EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR 6 NEW ADVANCEMENTS

her team often create together by video conference to foster camaraderie and maximize creativity. “It’s easier to orient yourself around your goals if you can visualize them in front of you,” she explains. “If you don’t have things you want to run away from, then focus on the things you want to run toward, such as taking your family on vacation or becoming debt-free.” According to Laura, everyone can benefit from The Wellness Company, so she doesn’t discriminate when she shares Melaleuca’s products and the business opportunity. “Never write someone off because you think they don’t need what we have here,” she says. “A lot of people aren’t open about their struggles (I know I wasn’t), so just assume that everyone has a need for healthier products or extra income.” And if you’re worried about alienating friends and family by sharing your enthusiasm for Melaleuca products?
