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

Meeting Booked !
Well, have our first 'planning meeting' booked for tomorrow where hopefully with the help of our sponsor we can start to really get things moving. Really looking forward to it and we are already making lots of plans and notes.
People have been SO helpful and friendly so far. The support we are receiving is great and even friends that are not FLP involved but just MLM people or business people in general have offered help and advice. Restoring our faith in human nature :) :)
My good friend Natalie Collinson has been especially helpful and I thank her so much....Nat you're a star xx
Oh and I have now (much to Paul's astonishment) managed to set up our Forever website so more exciting times. Feel free to have a look
http://www.alwaysaloe.myflpbiz.com
Seriously though I feel 'alive' and motivated for the first time in a LONG time believe me. This all just feels right and I know it does for Paul too. Off to my 'Psychic Development class' tonight for a bit of well deserved relaxation. This is the life xxx

Setting Up
Wow, had great fun trying to navigate setting up our Facebook page and linking everything in. BIG learning curve for me at the moment but loving every minute of it. Now am very impressed that I have a brilliant Facebook page that I can update every day to let everyone know all about the products and offers available.
Feels great doing something that I actually enjoy......makes the motivation levels soar :)
Can HIGHLY recommend the Aloe Deodorant stick and the Shampoo and Conditioner. Have been testing them out and for someone like me (my husband not so much as he has a lack of any hair lol) they are brilliant. I have particularly sensitive skin and fine hair and tend to stick to a product once I find one that is OK for me. These are 'wonderful' . I mean I knew they would be good but they surpass ALL my expectations. Having so much fun testing everything in my kit. Makes us both feel like we have a better knowledge of the products giving us a genuine ability to tell you all about them from first hand experience. (Plus we will end up very healthy and wealthy for it which is an added bonus !)

Well Here We Go !!!
WELL, here we go. We are now officially on our way with Forever and I for one can't wait to get started.
Both Paul and I attended our first 'Business Presentation meeting' on Thursday and 'WOW' is all I can say. We had a great time and were left amazed by both the products AND the brilliant opportunity that was presented to us there. These people are great. We saw a few speakers and heard their stories and suffice to say we know we have made the right decision and can't wait to get going.
Feeling really optimistic as already using the products already I know how great they are and also as an Holistic Therapist this opportunity is based around everything I am passionate about and that I believe in. Hoping now that our change of life and coming journey will help others of you to make that change too.
Here's to maximum health and unlimited wealth !!!
