Let me backtrack a little bit. My sister-in-law is a vegan and my brother is a vegetarian. Their healthy decisions have planted seeds in my mind throughout the years, but it wasn't until recently that I started to see the whole picture. They're not weird. They don't hug trees (well I do have a photo of my brother hugging a tree but that's another story). They simply eat as healthy as they can so that they can fuel their bodies to be the best that they can be. For years, I didn't understand the concept of "clean" eating because it seemed nearly impossible to rid our bodies of all of the bad things out there. What was the point?!
The point is this. You may not become a vegetarian or a vegan, but you can still make small changes here and there to live a healthier lifestyle. I started making smoothies for breakfast two months ago. I started with 1 cup of milk, 1 banana, 1 cup of frozen fruit, and 1 tsp of peanut butter. After month one, I challenged myself to make my smoothies even healthier. Now I have 1 cup of unsweetened almond milk, 3/4 banana, 1 cup of fruit, 1 tbsp of protein powder, 1 cup of spinach, 1 tbsp of PB2, and sometimes 1 serving of super greens and/or chia seeds. I'm not going to lie, some of those ingredients used to be foreign to me until my sister-in-law broke it all down in a way that I could understand. I'm blessed to have someone that I can trust, that has been down this road, and that will take the time to explain to me what super greens are. By the way, they're amazing so ask me if you don't know!
One more flashback. Last April some of the boot camp girls decided to participate in the 30 Day Detox by Arbonne. In all honesty, I didn't participate because I thought they were crazy. I'm hypoglycemic so I already eat fairly healthy and I didn't need someone telling me to cut out this, that, and the other. Sadly, I missed the whole point to the detox. It's designed to be a lifestyle change. It's designed to help you cut out all the bad stuff that's in your diet and to replace it with only the good. It's designed to change your habits and to lead you to a more healthy life.
I get it now. I see the bigger picture. I see how I can help change people (and the world) for the better. I get to be the weirdo now. Ha! All joking aside, whether you're looking to detox, to start eating healthier (they offer a vegan based protein powder), to find baby products (that can clear up the worst case of eczema), makeup, face wash, etc. Arbonne sells it, and research shows that it's the best product on the market.
"At Arbonne, we are all about being green — always have been and always will be. From botanically based ingredients to forward-looking green improvements, being earth friendly has everything to do with who we are and how we choose to grow.
More than just grounded in green values, we are putting them into action. We're taking "pure, safe and beneficial" to the next level through our efforts to match the purity of our ingredients with the earth friendliness of our packaging. So what's good on the inside is also good on the outside.
We are constantly looking for ways to not only minimize our impact on the earth, but to leave it better than we found it. Our green initiatives span sourcing, manufacturing and operations, lightening our carbon footprint with each step forward. Taking the lead in our industry, virtually all of our product shipments are certified carbon neutral. Working together, we grow greener every day."

Is Arbonne cheap? No. Are the products worth it? Yes. Therefore, I will teach you how to get discounts on Arbonne products. After all, I love to coupon!
So with that, my journey begins. As my business grows, I would love your support so please let me know if you would like to know more about the products, if you would like to host an event, or if you would like to know about the business side of Arbonne. As most of you know, I'm not a "party" hosting person so I would love any help that I can get from my "party" loving friends and family. Trust me, the rewards will be worth it!
