Networking with the Mayor of Huntingdon

[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column offset="vc_col-lg-offset-2 vc_col-lg-8"][vc_column_text]Those of you who know me probably know that I’ve been doing quite a lot of networking over recent years, and my main networking commitment this year is with Business Networking International, or BNI, as we affectionately know it as!

I started networking in early 2014 after being approached at a trade show and invited to attend a meeting. Initially my first reaction was “no thanks”. It felt very much out of my comfort zone and I just couldn’t imagine walking in to a room full of strangers and starting a conversation!

Anyway, to cut a long story short … “the rest is history” as they say!

Yes, networking works. Simple.

Of course, networking doesn’t work just by attendance alone, and it’s not magic! It’s been a big learning curve, and it doesn’t work instantly either (well, normally it doesn’t although some do get lucky by being in the right place at the right time!) But it has been a fantastic experience, I don’t regret it for a second, and I would recommend everyone to try it. Oh, and don’t judge it either! If you’ve never been, then give it a go. If you’ve been to one network but not another, then don’t judge the other one, give that a go too! They’re all different, and each group within the same network organisation is different too. Plus they all take a little getting used to, to get to know the people and the vibe of the meeting. You know, “don’t judge a book by its cover” is also a good mantra for networking!

As well as belonging to the BNI now I’ve also been a member of Women in Business Networking (WIBN) and 4 Networking (4N), and I’ve visited various other formal and informal network events too, such as the A14 Coffee Morning and Drive the Network. There are a lot of opportunities out there, you need to experience as many as you can.

But best of all, the thing I absolutely love, is meeting so many interesting people. Some people do jobs that I didn’t even know existed, and some people have achieved things in life that I didn’t know possible!

Take my BNI meeting on Friday, for example. We welcomed Bill Hensley from HCR104fm to the meeting, where he introduced his radio station and the advertising opportunities. After the meeting I said that I was interested in discussing things further, and so he invited me to the radio station today, to have a look at what they do and to discuss things in more detail. Brilliant!

Not only had I never heard of Huntingdon Community Radio (HCR104fm) … and yes, that is shameful since I’ve lived in this area my whole life! … but I also didn’t know how hard Bill has worked to develop the radio station. Largely run by a community of over 80 volunteers the station is incredibly successful, with a listener audience of up to 165,000.

On top of that, Bill has been Mayor of Huntingdon for the past three years (stepping down very recently) and has raised thousands of pounds for local charities during his term in office. He’s personally and professionally achieved so much to be proud of, and I felt really lucky to be able to listen to his story.

And all of this is because of networking, I never would have had this opportunity today if I hadn’t been networking for all this time. And, I have loads more stories too, all from the opportunities networking has given me.

Thank goodness I stepped outside of my comfort zone and took the plunge to network, I’ve learnt so much and it’s had a huge impact on my personal development.

See you at another event soon![/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

Product Party

Product Party

My earliest memory of them was when I was little, and my Mum went to a Tupperware party. I wasn’t allowed in, and I remember sitting on the kerb outside the house intrigued by what was going on in the front room of that house! And then asking my Mum what happened and what she’d bought when she came out – although I can’t remember the answer to my questions now!

Of course then I entered adulthood and thought that product parties at home were for old people … are they? Well, if they are then I’ve reached the age of enjoying them! And I always love a night in with friends, having a laugh, maybe a drink or two, and learning about new things.

And since joining Forever I’ve enjoyed sharing the products a lot, and a great way of doing that is by hosting a party.

If you’re interested in hosting a product party at your house then get in touch. You only need a few friends, I’ll bring everything along to demonstrate, and you’ll earn commission on any sales made in order to choose some free products for yourself!

Echinacea

Echinacea

[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”176″ alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_shadow_border_circle_2″ css=”.vc_custom_1469029398901{margin-top: -20px !important;margin-bottom: -20px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column offset=”vc_col-lg-offset-2 vc_col-lg-8″][vc_column_text]Echinacea is a natural remedy, widely regarded for its healing qualities, as it:

Fights viruses & fungi
Is an antisecptic, anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant, and
Can help manage abnormal body temperatures.

Echinacea is most known for its effect on the immune system, but it is also known for helping with:

Respiratory infections
Chronic fatigue
Allergies
Skin conditions, such as acne, eczema and psoriasis
Sore throats and swollen glands
Abscesses and boils
Tooth and gum disease

… and much more.

It’s important that the dosage instructions are followed carefully and that professional guidance is sought from a qualified practitioner, especially if there are concerns over side-effects.

The above information has been sourced from: Understanding Echinacea by Marjorie C. Green

Forever’s Echinacea Supreme contains both of the most highly prized forms of Echinacea; a propriety blend of the whole herb (purpurea) and the root (angustofolia), combined with goldenseal and grape seed extract for maximum benefits.

It is suggested that a break of 7 days is taken after 4 to 8 weeks of continued use. It is not suitable for infants under one year of age, or those who are pregnant or breast feeding. It’s important to consult a medical professional regarding any other concerns you may have with your health condition or current medication where appropriate.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

F.I.T. Products explained

F.I.T. Products explained

[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column offset=”vc_col-lg-offset-2 vc_col-lg-8″][vc_single_image image=”157″ alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_shadow_border_circle_2″ css=”.vc_custom_1469029459969{margin-top: -20px !important;margin-bottom: -20px !important;}”][vc_column_text]If you’ve ever done one of the F.I.T programmes (either the C9, F.I.T. 1 or F.I.T. 2) then you’ll be very familiar with Forever’s range of fitness products, which includes:

Aloe Vera Gel
Forever Lite Ultra
Garcinia Plus
Forever Therm, and
Forever Fibre

During the course of the programme you get to know the products very well; how they help you to achieve your results, how they make you feel, and those that become your favourites!

Other fitness products in Forever’s range include the ARGI+, Forever Lean, Forever PRO X2 Bars, Fast Break Bar, NutraQ10, Forever Active Boost and Active Boost X.

If that seems a lot of product to get your head around, then you might be right! And if it seems overwhelming, and too expensive, to start using, then you might actually be wrong! You don’t have to use all these products. What’s more important is understanding what they do and why you might want to use them, and then deciding on the ones that you definitely want to try.

Forever’s F.I.T programmes are very cleverly designed for the average person, but you don’t have to follow every step as a rigid process. You will be far more successful in achieving your goals if you use them in a way that suits your body and your lifestyle. And this is where I can help you.

Recently I was lucky enough to attend an intensive training course, entirely focused on the F.I.T range of products. But it was even more than that. We covered everything from Vitamins & Minerals, our relationship with food, fat & obesity, calories, BMI, BMR & AMR, exercise and sports professionals. I ended the day with a lot more knowledge, and a lot more confidence to share that knowledge with others.

If you want to change your weight (either lose weight or gain weight), maintain your weight over a longer period of time, improve your health or fitness, or just feel better about yourself then get in touch with me, and we can discuss which products might help and how. Don’t get me wrong, this is no magic wand, we all know that the key to success is your own attitude, and the key to change is through good food choices and exercise. But these products might help you on your road to success.

Anything is possible. You can change your life. Just give it a go and see what happens![/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column][/vc_column][/vc_row]
