I am in awe of this wonderful company called Arbonne. Through my Arbonne experience,
I have learned all about living in abundance and helping others do the
same. I have also been able to reach goals in my life that were at one time inconceivable.
I am forever indebted to ENVP Sandy Poe for bringing me the NutriMinC ®
RE 9® anti-aging products to try in my home. From the moment I used them, I loved
what they did to my skin. At the time, I was searching for a teaching job, while
working two other part-time jobs. I already had my hands full, so I did not have any
desire to join her in business with a company that I had never heard of. But after
hearing the passion and the enthusiasm in her voice when she spoke about this
amazing opportunity, I said, “yes,” to Arbonne.
My husband and I were struggling financially and became just like many others with
multiple jobs barely surviving from paycheck to paycheck. Our situation was not
working for us. We never saw each other and rarely saw the children. That was
enough to show me that something had to change! Even though I signed on with
Arbonne, I have to admit that I was skeptical in the beginning. But once I plugged
into the system, overcame my fears and got busy, it actually began to work. I love
to show others that if they step out of their comfort zones and do what most will not
do, then they, too, can live the life of their dreams. I shudder to think of what my life
would look like today, if I had not made the decision to join this business. My main
goal for wanting to succeed with my Arbonne business was to make my kids proud.
Because of the struggles they saw and experienced while growing up, it was very
important to me to show them with faith, perseverance and the right opportunity,
broken dreams can be mended. I now have a legacy to leave my children.
You cannot grow personally, if you have only had smooth sailing throughout your
life. Arbonne, like life, has not come without its challenges. But challenges are what
build character. During my Arbonne journey, my faith in God, along with my determination,
drive and desire, kept me going. I decided a long time ago, not to take
myself too seriously. The mistakes I have made on my journey have served as a lesson
to me and others to keep moving forward and never look back. Courage grows
in direct correlation to the size of your determination to accomplish your dreams.
No one else can do it for you. I, myself, have had to dig deep and find the courage
to step up to the plate and be determined to do whatever it took to reach the prize.
In the process, I realized that my dreams and goals would eventually come true. I
am now determined to help others on my team to realize they, too, can accomplish
great things with Arbonne.
My first month of NVP qualification was in April 2006, which coincided with NTC.
The event was so amazing and the momentum we gained from it pushed us to first
step NVP. But when May hit, we were suddenly swimming against the current. At
NTC, I learned that to believe is to see. That simple thought became my mantra,
which ultimately carried me through May. Despite the setbacks and the fact that others
were advising me that I needed to have a contingency plan just in case I did not
finish this month, I never gave up. I knew in my heart of hearts that it was our time
to become a Nation. So, I just kept focused on the simple thought until we reached
our goal at the end of May.
