“You have to groww beyon your comfort zone and do the things you normally would not be willing to do.”
Whoever said you can't have your cake and eat it too obviously has never heard of Arbonne. Arbonne has given me the best of both worlds: A successful career with financial freedom and an opportunity to be with my two children each and every day. I couldn't ask for anything more.
When I was introduced to Arbonne three and a half years ago, becoming a Regional Vice President was the furthest thing from my mind. All I really knew then was that I loved the products and just wanted to get them at wholesale price. Only later did I embrace the opportunity. God would open a door that would lead me on a great journey with Arbonne. Having traveled that road to personal growth and professional success, I can truly say that I’ve found myself and achieved the most incredible feats which I would have never dreamed possible.
I truly believe God places people in your life to allow miracles to happen. I was fortunate to have worked as a teller supervisor at a local bank alongside Stacy Thorn when she was just discovering Arbonne herself. She first told me about the company and Arbonne Clear Advantage Acne System. At that point in my life, I was desperately battling my chronic acne problem with Accutane®. After 12 years of doing this, I was willing to try anything different. Arbonne Clear Advantage produced excellent results and changed my life within a few short weeks. I’m happy to say that I have not been back to the dermatologist since. The process of clearing up my skin naturally without having to use synthetic medication was just the first of many gifts that Arbonne would bless me with. What I didn’t know was that there was more to come.
I also had severe hormonal imbalance that affected me emotionally and physically. This imbalance also led to challenges with conceiving a baby. Soon after I was introduced to Prolief Natural Balancing Cream my body began to restore its natural balance. Eventually, I noticed my physical and emotional challenges had seemed to disappear leading the way for my two precious miracles— the birth of our daughter Ashley and then subsequently our son Nicklaus.
After Ashley was born, I knew that I wanted to stay at home to raise my children. That’s when I realized that the business opportunity with Arbonne was the answer to my prayers. After all, Arbonne was batting 1000 so far, and there was no reason to think that the opportunity wouldn’t be a success as well. So I set my mind on doing the business, with a company that had never let me down and was behind me all the way. As I learned the business, I learned some amazing things about myself. At first, I was petrified at the thought of holding my own classes, and terrified of any form of public speaking. But my faith in God and my belief in Arbonne were the driving forces that gave me the courage to change. I like to say “Grow as You Go.” You can do anything you want to do with this company, and that’s what makes it so wonderful. As long as you are willing to grow and realize your self-worth, the sky’s the limit. Once I overcame my fears and dove in headfirst, I gained confidence with every class. Soon it got to the point where I looked forward to each new class and the chance to share the incredible Arbonne opportunity.
The secret to success is simply in sharing this gift with others. You may have to grow beyond your comfort zone and do things you would not be willing to do otherwise, but it is well worth the price of helping people change their lives. There is nothing more worthwhile than watching people grow and reach their goals; or, witnessing them gain confidence with every passing class only to see the light in their eyes as they embark on their own personal journey to success. Everyone deserves to have the best of both worlds.
I have so many to thank for their support. Above all, I would like to credit God for His faithfulness in giving me the strength to conquer my doubts and fears. There were many times I was unsure if this was what He wanted for me. He put the desires in my heart and that, by far, outweighed everything else.
Next, I want to thank my husband Mark for being supportive. It took you a while to see the full potential but when you got it … you were amazing. I would not want to share this moment with anyone but you. I love you. To my two babies, Ashley and Nicklaus: You two are my number one reason for doing this. I love you both more than anything in this world. I feel so blessed to have you both in my life.
To my mom: Thank you for instilling in me such a great work ethic. To my mother-in-law: What would I do without you in my life? I would not be where I am with Arbonne without the help of you both. Thanks for taking care of the loves of my life while I was at trainings, classes or other Arbonne functions. I love you both.
I want send a very special thank you to NVP Stacy Thorn. You are not only one of my dearest friends but you are an amazing leader. Because of you, our family will never be the same. I am able to teach my children that when you work hard, everything is possible. This truly is the business of changing lives. I love you for that.
