EXECUTIVE DIRECTORS ADVANCEMENTS NEW
Michele & Michael Martin CALIFORNIA Becoming Your Best Self
It was a turning point in her business. Prior to that moment, a series of personal losses led to professional stagnation. Fortunately, her team was there for her as she took necessary time away from her business to do some healing. “The losses broke me, but they never forced me to move faster; they simply loved me along my journey,” she recalls. And when she was ready to rebuild, Michele found that her drive to be a light in the world was even stronger. “A mosaic is broken, but it shines,” she says. She threw herself back into her Melaleuca business. And last May, Michele qualified for the trip to Hawaii. “I had a permanent grin the entire time I was there,” she says. Her next goal is to help the rest of her team achieve their dreams. It’s another mile marker on her journey of self- improvement. When Michele started at Melaleuca, her why was about replacing a six-figure income and having more time freedom, but now she’s focused on giving back. “I want to change people’s lives,” she says. “I just received my biggest check ever, and I will tell you that I felt more joy watching other members of my team open their checks.” For Michele, every day is an opportunity to enhance lives—including her own. “It’s important to continuously evolve and make yourself better, and I think Melaleuca is the perfect vehicle for that because your business is alive just like you are,” she says. “Feed your business and your soul with new possibilities!”
When Executive Director Michele Martin thinks of her future, she is inspired by the woman she wants to become: brave, fiercely loving, and always ready to show up when others need her. “She laughs deeply, believes the impossible is possible, and rises through her fears to accomplish great things,” she says. Melaleuca is supporting Michele through this journey to become the best version of herself—whether that means helping members of her team experience more financial security or introducing customers to safer products. “It’s a privilege to be part of someone’s life, and I love that Melaleuca allows me to pour myself into encouraging others as the leader I choose to be,” she says. Michele’s business-building evolution picked up speed last year when Melaleuca CEO Frank VanderSloot announced the 2019 company-wide Fast Track. Winners had the option of earning a trip to Kauai, a Hawaiian island that holds a significant place in her heart. “I have a lot of history in Hawaii, and when Frank named that location, I put a stake in the ground and told myself, ‘I’m going to do this,’” she says.
“Know this: Melaleuca is going to make you so much better as a human being because we get to help others,” Michele says. “We have to keep growing and learning, and that forces us to be the best version of ourselves.”
