The Truth About Success and Fulfillment
My coffee is getting cold, and I need to get this off my chest.
The other day, someone asked me, “But you have everything! How could you have been unhappy?”
And I get it. From the outside, it might look like I’ve figured it all out—that I’ve cracked the code on success. That I’m effortlessly juggling business, life, and motherhood.
But let me be real with you—there’s a difference between being unhappy and being unfulfilled.
For years, I worked hard, climbed the ranks, and hit the milestones I thought would make me feel successful. But when I got there, I realized something: the success I chased wasn’t what I thought it would be.
Chasing the Wrong Version of Success
I spent 11 years building a business with an essential oil company. I poured my heart into it. I truly believed in what I was doing. But if I’m being honest… something felt off.
I remember attending Ray Higdon’s events alone, walking into rooms filled with 200 hundred people I didn’t know. Yet, despite being surrounded by driven, ambitious individuals, I felt a quiet tug inside—Is this really where I’m supposed to be?
At the time, I ignored it. I told myself that if I just worked harder, if I hit the next milestone, then I’d finally feel like I made it.
But when I finally reached the top—rank, income, speaking on stages—I realized something heartbreaking: the people I thought were my friends were only there when I was winning.
I wasn’t burnt out from working hard. I was burnt out from chasing the wrong thing.
The Shift That Changed Everything
Society had tricked me into believing that money, success, and achievements would bring fulfillment. But the truth is, no amount of external success can fill the gap when you’re out of alignment with your purpose.
That’s when I made a shift.
I stopped chasing and started creating something sustainable—something that actually aligned with my values. That’s when I discovered bioactive peptides.
After years in the wellness industry, this was different. The science was solid. The results were undeniable. And for the first time in a long time, I felt excited again.
Because I wasn’t just building a business—I was helping people in a way that felt right to me.
The Real Magic Happens When You Align With Your Purpose
I see so many women where I once was—working tirelessly, believing that the next milestone will finally make them feel successful.
But here’s the truth: Success isn’t about reaching a rank. It’s about creating a life that actually feels good to live.
And part of that means taking care of the one thing that carries us through life—our body.
Aging Strong vs. Aging Small
Aging strong isn’t about shrinking yourself—it’s about fueling your body so it performs at its absolute best.
Because aging gracefully isn’t just about looking good. It’s about:
✔ Staying mobile so you can keep doing what you love
✔ Building muscle so your body stays strong and resilient
✔ Supporting cellular health so you have the energy to show up fully in life
Your body is designed to carry you well—but if you don’t take care of it, illness will take over.
That’s exactly why I created the 5-Day Lean Plan—to help you make simple shifts with bioactive peptides that fuel your body for long-term strength.
💡 Here’s some quick math: If you consume 600 fewer calories per day for a month, that’s 18,000 fewer calories—the potential for 5+ pounds lost without extremes or restriction.
But this isn’t just about weight. It’s about reclaiming your strength, energy, and longevity.
