I'm a woman, wife & mommy, trying to restore balance to my life. I also sell Rodan + Fields skin care and tools. I know how intelligent and discerning they are.
I’m a lawyer by trade, working in house for an insurance company, and mommy to a redheaded toddler. When I first heard about Rodan + Fields, I was not looking for anything else. I was overwhelmed by my full time job, the unpredictability of my husband’s new business, and a baby that it seemed would never start sleeping through the night. A handful of my college roommates became Rodan + Fields cons
ultants and started posting on Facebook. In this mix of mommies of young children is a cosmetologist, a lawyer who stopped practicing to follow her heart and teach, and women who climbed the ladder in the business world. I know that they would only promote products that were effective and a business model that would live up to promises. And I was looking older by the minute while they were erasing wrinkles and shrinking pores! Initially the promise of the business opportunity impressed me. My gut told me to jump, so I did. Over time, I have fallen in love with what the products and tools have done for my extremely sensitive, sleep deprived working mommy skin. And, owning my own business has created a mind shift in me. I am excited about the future, and actively planning for it. In August, I was finally able to pay off my law school student loans! I’m also chasing that ever elusive balance between career, mommy, wife, and individual! It is a series of new challenges. How to make dinner with a toddler attached to your leg. How to squeeze in a workout, or convince yourself that you lifted up the 30 pound toddler enough times today to count as a workout. How to dress so you look presentable, and make it out of house without the toddler pulling off all your jewelry and leaving little handprints of food/dirt, and wet marks that could be snot or drool. Which leads to the challenge of a seemingly never ending supply of dirty laundry, dirty dishes and a messy house! And at the end of the day, trying to keep the spark alive in my marriage.
