Today Lisa had the pleasure to interview one of her team members, Jodi Benusa! Jodi joined a direct sales company, L’BRI PURE n’ NATURAL, about 7 years ago and got off to a great start, and then the pandemic hit. She was working full-time as a social worker at a hospital and the stress escalated, and her side gig had to take a “back seat” and she lost her desire to grow a business due to the workload her job required.

But a few years ago, Jodi made the decision to create her own business, and was able to walk away from her full-time job at the hospital. This was also the time she made the decision to put more time and dedication into her direct sales business.

As you listen to Jodi’s story, you will hear the struggles she forged through and all of the personal growth that she has experienced because of her involvement and work within her direct sales business! You will also hear how just making the decision to say YES to a side gig in L’BRI has impacted her life and her success. Listen in and be encouraged by her stories as well as her words of wisdom to anyone thinking of saying “yes” to starting a side gig!

This is the second interview in our Summer Side-Gig Series where we have been talking about things to consider before saying “yes” to a side-gig with a direct sales company, what questions to ask and reasons why direct sales is an excellent decision if you are needing and wanting more options in your life.

Today Lisa interviewed an Oklahoma homeschool mom of 4 who said yes to L’BRI initially because money was tight, she saw how these natural aloe-first products had helped her son’s eczema, and saw how she could get the products she wanted for her family at a deep discount.

But when Shawna began to increase her “mustard-size” faith in what this business could do, and grabbed onto the belief that this could be the “vehicle” that would produce the extra money they would need to purchase a camper for the family to travel in, AND the potential for her to earn the car to pull that camper, she began to truly “wake up and dream.”

Are you sick and tired of living paycheck to paycheck, and have considered starting a side-gig? Perhaps you are a homeschool mom like Shawna, desiring more options on your time schedule. Connect with Shawna if you have questions or want more info about starting your own side-gig.
