My Story
My story is like any others! I was just a normal person who spent life removing myself and being just "for" others, my children, my husband, my family! While that is amazing in and of itself, I really started paying attention to myself and how I have been come almost a recluse in my own home. See my husband is a combat vet and together we have spent many hours going to the doctors, and fighting to get him the care he needed that I forgot about ME. I know that just sounds weird, right? Well when your a caregiver first, you forget that your also a woman, a WIFE, instead of JUST the caregiver.
We went into a program in LA and there they told ME alot about myself. That I had been using my personal strength to push everyone away. That I was not only using that strength to keep my husband and family getting the proper care, but I was using it to keep myself hidden away so that I would not get hurt anymore or have to connect with anyone else. I had gotten to a point where I felt my life was just hopless and that nothing would ever get any better. Some would have said that I was even to a point of being close to suicidal. So I gave myself a challange! I HAD to get out of that rut we all get into and seems to take hold of us!
In this challange I had to find something that would MAKE me go out and meet new people, MAKE me interact and open up again! Scentsy has been my savings grace in that! Everyday I meet someone new whos either NEVER heard of Scentsy OR who LOVES it and wants to talk about how its changed THEIR life! I have made so many great relationships since being with scentsy that if they told me tomorrow that I that it was going to a million dollars a bar, that I would STILL be every bit a part of this company as I am now! I wont go back to being that woman who locked herself away from the world!
Now I attend events, I host parties, I meet great people, and I have found an outside family in my team that I cherish more then anything! These women have been at my back every step, answering questions , lifting me up, catching me when I have fallen, or had a panic attack over going to my first event!
Honestly looking back I really am that person that thinks "why did I hesitate to do this". Fear was a powerful thing and when I stopped letting it control me, now I fly!!
