Hey there!
Welcome to my little corner of the internet! If you’re new here, let me introduce myself. I’m a 40-something mom of teens, a seasoned network marketer, a lover of all things Disney, a gardening enthusiast, and a craft and foodie fan living in beautiful Colorado Springs. My journey in direct sales has been nothing short of an adventure, and I’m excited to share my experiences, tips, and stories with you.
Finding My Path in Direct Sales
No one tells you how people around you will react to your decision to start a business with a direct sales company. It’s like announcing you’re marrying someone no one likes or having a baby when everyone thinks it’s too soon. You brace yourself for the hesitant smiles, the “congratulations” that feel like they come with a side of skepticism, and the well-intended but probing questions that make you second-guess your decisions. But here’s the thing: every successful business journey starts with a moment of doubt and a leap of faith.
I’ve built three successful network marketing businesses with Perfectly Posh, The Body Shop at Home, and Jordan Essentials. Through the ups and downs, I’ve learned that the key to success lies in resilience, passion, and a touch of humor.
Why Jordan Essentials?
Jordan Essentials has been a game-changer for me. Their products are carefully designed, focusing on wellness and using natural ingredients. From their magnesium lotion, which helps soothe muscles after a long day (especially useful after wrangling teenagers or spending hours in the garden!), to their essential oils, which keep my home smelling divine, there’s something for everyone.
Life in Colorado Springs
Living in Colorado Springs has added a new dimension to my life. The stunning landscapes inspire my gardening projects, and the community here is incredibly supportive. Whether hiking in the mountains, attending local craft fairs, or simply enjoying a coffee at a local café, I find so much joy in the little things.
Balancing Business and Passion
Balancing a thriving direct sales business while indulging in my passions like gardening, crafts, and exploring new foodie adventures isn’t always easy, but it’s enriching. Here are a few tips that have helped me:
- Set Realistic Goals: Understand that growth takes time. Celebrate small victories along the way.
- Stay Organized: Use planners and digital tools to keep track of business tasks and personal projects.
- Embrace Flexibility: One of the perks of direct sales is its flexibility. Use it to your advantage to balance work and play.
- Build a Support Network: Surround yourself with supportive friends, family, and fellow entrepreneurs. They can offer advice, encouragement, and a listening ear.
- Prioritize Self-Care: It’s crucial to take time for yourself. Whether it’s a relaxing bath with Jordan Essentials products or diving into a book, find moments to recharge.
Motivational but Real
I believe in staying motivated but keeping it real. It’s not about toxic positivity or pretending everything is perfect. It’s about acknowledging the challenges, learning from them, and celebrating the journey. Like any business, direct sales come with its share of rejections and setbacks. But it also offers incredible opportunities for personal and professional growth.
