Mike Brandow & Lauretta Kloha MICHIGAN Building Happiness Together

Lauretta and Mike are excited to learn and grow together and with their team. They have a bright outlook for the future. “I’ve had this feeling all year that Convention 2020 is going to be an amazing event for our team,” he says. “I have a vision of seeing a lot of people on our team being celebrated on stage. You could call it 20/20 vision.” Mike’s 20/20 vision is driving their entire family to be involved in building their Melaleuca business, including their 10-year-old son, Saynt. He shares Melaleuca products with his friends at school and sometimes even helps Lauretta on calls with other business builders. “The other day Saynt heard me talking to someone and asked for the phone,” Lauretta says. “I’m never sure what he’s going to say, but often it’s very valuable. This time he said, ‘You have two choices. You have two paths you can take. One path is this path. That’s not a good path. But the other path over here is happiness, joy, and success.’” Moments like this with their son remind Lauretta and Mike that building their Melaleuca business is truly about leaving a legacy for the future. “I can see us years and years from now. My son’s friends and their parents will still be in our organization,” says Lauretta. “We’re going to be working and doing life together, and he is going to be leading them as well. There is no price you can put on that. When you do life together, you’re elevating and lifting each other and truly making everyone’s lives better.”

When Lauretta Kloha and Mike Brandow reflect on their lives before enrolling with Melaleuca, they see a stark contrast between who they were and who they are today. Now that many of their financial burdens no longer trouble them, they are happier. And they live with joy because they’ve built a business focused on enhancing lives. Lauretta and Mike build their business side by side, waking up each morning ready to help someone else. They know that when they forget about themselves and help others, their own goals are met along the way. “The families that we’re working with have plans, goals, and dreams,” says Lauretta. “It makes sense to continue to grow our business because it really means we’re continuing to help others get a lot closer to achieving their dreams.” Lauretta and Mike are working on becoming better mentors and leaders for their team. Mike knows that he has become a better leader by being coachable and trusting his own mentors at Melaleuca, like his enrollers, National Directors Steve and Jennifer Morgan. “The mentoring we are receiving goes beyond just building a business,” he says. “It’s about having a whole life of learning and growing.”

Mike and Lauretta are focusing on helping others as they work to qualify for President’s Club 2020— with the added bonus of visiting Italy, fulfilling one of Lauretta’s childhood dreams.
