What is your mission?
To inspire and empower families to live healthier lives.
What three words would you use to describe your success journey? Please share why you chose these words.
- Perseverance – it takes blood, sweat and tears to build a successful biz
- Transparency – as I have shared openly with people, they have been moved and inspired
- Love – I’ve had to love what I do enough to keep going, and the reason that I love what I do, is because I truly love the people I am doing it for
What is your definition of success?
Finding joy in the journey – enough to fill the empty bank account when times are dry, and enough to relish the God moments that come from learning that success is a road, not a destination!
What is your most successful achievement?
Finally inspiring my 3 yr old daughter(almost 4 yr old!)to potty train!
Seriously? Making my almost 15 yr marriage work and become stronger after painful struggles, loss of a child, divorce, custody battle, near-fatal sickness, & redemption of it all through God’s grace and mercy!
What scriptures do you find useful to help you with staying in your success zone?
Ephesians 5:17: “Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the Lord’s will is.”
Phil 1:6: “being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus”
What tips do you have for someone struggling with becoming successful?
It takes so much investment – time, effort, money, sacrifice of favorite things (for a time!) and more. You have to be willing to invest these things regularly to become truly successful.
