hydrating goodness of honey. And the 2-oz bottle makes it the perfect
size for us to have on hand anywhere, any time! We look forward to providing you with more details about this product...

Forever International Super Rally

Well, what with school holidays and three children it has been a while since I have posted but LOTS of news to tell. Well the Forever International Super Rally is ON ! I am so pleased for so many of my friends that have worked hard to qualify for the all expenses paid trip to Denver Colorado and hoping that next year I will be one of them ! Luckily for us left behind there is a live streaming of the whole rally and it has been AMAZING !

I am truly honoured to be working for this Company and the more I see the more I know that I have made the right decision. Firstly we saw an auction for the Forever Giving Charity that saw donations topping 27,000 USD and still climbing . Some generous distributors from all over the world putting their hands in their pockets and have helped to provide 27,000 mosquito nets for the people of Uganda.....saving thousands of lives !

Hundreds of distributors recognised for their hard work, training and speakers galore amongst loads of fun and various acts. Having such a brilliant time watching it.

If any of you think you could be up for this kind of trip amongst MANY other incentives then contact me for a totally no obligation chat. I am so glad that I took that step.

What a busy week

Well it has been a few days since I have updated....note to self to get time management sorted :)

Well the Product launch went really well and as well as being productive and good training for us it was a real laugh too and a good time was had by all. I have to admit to being quite nervous before it started and was a bit like a headless chicken in the hours before. Luckily Paul is a calming influence as always and managed to get me to relax and go with the flow. A huge thank you to all the turned up and supported us and we are looking forward to hearing all the health benefits you have gained as a result of trying the products too :) There were a few people there that had already tried the products and were keen to tell everyone the changes they had seen which was amazing and makes it all worthwhile.

As it is the summer hols my children have had the pleasure of coming to the Centre with me to collect my orders and it has been great as they have been introduced to everyone and feel a bit more a part of it now (especially as they now know where it is mummy keeps nipping off to all the time)

This weekend just past I braved the fear of not knowing anyone by attending my first 'Masterclass' conference. I was so glad that I went. It is so amazing to be around so many positive, focused people. These people have all decided at some point or another to 'take control' of their lives and make them better and have all been prepared to put the work in to do it. Seeing them still so positive AND with their lives changing or changed beyond all recognition is a brilliant way to keep me motivated. I was made to feel so welcome and was really amazed at how keen everyone is to help and support others regardless of how 'high up the ladder' they were. Their 'unshakable' faith and optimism was a privilege to see.
I took 'reams' of notes and left with some real 'nuggets' of inspiration to help me. The speakers were wonderful and varied each with tips, information and their 'own' stories to tell.

I am now looking at 'what next' for my trainings. You are definitely left 'wanting more' and Paul is keen to get going on them too. I already have a couple of people that love the products now interested in changing their lives too. Things are looking good and I am totally committed to making them stay that way.

Feeling inspired !

Well what an evening. I decided to bite the bullet last night, put on my best business attire and go to my first 'solo' business presentation. I was nervous but thought 'this is all about going out of your comfort zone' so I went (even though my new sat nav had not turned up !)
So so glad I went. I met some great people, really helpful and supportive. haha I 'mingled' . You have no idea how hard this was. I have been out of  been out of this kind of industry since the birth of my second son over 8 years ago and felt like a duck out of water but I did it and it feels great :)
The woman on reception and a couple of others from the ordering dept even remembered me from the previous time which made me feel more part of it.
So networking is good and my 'feel the fear and do it anyway' exercise was well worth it.
Only regret was not talking to people MORE as I had to shoot off like Cinderella as the route that I knew was closing for roadworks at 10pm and I would never have managed to get home otherwise haha.
Hopefully my 'beloved' sat nav will be here next week.
Put in my orders there as well and came home at 10pm 'pleased as punch' with myself. Another first ticked off my list.

I think it is kicking in !!

Well, to say I think the Aloe Vera Gel is kicking is would be an understatement !! I felt 'compelled' this morning to leave the comfort of my bed and take my ditzy cocker spaniel out for a run at 8am this morning. I just really needed to get out into the fresh air and have a run round the park. (well dragged if I am brutally honest)
I feel absolutely great this morning and my 10 year old has announced he 'loves' the Berry nectar drink which is a big plus too.
Ordered all our business cards today and also have a very motivated husband working on logos and marketing strategies. What a productive day. I love it when we are 'buzzing' like this. (No pun intended even though I have taken my bee pollen today lol)

What a day !!

Today was hectic and fun................and all about my boys 10th birthday party :)
Wow, what a day. A house full of 10 year old boys was tiring if nothing else, but a good day was had by all.
AND haha Aloe Vera Gelly saved the day on a number of occasions with various scrapes and cuts :)

Off to relax now, and have a well deserved cuppa.

Busy Busy Busy !!!

Well after a successful planning meeting last night with my hubby and my sponsor I have been a busy girl today. Lots ordered, lots arranged and LOTS of interest which is great.
Have arranged our first two 'Product Launch Parties' and all the preparations are coming along nicely. Have made a few contacts as well that are very interested in the 'animal' benefits of the products so already finding it really easy to create a good base of potential clients.
Still churning through all the paperwork and weighing up our options for training but starting to get my head around it all ! My lovely Psychic Development class was a great help the other night in giving me clarity and focus (as well as being VERY relaxing )
Sooooo Tuesday is our first ever product party's !! Bit nervous but at the same time very excited because it is all happening finally. Have sorted out my 'vision board' and Paul & I and the kiddies are sticking up pictures of our 'dreams' and ideal life so we can see it everyday and know WHY we are doing this xxx
