If I could sit down with the version of me who fir If I could sit down with the version of me who first started network marketing, I’d probably grab her by the shoulders and say…

“GIRL. You are making this WAY harder than it needs to be.” 🤣🤦🏾‍♀️

Because here’s what I know now:

This business isn’t complicated.
But it will expose your consistency.
Your discipline.
Your confidence.
Your willingness to talk to build relationships.
Your ability to put others first.
And whether you’re actually willing to do the work when nobody is clapping for you yet. 👏🏽

I’ve learned that you don’t need to be the loudest person online.
You don’t need 100K followers.
You don’t need to quit your 9–5, become a full-time influencer, or suddenly turn your entire personality into “HEY GIRL!” messages. 😂🙄

You DO, However, need to show up.
Build relationships.
Use the products.
Tell the truth about your experience.
Follow up.
Remain a student.
And keep going long enough to actually get GOOD at this.

And maybe the biggest lesson?

Treat it like a hobby and it’ll probably pay you like one.
Treat it like a business and give it time to compound! 👏🏽💰

Swipe through my post because these are the 9 things I REALLY wish somebody had told me when I started.

And if you’re reading this thinking…

“Okay Candace, but what would starting actually look like for ME?”

That’s my favorite conversation to have.

Comment “NEXT” or DM me “NEXT” and I’ll send you the details. No pressure. No weird sales pitch. Just the information so you can decide if this makes sense for your life.

Because another thing I wish someone had told me? You don’t have to leave the boardroom to build something that belongs to you. 🫶🏽

But in all seriousness, the world lost an absolute But in all seriousness, the world lost an absolute Gem yesterday, and this old crazy world of ours will never be the same. 💔

Dolly Parton was all of the good and light this world needed and I know we all knew there was so much more work she wanted to do!

Beyond the rhinestones, big hair, music and that unmistakable voice, Dolly used her money, platform and influence to actually DO GOOD.

She created the Imagination Library to put books into the hands of children regardless of their family’s income. 📚

She poured millions into education, scholarships and communities in need. She supported families devastated by the East Tennessee wildfires and donated $1 MILLION to Vanderbilt for COVID-19 research that helped support development of the Moderna vaccine.

And one of the things I respected most? Dolly made room for EVERYBODY. 🫶🏽

She openly supported the LGBTQ+ community, spoke out against racial injustice and made it clear that Black lives mattered.

She didn’t just talk about diversity, equity and inclusion. She LIVED it.

Through access.
Through opportunity.
Through generosity.
Through kindness.
And through ACTION.

She showed us that you can build an empire, stand firmly in who you are AND still make room at the table for people who may not look, love, live, believe or vote like you.

THAT is a legacy. 🤍

I hope her family, friends, and fans all around the world can continue to live out her legacy, her wishes, and all the good things as Dolly herself would have!

Maybe we honor her best by continuing to do exactly that — dream bigger, love people, help where we can and leave this world a little better than we found it.

Take your rest Auntie Dolly….a job well done. 🫶🏽🤍

Father’s Day Gift Guide

Hey Guys! Father’s Day is just around the corner (Sunday, June 18th), and if you’re anything like me, you always struggle with what to get your “old man!” Well for some reason, this year shopping for my dad will be a lot easier.  My dad turned 60 this past November, and with his older age, he has now turned over a new leaf and has started being more vocal about things he wants and things he would like to do.

So this gift guide started a couple weekends ago when I was face-timing with my brother and his kids, and my dad was there too, and he popped on the screen and saw my husbands sunglasses and made the comment / subtle hint that “those sunglasses sure would be a good gift idea for father’s day!” haha I about died laughing!  My dad is the type that NEVER asks for anything, and you could literally go pick a rock from your backyard, wrap it up and give it to him, and he would think it was the best thing since sliced bread.  So for him to drop his subtle, but not so subtle hint about the sunglasses, that kicked my gears into overdrive and I started to think of other things that my dad may like.

So I put together this little gift guide to help you figure out what to get that special father figure in your life.  Happy Shopping everyone! 🙂

Rayban Classic Black Wayfarers – I think this look absolutely perfect on just about anyone, male or female.  They are very slimming and flattering on the face and the classic looks goes with just about any outfit, whether casual or more dressed up.

Issey Miyake Cologne – This cologne has been one of my absolute favorites for as long as I can remember.  I have purchased this several times over the last ten years for my husband.  This was the only cologne my brother would wear when he was in high school, and I remember loving the scent. So my first gift giving occasion I had with my now husband back when we were just dating, of course the only option was to get him some “Issey” as my brother would say!

Beats by Dr. Dre (Wireless Earbuds) – These are a new staple in my house.  I got my husband Justin a pair a few weeks ago, and he literally does not go anywhere without them.  I figured for my dad, these would be good for him to use while mowing the yard.

Relic Troy Dual Time Men’s Leather Watch – I came across this watch and it just looked like a timeless piece. One that can go with just about anything, not too big, and not flashy.

Tommy Hilfiger Gingham Dress Shirt – I just love gingham print on men. Its slimming and flattering for all. And that fact that is TH, you know the quality is great, and it comes in many color options, as well as fit options.  This is also versatile in the sense that it can be worn in the fall, or in the spring/summer with the sleeves rolled up for that classic preppy look.

Sperry Top Siders – Again, a summer staple that you can’t go without. These shoes are so comfortable and so easy to just slide on and go.  Not to mention they lasts FOREVER!!

Kiehls Men’s Travel Set – Every man needs a travel bag with all of their skincare and shaving essentials ready to go at all times. This little kits has everything your man/dad could need.

    These are some great ideas! We’ve rotated through the same few gifts over the past several years. When we were little we’d either get him a dress shirt for work, golf balls, a new tie, or a bag of coffee. He’s a simple man. 😉

      I know. Dads seem to be the hardest to buy for, but when you think about it they end up being the easiest!! 🙂
