1. Where were you born and raised; current city; family; hobbies; past business highlights...
I was born and raised in Decatur, IL and moved to Des Moines, IA in 1993. I have two beautiful daughters and three awesome grandchildren with one on the way. In my spare time, I love to write poems and spend time with family and friends.
2. How have you grown or personally developed since joining PlanNet?
I have grown and personally developed because of the great leadership I have. I make sure I apply duplication in addition to staying plugged in and building up my own awareness, knowledge and skills to pass along to my Team.
3. What drives you; what motivates you?
Having a Purpose with a Passion and being successful. I think all the time about what I can do differently to be a better leader, in addition to helping others gain financial freedom and travel the world. This sometimes causes me to sacrifice my sleep, but I know the end result will be priceless.
My family motivates me as I have a desire to provide for them, as well as coaching others – there’s nothing better than seeing others win.
4. Who would you consider a role model and why?
The first person I thought of was my Mom, but it was placed on my heart to share that Director Debra Bond is definitely a role model. When I began this business we met through my Sponsor, Tawnita Hislop, via Facebook. When I met Debra in person at the 2019 Convention, she treated me as if she had known me all her life. What you see with Director Bond is what you get – she is a phenomenal leader, she doesn’t hesitate to help others at any given time even during the wee hours she should be sleeping, she encourages you, pushes you, stretches you, provides constructive criticism, she has a big heart, loves her children and is a HUGE blessing to her team and treats us just like family. She pours into us constantly because she wants to see all of us win, and all of these characteristics within one person are very rare to find and it sincerely makes me want to be a better me!
5. The three words that describe you best are:
Loyal, Leader, and Inspirational.
6. If you had some sound advice to give to anyone what would it be?
Life isn’t easy but every morning you wake up, it’s a blessing. The obstacles that you face in life are preparing you for something greater so don’t give up! We all have flaws and growth areas, but in life as well as business, you have to be coachable, listen, make changes where necessary and not focus on the roadblocks, because when you do you allow yourself to stay stuck. We are all uniquely and wonderfully made. Live life on your terms. Invest in YOU and never give up on YOU…the best is yet to come and remember that it is all in God’s timing.
7. What does your life look like five years from now?
Retired from my full-time job even if that isn’t the projected date, because God has the final say, and a Six-Star Director. I will own a dream home and a dream car in addition to doing more traveling and spending more time with family and friends.
