My Story
"Life isn't measured by the number of breaths we take but by the moments that take our breath away!"
Almost 7 months ago 2016 started, with mixed emotions I greeted the first sunrise of a year full of uncertainty! Mum's 5 year long fight against cancer was surely going to create some challenging times during the year. But I grab the moment and hold onto it for dear life... It was the first time in my entire life I was able to hold an 8day old baby white lion cub in my arms. It major as it only took me almost 50 years to do that! Yes this year that just started also mark my big 5zero birth anniversary! Thats surely is something to look forward too! Days after my return to work rumours started that we facing major cost cutting and redundancies. Nobody's jobs were safe... Everyday everybody everywhere were talking about it. Nowhere nobody could hide.... The whole town turned into mourning and for the first time in what felt like ever The normal easter camping did not happen. Everybody cancelled their holiday plans and was waiting in anticipation! We planned for each and every scenario we could think off. Plan A to Z was in place, surely they would not surprise us... Or so we thought! In a town of approx 2000 people where of 1082 was employed by the same company 80 jobs is major. For 5 weeks it dragged on and then on a perfect Wednesday morning the verdict came out! One by one the victims of this disaster was called. Everyone that came out the "pink palace" as we nicknamed the managers offices with a yellow envelope experienced it differently. The more they call the grimmer the atmosphere became! 15 minutes before knock-off time my call came, I recall saying"YES I GOT IT!" Everybody stare at me as if I've lost it! Then in seconds it sank in.... I walked 3 time out the office and back to my desk before I finally drove down to the Pink palace. Could have walked its only about 100m away but I just could not do that!
You might now wonder but where does Scentsy fit into this scrabble of a year.... Shortly after my precious daughter in law started selling Scentsy she told me about the awesome smells... She ask me if I want to join but I was more happy to support her by buying it from her. After my second batch and just after returning from South Africa I decided to Join and make use of the double whammy in February. My idea then was to use the testers and just buy for my own personal use. There is already 5 consultants in this small one horse town of us, so pointless to try and sell it, or that was my thoughts. I never chase the incentives something I would regret for ever....! My second month I just manage to earn enough PRV to stay current, as it was also the month I was made redundant. Then some strange thing happen.... I was melting wax as it was feeling like the only thing that keep me sane and not let me loose grip on life! All of a sudden after a couple off ads on the local buy and sell Facebook page online orders started rolling in. Orders from people I hardly know. I jumped out of my comfort zone and had a mini party and one thing lead to another with a constant PRV of just over the 800 mark since then. I made new friends, and Scentsy saved me form the deep dark black hole of depression that almost got hold of me. Not only did this Scentsy family became my place of safety but the friends and smell of the most beautiful fragrances keep me going when everything else was lost. I owe a big thank you to one and all who support my Scentsy business but also my sponsor and the whole Scentsy family for being there for me! Thank you, thank you, thank you! I'm looking forward to the next six months and record sales and definitely going on the South Africa incentive trip with my Daughter-in-law!
End of 2016 is on our doorstep and its silly season time again, if you need the comfort, care, support, love or real sisterhood in your life. Maybe just because you love Scentsy and can't live without it... Need some extra cash or want to join me in going back to Africa.... Now is the time to join this fantastic family of fragrances! I'm happy to sponsor any person who need the support of a loyal and motivated, team and want to join our Scentsy family, anywhere in the world Scentsy could be sold!
I want you all to remember....
If ever there is a tomorrow when we not together. You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem and smarter than you think. But most importantof all, if we're apart You will always be in my Heart❤️
