There are so many people who want to see you fail. There are so many people who want to see you fail. 

(Read that again!)

I know, I have been there.

Guess what? I do what I want because it’s my life NOT theirs✌🏻 

The sooner I realized that, the more opportunities that opened up! It was a turning point in my life that changed everything!! 

No longer trapped by the opinions of others. I was FREE to do what I finally wanted. I wake up everyday, ready to face the world and kick some a**. 

So STOP listening to others opinions, who cares???!!! Go for it and prove them WRONG👊🏻 

Start that business. 
Take that job or promotion. 
Go on that vacation.
Buy that house. 
Get that car. 
Do you🙌🏻

I use to wash my hair every single day!!! No one has time for that, plus it’s really bad for your hair.

Now I wash twice a week and have more time to do stuff like, hike😂

No matter how hard it is to let go, if you want to be a better you then breakup with those people who are holding you back from greater things! 

Is there someone that is always negative about your dreams and ideas? Break up with them

Is there someone always making you feel bad about your accomplishments? Breakup with them

Are there people who don’t support your goals? Breakup with them

You need positive people around to grow. If they don’t add value to your life, breakup with them👊🏻 

But for real🙌🏻
I am thankful for this business and these products I am thankful for this business and these products❤️ 

If you haven’t heard my story let me tell you. 

In July 2019, the top of my head was going bald. I was having scalp breakouts, sneeze attacks after my showers and red itchy eyes. Never did I think it was my shampoo. 

A friend of mine suggested Monat because it helped her daughter. I said why not, at this point I was so frustrated and just didn’t know what else to do. 

A week later my scalp breakouts had stopped, no more red eyes and sneezing after my shower, my hair was super soft! 

19 months later my hair is full again!! No more bald spots and I haven’t had a breakout since July 2019👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 

These products are amazing! My hair is so healthy. That’s why I sell Monat. They helped me and I want to help others. Simple as that❤️
Just me and the mountains today🙌🏻 Did you j Just me and the mountains today🙌🏻

GOOD GUT HEALTH What’s the difference in Probio GOOD GUT HEALTH

What’s the difference in Probiotics and Prebiotics?

Probiotics is good bacteria found in certain foods or supplements. Prebiotics are types of fiber that feed the friendly bacteria in the digestive system.

Let’s talk about having a healthy gut for a moment.

When you Google benefits of Probiotics this is some information that will come up…

•	Improve immune function

•	protects against bad bacteria to prevent infections

•	promotes healthy digestion

•	Reduces inflammation

•	Helps with skin conditions

•	in women they can prevent yeast infections and UTI’s

•	

That’s just to name a few things and what the benefits are for taking probiotics. For one year, I have been taking probiotics consistently. I can tell a difference in my overall health. I stopped getting sick as often, but when I do get sick I recover MUCH quicker!

We all want stronger immune systems right?

One of Monat’s capsules is 5 million CFU of live and active microorganisms (of good bacteria)!! Monat balance is a dual layer prebiotic + probiotic complex capsule in one, with a unique , delayed release technology and a custom herbal blend including turmeric, ginger and rice bran. (VEGAN)

Fun Fact: Did you know it takes your gut about 6 months to recover from one single dose of antibiotics? Yep!

Yes🙌🏻 We take a few mini vacations per yea Yes🙌🏻 

We take a few mini vacations per year with our kids. We don’t do presents at Christmas. We value our time together as a family. 

We don’t really buy a lot of “stuff” but we do travel often. It’s all in your priorities. 

I had a “friend” once say that I live on a permanent vacation. We are no longer friends but it got me thinking. I love that quote, “build a life that you don’t need a vacation from” or something like that. 

I wake up every morning ready to start my day. I am ready to work all three of my businesses. I look forward to each mini vacation. I enjoy my family time. I freakin love my life y’all. 

If you knew the childhood I had, you wouldn’t believe how far I have come to get to where I am today. 

It took hard work, relationship building, letting go of the past and determination. 

So yes, I value our family time because I want my kids to know they always have a place in our family. A place they can forget about the world and just relax.

The new Purifying vinegar shampoo contains apple cider vinegar and potent AHA's to help reduce excess oil, buildup and environmental pollutants that causes lackluster hair. 

The new scalp Purifying scrub is the perfect way to dissolve dead skin cells, product build up and environmental pollutants while balancing moisture and leaving strands clean and fresh.
