Deciding to quit the stable offerings of corporate life to venture into the unknown was not<br />
a decision to be taken lightly. After 20 years in IT and Telecommunications as a marketer<br />
and commercial project manager, 45-year-old Michelle Goh Seok Imm decided to call it<br />
quits and pay heed to a greater calling – network marketing.<br />
“<strong>The</strong> 9 to 6 pm rigid work platform started to feel stifling and I needed a break,” explains the married<br />
Terengganu-born. “Joining Young Living as a distributor was truly by chance. I merely wanted to break<br />
away from the conventional work platform.”<br />
According to Michelle, the company did not have an office in Malaysia at the time she started out.<br />
“I wish I could say I knew what I was doing when I joined,” she divulges. “Honestly, I did not realise the<br />
impact Young Living would have on my life till much later.”<br />
