Monday’s reflection on the past 10 days has also brought
an incredible amount of pride and excitement in the business Jon and I began in
January of 2013. As a quick background,
we have always wanted to make a difference in people’s lives as we did in our
jobs before retirement. In the past 7-8
years, we have come across great companies with incredible leadership/training but the product wasn't right for us, then we found a great product but the
ownership didn't have integrity and the training wasn't there. In January, we went to Dallas with Rick
Parros, former Denver Bronco and incredible leader and friend. There we were introduced to Trey White, Brent
Hicks, Dr. Anne Smith, and the company EVOLV.
Originally, I told Rick we would go and listen, but I
was not interested in getting involved with a health and wellness company as
they were a “dime a dozen.” Since we
have focused on our own health and wellness for many years, people come to us
all the time with their products that are “wonderful and will change our lives.” We tried many of them, partially because
these were friends who recommended these products, but nothing really made a
difference. Hence my hesitation to get
involved with something new. However, I
did promise Rick we would listen and have an open mind.
After hearing about their mission statement that included
Helping Other People Evolve in all areas of their lives, hearing how the company gives back, as well as observing,
listening, and believing in the integrity of Trey, Brent, Dr. Anne and the entire team I began lowering my guard and listening more intently. We were educated on the science behind the products by Dr. Anne. Products that no one
else has and are proprietary to EVOLV. The company focuses on true health, wellness, and
for some wealth, and there was transparency with everything from the physical
structure of the offices to the documentation and science behind the products. Time and again there was evidence that this EVOLV company was walking their talk. My skepticism vanished and excitement grew.
Fast forward nine months later. Not only have we used products like the
Limitless for inflammation, Activate for energy, shakes for a meal replacement,
Thin for an energy/meal suppressant and others, but we have asked others to try
samples. Stories of no longer having
migraines, allergies less severe, our pregnant and now nursing working mom with
two children daughter having more energy, Jon lowering his cholesterol
medicine level, taking pain away from an aching shoulder for my 86 year old mom, a
friend no longer in pain with fibromyalgia, and a testimonial from our 21 year old
nephew about reducing his recovering time from a ½ Ironman competition are just
a few of the results people are having with these products. Even our chiropractor/kinesiologist who has done
in depth research and investigated the Limitless product now gives trial
samples to patients where it would be helpful.
What has truly now become my personal mission and focus
is to pay attention to what people are saying about their health, asking
questions, and only if it’s appropriate giving out samples for people to
try. Any age (we have customers from
15-86), male/female, athletes or not, people just needing more energy, those in
pain, or wanting to lose weight are all people who can benefit from these
products. Jon and I can attest to our
own results.
After having my own health challenges with rheumatoid
arthritis, watching my sister-in-law surviving an almost fatal stroke, talking
to my niece who’s the doctor and can have 3-4 migraines a week if she’s not on
medication are all reasons for me to at least let them try the EVOLV
products. If I can make a difference in
people’s health and wellness including my own family, then that is my WHY.
