promised her toddler a power wheels excavator if she achieved this. For his sake, I hope that he had no clue she had told anyone this.
Jamie Taylor beat Megan to the punch on posting where she ended up on June 30. Wonder why Megan was slow to report? She only reached the $450,000 unit club. She will not be going to Budapest.
Luckily, the 2026 Top Director Trip will be to Montreux Switzerland! Like Budapest, it’s approximately an 8 hour trip from there to the Sound of Music tour. I have a feeling that 2026, the hills will be alive with the sound of begging.

She acts as if the only way she can travel to Salzburg is if Mary Kay sends her. This is crazy talk. Buy a plane ticket and go! I cannot wrap my head around this nonsense.
Yes, it would probably cost her less that way!
Not to mention how much less it will cost her and her downline! Just think of the cheering she would hear from her own downline if she posted the following…
“I am going to Salzburg, and you guys don’t have to do a thing! I am paying for it out of my own pocket, and will park my phone while I am gone, so you won’t be hearing from me for 10 whole days while I spend some sweet family time away from my business!
Oh…and I talked my dad into joining us! And I am buying his ticket too!”
Now THIS is what success sounds like.
Her story about her dad.. totally didn’t expect her to say “so he can see pics of ME..” hahaha wowwww I guess I figured she was taking him but why would I assume she’d do something so nice?
This is so humiliating for her. At least it should be. She should be humiliated. But.. she’s not is she?
Not out loud, anyway.
“Jamie Taylor beat Megan to the punch on posting where she ended up on June 30. Wonder why Megan was slow to report? She only reached the $450,000 unit club. She will not be going to Budapest.”
Wow, Jamie really is a vicious little [CENSORED], isn’t she?
Not that Megan’s any better for promising her son something she had to know she’d probably never deliver. Or for yammering on about her father and how this trip would mean everything to him… when he wouldn’t even be going. It was never about ihr Vater; it was always just about her. Sitting through TSoM every night was probably torture for him and only did it to keep her occupied (seriously, that movie’s like 3 hours long. I can’t sit through the whole thing now, let alone when I was a kid).
Megan’s just as high on her own farts as the rest of them, and considering she missed her goal by a “mere” 50 large, I’m happy to unleash a giant Nelson Muntz “HA-ha!” at her. Repeatedly. To the tune of “Lonely Goatherd”.
Missed her *second goal by 50. Missed original goal by a whopping 200 shewwww
And yes, Jamie, that was deeeeeeply low. I bet they all hate Jamie. I bet they all hate each other. It’s all a front. They’re all miserable. They’ll never admit it to themselves or their husbands though. To announce such a fail is so mean. Let it ride a couple of days. You’d think Jamie would understand that considering how many years it took her to finish national and how many trips she didn’t earn.
Yeah… watching TSoM every night, day in and day out, had to be rough. Ain’t no way you were watching that entire movie every single day.
Fun fact: I have an alpine jewelry box from my mom that looks like a chalet and plays “Lonely Goatherd” when you open the top. I love it.
Yodel-lay-ee-yodel-lay-ee-ooooo
It’s so very nauseating to read. As was stated, she could’ve gone, and taken her dad, for a LOT LESS than the MK “free” price.
