Let me start with a little bit of a backstory here: In January of 2018, a friend brought to my husband and I the idea of extra income by way of a shampoo company. It was doing amazing things for her (not just her hair, but her income as well). So, after discussing it with her and each other, it was decided that we'd do it. Little did I know that it would just be ME doing it after WE started this whole venture, but I kept at it because I had to earn OUR investment back. I'm going to be honest, I LOVE these products as I still use them to this very day, however, I didn't make it long on the business end of this one because in my personal opinion, the majority of the people in this particular company seemed only to be in it for the money and never took a break. That didn't motivate me and because I wasn't motivated, I didn't work at it.
Fast forward to today. By the end of the day today at work, I was done, exhausted. It's only Tuesday and I've worked almost 2 hours of overtime already. I'm just getting to the point again where I'm over the corporate world. When I got home though, I sat down at my computer and started working....for a couple of hours!!! Because it was fun(and simple)!
When I was debating becoming a Zyia Active Rep (Check us out here is you're not familiar! https://new.myzyia.com/anywhereactivewear/) back in July of 2020, it took me a few weeks. Not because I didn't love the products, obviously, but because, here I was - a mom of two, a wife, working full time outside the home, already running one business and in the midst of buying and selling houses. But, despite all of that, I joined anyway.
I always say that Zyia came at just the right time in my life, because towards the end of 2021, as I was going through a divorce, struggling mentally and emotionally and trying to get back on my feet, my Zyia family was there cheering me on. Each day I knew I could expect uplifting and encouraging messages and unending support from the entire community. Never once were they worried about a goal not being hit while I was climbing out of a pit.
This community makes me feel like myself again! Not just because the clothes are incredible and radiate body confidence, but because no one is telling me who and how to be when running this business. Zyia embodies everything I'm trying to overcome in my own life and allows me to not feel so smothered by everything that is real life. Even though, now, I’ve added in a blog, a cat, single parent life, dating and more baseball tournaments than my calendar has space for! Talk about smothered!!
I'm thankful that I found Zyia and the amazing community of women it brought into my life to push me to be a better version of myself and help me to get back to the me I lost for so many years!!
