Age:
I am 39 years old
How many kids?
I have two teenage daughters
Where do you live?
I live in southeastern Ohio on 80 acres with my husband, my girls, our animals,
and my parents live just down the lane on the same property. It is a very small town with no stop light.
How long have you been married?
My husband and I have been married almost 19 years and we have known each other since we were 5 years old.
What business do you do?
I grew up with my mom at home and I wanted to always do the same for my children.
I am a work at home mom with an international pharmaceutical wellness company. I do a couple of different things working the business. First, I educate others about the toxins and that are in everyone’s homes today and how they are and have been affecting the health of families for years. Many people assume that the things that they use on a daily basis are safe. However, the Environmental Protection Agency as well as many other health and safety websites are speaking out how the inside of our homes are more polluted then the outside. These toxins are being found to be a cause in birth defects, allergies, asthma, ADD, ADHD, depression, cancers, and many other illnesses. These toxins are not just in cleaners. They are in make-up, shampoos (Johnson & Johnsons baby shampoo is one of them, and many other things that we would never guess to be harmful.
With the company that I work along side of, they have over 350 products to replace everything that people use in their homes. Everything to clean your home, bath and body line, skin care line, and also everything for ones medicine cabinet. Also, their cleaning supplies come in concentrated form to save money and many are also real versatile. So, I help set up customers accounts as well as help those that would like to work from home as well. We are with the BBB and are a good reputable company with scientist and doctors on our staff providing safer alternatives.

What made you pick the business that you are doing?
When I was choosing to look for something to do from home, I did a lot of research and homework looking into companies. After fully checking out all about the Four Point Group, and our partner company, I was very impressed with the compensation plan and the major support that the Four Point Group provides. I was so impressed with the products that even if I didn’t work the business, I would still be a customer. So combining all these things together I feel like I’m doing something good for others, good for my family and its also been a lot of fun and I am friends with some wonderful people.
What are your favorite hobbies?
I am counting down the days till spring.
I love working out in my flower beds and adding to my landscaping. I also like to read when I have the time and I also love to vintage shop. I have several antiques/vintage items in my house.
Do you find it hard to balance working from home and having to run a
household?
I found it a challenge at first. I had to sit my kids down and explain to them that just because I am at home doesn’t always mean that I am available. I have also learned that you really do need to make yourself out some type of a schedule or keep a calendar of your daily or weekly things that you need to do. If its wrote down, you can see it and cross it off as you go. You do have to be organized with your work at home business and your other tasks or you will feel overwhelmed. Organization and explaining things to your family about what you do is a must.
Do you take time for yourself everyday?
I really try to, even if its just for 15 minutes. Taking time out for yourself is just as important as anything else that you do. You need to stay in touch with your own needs and also provide your mind with clarity. It is very important for your health, your business, your family, your being, to take time each day to focus, regroup or rest or do something that you enjoy. You need to try to maintain a balance so nothing suffers.
What is the most challenging thing working from home that you have had to
face?
I would have to say again, working on having some balance. It can be challenging, and things won't always go as planned, but its best to keep that as one of your goals.
How did you overcome that challenge?
My husband! Plain and simple. He seen that my heart is really into my work and that I need support and help around the house at times. The kids help as well, but he has been my rock. He helps with things and also doesn’t expect me to do everything. We work together in all areas of our life so one is always there to lean on the other when needed.
What is the BEST thing about working from home?
I would never do anything else.
I love working from home.
I love that I can get up, do what I need to do, work when I want, play in the yard when I want, and anything else I choose to do. There is so much freedom working from home in so many ways.
Some of the things that we don’t do with this company: We do not sell, stock, ship or deliver anything and that was some things that I was not interested in doing. That also makes it one of the best things about what I do.
What advice would you give to someone who is thinking about working from
home?
My advice is that if you do not love what you are doing, you’re not going to do it or you won’t do it for very long. You HAVE to believe in what your doing, you have to truly love it and be passionate about it and you have to really work hard at it and keep in mind what your goals are and what you want results to be. You’re going to have bad days or things go wrong just like any business. You have to want it.
One of my favorite quotes are: “If you think you can, or can’t, your right.” Stay focused and do the best that you can and never ever give up.
Any specials that you would like others to know about?
Every new month that comes we have promotions announce either for the customers, the business builders or both. We often have web specials on a monthly basis to help with your business or in other areas as well.
Working with this company is always fun, it provides so many things in all areas of your life. You just have no idea until you do it and get involved. It’s amazing!
Upcoming Chats or Online Parties that you are hosting:
I have seen where you can host on-line parties and so forth. We have on-line presentations as well as having them on the phone. I’ve never visited an on-line party before, I think I’d like to check into that and see what it is all about.
Tell us a little bit about where you live, what you like to do on
your downtime with your family and how using your products or services could
help us.
I live out in the country. It is so very peaceful. I love walking around in our woods and seeing the wildlife and all the different wild flowers or just going out into one of our fields and taking in the sunshine and the tranquility. We also have a 2 acre pond, and many walking trails. It’s a little heaven here on earth to us. My time with my family is usually being outside when the weather is good, working on projects together or just a night in the living room with some good food and a movie. In the summer there are several times when we build big fires outside and just sit out there relax, and maybe cook out.
As far as our products and services go, we have so much to choose from. They are all things that we all use every day, and they are safe, better and save money as well. And you can build a really nice business working too or just being a customer has its rewards as well. There are no risks, no contracts and its very simple to shop, earn an income and make a HUGE difference in your life. We also have many services such as internet, phone plans, wireless, mortgage and vehicle programs, health care and prescription discounts, they are always adding to what we already have and even customers can get Thank You checks.
There are just so many benefits for your health or for you to earn an income that would far surpass your expectations. Our main goal over the next few years is to be able to have my husband quit his full time job. He is also helping me work the business as well.
The health reasons are the number one reason why people just look into our company and just see what all that they have to offer. Again, there are no risks and anyone can benefit from this.
Another reason why I picked this to do from home is that even though my husband has a good job, a union company and good money, there have been times where lay-offs, strikes or potential breaking up the union in the future is possible. Thinking about that happening could turn our world upside down. We have worked many years to have what we have and knowing that it may be at risk someday is NOT a secure feeling. We know that by us doing this that we are preparing ourselves for a secure future and even financial freedom. There is no ceiling to what you can earn with this company and we know that in these days that we live in, that we have to take care of ourselves.
